A self-induced healing coma you go into when you’re physically or mentally exhausted, whether by a severe injury or sensory overload. Usually lasts between 10 minutes to an hour. During that time, you’re unconscious with some occasional delirium. May involve self-freezing. It feels like a nice nap and it always leaves you feeling refreshed afterwards.
