Fictional Hangover

The period of time after you become enthralled with a movie, television show, or book, and are still stuck in that story's world. You will, for a split second, think that ordinary actions, noises, and, sounds, and objects are going to result in a different outcome based on what fictional world you have just emerged from.

Theater Hangover

After the strike of a set, when the excitement ends, the adrenaline dwindles, and one finally feels how tired they really are after the run of a show.
Now that the show is over, my theater hangover is so bad, I can't get out of bed.

Symptoms include pounding headache, nausea, and dizziness, as well as mild hallucinations induced by the many colors constantly flashing from the screen.

Coffee Hangover

Coffee Hangover is a stage of disorientation after a long day functioning on coffee when the effect wears off. This usually happens similar to a crash except at it's worst, usually on a long day of getting up early with minimal sleep. The coffee hangover consists of several stages.
1. Slight Irritation. You may become slightly annoyed or bothered. You probably are starting to lose some energy at this point.
2. Loss of Patience. You've lost patience with most things at this point. You just don't care by now and you can't stand being around people.
3. Mood Swing. You may become emotional, sad, or angry depending on your condition.
4. Disorder. By now you can't even walk straight and your words and thoughts don't make sense. You shouldn't attempt to communicate with another human being at this point.
5. Shutdown. At this point you have no energy left and you'll have to lay down. Don't even bother trying to sit up. You may pass out. Nothing but sleep, Acoma, or hibernation can fix this by now
I don't know if this definition makes sense because I'm on a coffee hangover.

raver's hangover

A state of exhaustion the morning after a night out dancing like crazy. Unlike a regular hangover, this is not necessarily brought on by any alcoholic beverage, but by sheer physical exertion.
A typical sufferer will sleep until late in the afternoon, be fairly sore, especially in the feet, and be ravenously hungry upon waking.
Oh, I'm fine, I was just sleeping off my raver's hangover. Let's go get pancakes!

debate hangover

A debate hangover occurs the day after a long debate tournament. Competitors and coaches spent most of Friday and all of Saturday competing or judging, so on Sunday, they are completely wiped out. Exhaustion, lack of voice, and sickness are common signs of a debate hangover. Gatorade (to help cleanse the system of caffeine, junk food, etc.) and rest are the most effective cures.
Steve: "Hey man, that was some debate tournament this weekend. I feel like crap now!"

Bob: "That means you have a Debate Hangover!"
