Portmanteau of apocalypse and ellipsis.

Specifically, where apocalypse is defined as "any universal or widespread destruction or disaster," and ellipsis is defined as "the omission of a word or phrase necessary for a complete syntactical construction but not necessary for understanding, or an example of such omission."

The empty feeling experienced when the date of any sort of cataclysmic prophecy finally arrives, and NOTHING HAPPENS.

Much like being on the receiving end of a pregnant pause.

Get the apocalypsis mug.
Sudden feelings of fear and terror over the soon to be apocalypse.

When one is trying to love their normal life but can only think of doom and destruction.
"Every time I watch the news I start feeling apocalypsy."

"I got apocalypsy pretty bad today, I think I'm going to start looking for a cabin in the woods."
