An ailment, typically suffered post-holiday, by chronic online shoppers who have become conditioned to finding packages gracing their porch upon their arrival home. The sudden down-turn in deliveries can result in negative physiological events. Symptoms can include, but are not limited to anxiety, depression, malaise, night terrors, random trembling, and/or a bout of the vapors. The condition has been known to be exacerbated by the sound of delivery vehicles and ringing doorbells.

Withdrawn

Otherwise known as introverted. These type of people usually keep to themselves. For the most part, people who are withdrawn need prompting to do something, but once they feel comfortable will be able to hold a conversation for more than 20 secs. Usually never do things first and have very few "confidants".

On the flip side, they can be very trustworthy and usually end up being great people if you can get past their natural barriers.
"Mark is such a loner. He never talks"

"What are you talking about!? He talks to me. Turns out he's pretty deep. I guess you could call him withdrawn... but not a loner."

theatre withdrawal

That awful empty sinking feeling inside when a play you were in is over and you know it'll be really hard to see anyone from the cast outside of the show. Also applies when it's the last show of the year and the seniors are graduating soon.

Common symptoms also include desire to cry, denial, and musical numbers or lines popping into your head at random times.

Common treatments include indulging in junk food and seeking the next opportunity to be in a play so you can set yourself up for more withdrawal later.
