An indifferent person or "don't care" is a character that perfectly complements the picture of today's world and even claims the status of "positive". Having set some goal, he is able to concentrate on it to such an extent that other areas of his life (including concern for the welfare of loved ones) will fade into the background.
This ability in modern society is called purposefulness (some psychologists call it relative indifference) and is considered a positive quality. The absolute "don't care" differs from the relative one in that he is indifferent not only to the needs of other people, but also to his own.
The ideal form of indifference is considered to be reasonable "indifference". The attractiveness of this form of indifference is that, no matter what impression this person leaves about himself, he will remain indifferent in any situation, “not noticing” negative events. But if he does notice something negative, he will not attach any importance to it.
What is indifference?

Sociologists call indifference the conscious refusal of a person to participate in changes that concern not only his ownlife, but also the life of society. The indifferent does not care about others, is prone to inactivity and is constantly in a state of apathy.
Indifference is common to many people and does not occur without reason. One indifferent person from childhood got everything he wanted, grew up an egoist, got used to thinking only about himself and he doesn’t give a damn about the others. Another, brought up in an atmosphere of mutual respect, but found himself in a situation where the good he did was repaid with evil, lost faith in justice and deliberately closes his eyes to someone's cruelty.
People belonging to the second type, not wanting the unpleasant situation to happen again, move away from what is happening and often pass by cruelty. But there is also a third type of people. “Everyone gets what they deserve. Intervening, I prevent them from correcting what their ancestors or they themselves have done in their past lives,” is the way they think.
About the reasons for indifference

One of the reasons for indifference can be a mental disorder - a state in which a person does not know how to show emotions. Compassion is a feeling inaccessible to his understanding. Such people are often called pragmatists, phlegmatic, crackers, but offensive words cannot change the situation, especially if the cause of the mental disorder is a serious physical injury.
No less dangerous are teenage psychological and bodily injuries resulting from love experiences. A young but indifferent person, who even once experienced severe mental (or bodily) pain, can forever lose faith in people.
The lack of affection and warmth, experienced in childhood, is also a good "building material". Statistically, most indifferent people were "unloved" in childhood.
"People, stay indifferent!" (psychopath motto)

Specialists from the field of psychiatry often replace the word "indifference" with the medical terms "apathy" and "detachment". The stoic calm characteristic of an indifferent person is considered by official medicine to be a serious mental disorder.
Apathy is a psychological disorder that awaits absolutely everyone, both the lucky ones and the losers. It can occur in any person, regardless of his psychological and material solvency. The main cause of apathy, and, consequently, indifference, some doctors call boredom. It is from boredom, according to a group of specialists, that even the happiest families who have their dream job and raise talented and obedient children are not insured.

Fatigue, both emotional and physical, can also cause illness. An indifferent person often suffers from bouts of indifference (apathy), he is depressed, does not make acquaintances and does not make plans. His own life seems dull and useless to him.
A cheerful and sociable person can turn into an indifferent and apathetic situation:
when he is stressed for a long time;
not able to rest;
survived the death of loved ones or dismissal from work;
when an indifferent person, adapting worse than others in society, is ashamed of his natural needs;
suffers from misunderstandings from others;
is under pressure from the person he depends on;
when he takes hormones
Psychologists advise looking for the causes of indifference in the patient's inner world - where all his grievances and desires "live". Psychologists see indifference as a way to protect yourself from stress and negativity.
Many people suffering from psychological disorders deliberately put on a "mask" of indifference in the hope of shutting themselves off from a hostile world that has rejected them for so long.
Indifference through the eyes of a philosopher
Philosophers view indifference as a moral problem, based on the lost awareness of the significance of each person as a unique individual. Gradually turning into a tool to achieve their own goals, considering each other as a commodity, people themselves become things.
