Study Guilt

Commonly occurs when one has been slacking off/not studying hard enough in college, resulting in a poor grade on an exam. This may be due to frequent and out-of-control substance abuse, and/or generally laziness. One then feels the need to study very hard to make up for this lack of effort, even if exams have passed. (Occurs for 1-2 days, at most)

Jim: So did you get your astronomy exam back?

Matt: Yeah, last night. I got a B but Kevin got a D+; ever since then he has been studying really hard.

Jim: Study guilt: don't worry, it will blow over by tomorrow.

Thesis Guilt

Typically when writing a thesis for a PhD, the author will feel guilt all of the time. When doing any other activity other than thesis writing, such as watching TV for relaxation, the guilt will always be there. The only known cure is finishing the thesis.
