In the original series, Harry has already endured so much pain from losing Sirius, Dumbledore, etc. In the fanfiction, perhaps there are additional deaths or betrayals that push him over the edge.

The story could develop with Harry's friends trying to bring him back from the brink. They might search for a way to reverse whatever has made him lose his will to live. For example, if it's a curse, they could look for a counter - curse. Another way could be that Harry has a moment of self - realization and decides to fight back against the despair. Maybe he has a vision or a talk with a ghost from his past that gives him a new perspective.
He could find a new purpose. Maybe he starts to focus on helping the younger generation of wizards, teaching them how to defend themselves. This gives him a sense of hope for the future and reignites his will to live.
