Condition of reduced emotional reactivity in an individual
Reduced affect display, sometimes referred to as emotional blunting or emotional numbing, is a condition of reduced emotional reactivity in an individual. It manifests as a failure to express feelings either verbally or nonverbally, especially when talking about issues that would normally be expected to engage emotions. In this condition, expressive gestures are rare and there is little animation in facial expression or vocal inflection.[1] Additionally, reduced affect can be symptomatic of autism, schizophrenia, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, depersonalization derealization disorder,[2][3][4] schizoid personality disorder or brain damage.[5] It may also be a side effect of certain medications (e.g., antipsychotics[6] and antidepressants[7]).
However, reduced affect should be distinguished from apathy and anhedonia, which explicitly refer to a lack of emotional sensation.
