Post Olympic Depression 

The feeling of sadness, melancholy, and despair after the Olympics are over. Sometimes resulting with laying around all day moping in your house, or watching video highlights of the Olympics to cheer yourself up.

Dude: I'm gonna be so bummed after the closing ceremonies, watching the last 50k cross country ski race broke my little heart.

Brah: Yeah, I am definitely going to experience post Olympic depression when they are over. I will probably sulk and and mope for a week. Maybe I'll watch some curling highlights to brighten my mood.....
