Olympic Withdrawl Syndrome 

That empty, lonely feeling you get after the Olympics have ended.

This is usually due to the feeling of unity that comes with the Olympics. The withdrawl makes you feel more alone now to the fact that your country is now back at war/economic crisis/other misc. disasters.
