>Would you consider lack of motivation an >expression of anhedonia?
Absolutely.
We do things that we enjoy doing. If we enjoy doing it, we want to repeat it. When we stop enjoying things (or everything) we stop doing things.
Its a learned response.
Lack of motivation (for me) has slowly crept up as I stopped enjoying doing the things I once did. If the action stops providing pleasure, we stop doing it.
