Languishing is a term used to describe "the absence of mental health."[1] In psychology, mental health is often conceptualized on a continuum from flourishing, described as a "combination of physical, mental, and emotional fitness," to depression, which is characterized by a sense of hopelessness and despondence.[2][3] Coined by American psychologist Corey Keyes, languishing is neither flourishing nor depression, but exists somewhere in between as "the absence of well-being," [1][3] or "absence of feeling good about your life."[4] Languishing is characterized by "a sense of stagnation and emptiness," as well as a lack of joy and aim, according to organizational psychologist Adam Grant.[3]
