    It depends.

    Sometimes it's normal to lose your passion for something you once loved. If you used to be really into Pokemon or unicorns or baseball cards or whatever, you might simply outgrow a hobby. It's possible to outgrow relationships, too. If you didn't outgrow things and people, you'd still be at home clinging to your parents and watching kiddie cartoons, so that's just part of life.

    You might also just grow bored with something. That's normal, too. Tastes change, and that's okay.

    However, it isn't normal if the change is abrupt and affects everything you used to enjoy. That kind of global loss of interest in the outside world could signal depression or some other illness.

    You didn't really give us a lot to go on, but I hope my response gives you some food for thought. Good luck, and I hope you rediscover your passion for the things you like or that you find new things to enjoy.

    In some cases it is normal. I find that when someone I love trounces all over my heart and kickes it around the floor like an old rag I tend to lose passion for them.
