Cringitis 

Inflammation of your whole body and mind from cringing too muc.
After looking at my sixth grade photo, I feel like I have cringitis.

cringekino 

When a piece of media is extremely embarrassing to watch, but also contains a lot of charm and personality thanks to the creator.
Person: 1 "I saw an old movie review where the reviewer had an alter ego of himself telling him not to watch the movie. It was pure cringekino."
Person 2: "Sounds pretty soulful to me."

Cringepilled 

Someone who has embraced their cringeworthy personality and interests without regard to what other people think about them, pursuing happiness instead.
P1: Did you hear Jake joined the anime club? What a loser!
P2: Nah he's cringepilled. I respect that he's pursuing his interest, and it seems to make him happy, so good for him.
P1: Actually... that's the most based thing you can do. Respect.

Cringent 

An ethnic slur for weebs, furries, and anything else in that category.

cringestalgia 

A combination of nostalgic & cringe.

Something that is nostalgic, yet cringey. You could also say "nostalcringe", but doesn't have the same ring to it.
That game is total cringestalgia.
That video is cringestalgic.
