How to use "Apathy" in context?
Who is apathy?
There is no single answer to this question as apathy can be defined in many diverse ways. Nevertheless, a general definition of apathy would be a lack of interest, interest, or involvement in things or people. This can be due to various reasons, such as personal distress, socioeconomic disadvantage, or simply boredom.
One of the most common reasons people report apathy is because they feel overwhelmed by the challenges they face. This can be exacerbated by chronic conditions like depression, ADHD, or chronic pain, which can make it difficult to summon up the energy or motivation to take up any new activities.
