What is avolition?

What is avolition?

Do you want to do stuff but are unable to.

Or

You just don’t care about doing certain things so you don’t do it?

I don’t take a shower because I feel I don’t need to because I don’t do much. I also don’t like taking a shower because it is pretty tiring/draining after I finish taking a shower.

I think exercise might be good for me but I can’t seem to do it.

I have avolition. I want to do stuff but don’t have the motivation to do it.

All I care about is eat and poop like a zombie, no emotions…

Are you like this with everything or only certain things?

When you say no motivation, what does that really mean? You want to do something but just can’t get yourself to do it because it tires you out or just can’t start it? What’s on your mind when you are in that situation?

I just can’t start it. It’s like laziness.

so do you have trouble taking a shower? how do you motivate yourself to take a shower once every so often?

Yes. I have trouble taking showers as a result.

I take a shower once every two weeks although this time its been like a month

Also I don’t wear deodarant

I shower once a week bcz my dirty smell disgust me, I would never shower otherwise. Music in the shower helps me. I stay in bed all day everyday, only get up to eat. In bed I am either sleeping or on this forum.

Doesn’t your bad smell and scratching skin motivates you, that’s what motivates me to shower once every week.

If I wasn’t obese I wouldn’t smell bad and would shower much less.

I’m use to the smell now also my skin never itches

I think we get used to our bad smell… I personally don´t notice it but people around me probably do.

I start to smell bad after 3 days of taking a shower, my family yells at me to take a shower but I wait 4 more days to shower so once every week.
