When advertisements appear in-between television show breaks, you are uncontrollably overcome by a burst of energy, which is otherwise described as ad-psychosis.

Hydrogen Psychosis hahy-druh-juh n, sī'k'ōsəs: n. The Crazy Eye
A fictional type of psychosis probably based on nitrogen and hydrogen narcosis.
Symptoms of hydrogen psychosis are red eyes (hence the alternative name), confusion, disorientation, increase in heart rate, thought disorder, however it is not defined by a loss of contact with reality.
It is thought that the condition is not permanent and will pass much like the above mentioned narcosises.

Bob: Hi Sally, I was just wondering if everything was ok? I saw you from accross the cafe and, well to be honest you've been sitting there for
over and hour and you haven't moved a muscle.
Sally: Huh? Bob! oh Bob! Thanks Bob, I must have had a bad case of Para-Sudoku-Psychosis. I get like that sometimes when I get stuck
on a difficult Sudoku.

Date rape psychosis is a fictional disease mentioned in the Towelie episode of South Park.
The term was coined by one of the characters, Eric Cartman. The young boys had just gotten a new game console (an Ocama GameSphere) from Stan's mother as a bribe for dropping the subject of a very feminine, personal issue. While the boys were obsessively playing the game, Kyle's mother called him at Stan's house and told him to go to school. Kyle responded (still mostly playing the video game) that he couldn't because he had to help out Stan, as he was not feeling very well. His mother asked him what was wrong with Stan and that's when Cartman told Kyle "date rape psychosis" (on request), so Kyle repeated this to his mom as "Date rape something," who respectfully honoured her young son's excuse.

The Act of going on any sort of spree (Vandalism, Killing, Sexual, Screaming) after realising that you have just read the 7th and last Harry Potter book, and there will be no more.
Did you hear about the Massacre in that school down in Yorkshire? she killed 206 people with a broomstick with razorwire for bristles. Aparently, it was Post-Potter Psychosis. I blame Manhunt 2, but nevermind.

The idea that the masses in society have become mentally (and physically) weak because of the declining amount of time and quality of sleep they get.
In the Gulag Archipelago, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn says, "sleeplessness befogs the reason, undermines the will, and the human being ceases to be himself, to be his own 'I.'"
Instead of Soviet-era prisoners, imagine the modern society in which the majority lack sufficient sleep. The main difference here in modern society is that the sleep deprivation process is not physically enforced by the regime, but its rather determined by the choices of the individual. These are choices that individuals make that can impede their sleep. Commonly we see people consume products (fast food, caffeine, etc.) and use technological devices (phone use late at night) that will harm their sleep schedule.
Was it ever really normal for kids in school to have only a few hours of sleep until recently? Of course not, but the use of addictive substances and devices recently has allowed this to happen. The result of sleep deprivation from these products on a mass scale is that people are much more susceptible to deviate from societal norms because they lack the agency to maintain them. With people lacking the willpower to maintain societal norms, this serves as an excellent opportunity for regimes. Regimes will then craft narratives for the weak-willed people, and these people will naturally incorporate these ideas within their moral framework.

"That dude's life is literally just a 3-hour sleep schedule with a diet consisting of Cheetos and Sprite... and he is surprised he has low energy and feels depressed. He is the epitome of someone living under a Societal Sleep Psychosis."
