That time period after marching band season when you don't know what to do with your life. It usually begins towards the end of November, leading to weight gain due to the upcoming holiday season and lack of regular exercise that one had previously.
Man, I'm having serious marching band withdrawal right now. I don't start my homework on our old rehearsal days until 9.

Get the iPod withdrawal mug.ACW: acute cty withdrawal
Currently, there is no cure. It is the period that can be a couple of days to several years after you leave CTY in which you miss your friends very very much. Symptoms may include hacking cough, the "sniffles," and a horrible cold, as well as randomly thinking of a great memory and breaking down crying. The most noticable of symptoms is the tearing that occurs (even in the toughest of men) whenever one hears any High Holy Canon (Forever Young, Stairway to Heaven, and American Pie), however American Pie has the most noticable effect. Also can induce the sufferer to listen to Canon repeatedly for the following month after CTY, especially all the songs which were not played at the dances. ACW is the reason for the various canon lists on the internet. The most effective treatment is that one either return to cty, create a cty boarding school, or spend lots of time with ctyers.

Get the CTY withdrawal (also known as ACW) mug.A feeling of numb emptiness felt by all individuals once they have returned home from their erasmus.
Symptoms:
A general lack of interest and commitment in the day to day activities of home life.
An inability to get excited and/or happy over issues which, prior to departure for erasmus, would trigger the above emotions.
Listening to upbeat music first discovered whilst on exchange that now leaves one with a strong sense of nostalgia and general sadness.
Giving up trying to explain to others how special your time away was because the words do not yet exist that would do it justice-
And frankly, They dont even know.
Example:
Person 1: "Hey, what's wrong with Clare? She seems so much cooler and more worldly since she came home from her erasmus but sometimes she gets this glazed 'far away' look in her eyes every time I play Austrian house music"
Person 2: "Oh, haven't you heard? She has a severe case of 'Winscho-Withdrawal' "
