Word: Workdrome
Origin: A blend of work and syndrome.
Definition:
Workdrome is a state of physical or mental fatigue caused by excessive work, where you’re too drained to do anything else. It’s that moment when your body feels like it’s given up—your hands ache from typing, your brain is foggy, and even simple tasks feel overwhelming. It’s not just tiredness; it’s the syndrome of being overworked.

3. “The only cure for workdrome? A warm meal from mom, some love from dad, and doing absolutely nothing for a while.”
