While a lack of motivation is not an inherent sign of a mental disorder, it is often symptomatic of clinical depression. Avolition can be the primary symptom of certain mood disorders, such as bipolar depression, or a secondary feature of an anxiety disorder, such as post-trauma stress syndrome

No , lack of motivation is not a mental illness. It comes because of peer pressure, negative feedback and a fear of getting scolded.
