What is a lack of desire to interact with people?

A lack of desire to interact with people is known as social anhedonia. It is characterized by a reduced or complete loss of interest in social activities, a diminished capacity to experience pleasure in social interactions, and a preference for solitude. Social anhedonia can be a symptom of various mental health conditions, such as depression, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorders, and social anxiety disorder. It can also be a result of certain medications, substance abuse, or chronic stress.
