lethargism

A term used to describe the religion that many college students follow on a daily morning basis. Lethargism stems from the word lethargic, or drowsy. The willingness to stay in bed and sleep overpowers logical reasoning such as; coming to class on time, finishing a paper, or study for a test. Similar to the illogical behavior of certain religious activists whose points have been dis-proven through the use of science. Lethargism is exercised by a vast majority of people unbeknownst to them.

Post Lethargic Stress Disorder (PLSD)

Similar to PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), PLSD is a disorder that occurs when a human experiences a long period of lethargy (the person has done “nothing”) to then return to a stressful environment such as school or work. Usually accompanied by mild to dysfunctional depression and suicidal thoughts. Other known related symptoms are insomnia, tiredness, and emoness.

"After spring break, 203 people were diagnosed with Post Lethargic Stress Disorder (PLSD). Of these victims, 23 committed suicide the following Monday. The other 180 reported bouts of tiredness and a few reported cases of emoness.

'Yes, it is a growing concern, especially affecting people as young as 13 years old!' says Dr. Gibbons of the PLSD Research Facility of Orange County"
