stagnation

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that Hans is most likely experiencing stagnation. In the context of psychology, this term refers to a failure to find a meaning or a way to contribute something important in life. This is accompanied by a feeling of disconnect with those in your life as well as society as a whole, causing you to lose interest in everything that is usually important to you as an individual.
