Prompxiety

The restless, obsessive anxiety felt by AI-era builders who use tools like Claude Code or ChatGPT to vibe-code products at superhuman speed — only to find that more power creates more pressure, not more peace.

The loop: first prompt hits like dopamine → 10× velocity → brain quietly rewrites the MVP into a billion-dollar startup → can't stop prompting → body restless, sleep gone, repeat.

The cruel irony: you built a machine to work for you, and ended up working harder than ever — chasing an outcome no machine can promise.

Prompt + Anxiety = Prompxiety

"I've been prompting for 14 hours straight trying to ship before anyone copies my idea. My co-founder says I have Prompxiety and need to log off."

Poopxiety 

Constipation. Not being able to poop (go number 2, defecate, have a bowel movement) when one is nervous, anxious, has been traveling, is at a "foreign" toilet, moved to a new environment or has people around or near them. The inability to have a normal bowel movement in a relaxed way, due to changes in the environment and becoming nervous or anxious.

When I went on my 1 week vacation cruise, I had poopxiety all week and was unable to poop, due to the changes in my environment.
