Abulic

/əˈbjuːlɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or characterized by abulia; lacking willpower or motivation.

Etymology

From 'abulia' (Greek for loss of will) + '-ic' (adjective-forming suffix); used in medical and psychiatric language.

Kelly Says

Psychologists noticed that abulic patients often recognize their own problem but feel powerless to change it—a tragic gap between awareness and action that makes this condition particularly distressing.
