Apathy

(For other uses, see Apathy (disambiguation).) Apathy is a lack of feeling, emotion, interest, and concern. Apathy is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern, excitement, motivation, and/or passion. An apathetic individual has an absence of interest in or concern about emotional, social, spiritual, philosophical and/or physical life and the world. Apathy should be distinguished from reduced affect, which refers to reduced emotional expression but not necessarily reduced emotion.
