Work aversion (or aversion to work) is the state of avoiding or not wanting to work or be employed, or the extreme preference of leisure as opposed to work. It can be attributed to laziness, boredom or burnout; most underachievers suffer from some work aversion. ==Causes== Work aversion usually occurs in persons who have previously been employed, and can have a variety of causes. These include: *Boredom with work.〔 Holding a boring job early in life can lead to the impression later that all work is boring. *Depression: A person who is suffering from clinical depression, dysthymia, grief, or other similar disorders may lack the motivation to work. *Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder *Autism spectrum disorders *Obsessive-compulsive disorder: Due to neurological dysfunction, the person becomes preoccupied with anxiety-based obsessions, and performs compulsive behaviors in order to cope with their anxiety. They are therefore unable to redirect their attention toward a job or employment search. *Panic disorder: For some, merely finding oneself in a work environment can trigger a panic attack. After such an occurrence, many are reluctant to seek further employment. *Post-traumatic stress disorder: The person has suffered from a traumatic experience at an earlier job. This may be a physical injury suffered on the job, a scary event that occurred while at work (such as a robbery of the place of employment), severe harassment or bullying from fellow employees, or abuse from one's boss or employer. *Abrupt termination: A former employee who was fired or laid off from an earlier job may be fearful of seeking future employment on the basis that such rejection may recur again. *Phobia: Some persons are simply phobic of the workplace. *Negative symptoms of schizophrenia *Side effects of medication, such as weariness and fatigue *Insomnia or various problems with sleep *The effects of chronic health problems, including cancer, diabetes, thyroid disorders, and many others, may interfere with a person's ability to work 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Work aversion (or aversion to work) is the state of avoiding or not wanting to work or be employed, or the extreme preference of leisure as opposed to work.
