NNPTSD

A condition a sailor has which makes him frequently triggered recounting his miserable days studying nuclear power at NNPTC.

NNPTSD is typically felt in the parking lot, while waiting to start the work day in the dreadful silence of your car after you’ve shut your phone off and put your name badge on. It can take minutes or hours for a sailor to recover from this state and summon the courage to go inside.

Typical trigger words include “welcome back,” “RPI,” “exam,” “Rickover,” and “mandatory study.”
Welcome back,” the Applebee’s waitress said, “can I get you anything to drink?”
Wade was despondent and didn’t reply, staring into the distance. His friend answered, “excuse him, he’s suffering from a rare condition known as NNPTSD. Those words brought him back.”
