Loss of motivation
Loss of motivation – may indicate burnout, depression, schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease, or Alzheimer's disease. It may also be a complication of conditions such as a stroke. A person should contact a doctor if their lack of motivation is severe or chronic or if they experience additional symptoms.
Lack of motivation can sometimes be linked to issues in your personal life that cause emotional exhaustion, or result from job burnout. Low motivation often isn't permanent, and various treatments exist that target the causes of a diminished drive (your healthcare provider can help determine which treatment is best for you). Medication and therapy, for example, provide significant relief for many people—who find it easier to accomplish their goals after treatment.
