taking multiple short naps (usually ranging from 10-30 minutes) to avoid immediate work, which often results in an unintentionally long period of rest because the time wasted by the previous nap places so much stress on the napper that he or she perceives the need to nap again
"How is your work coming along?"
"I started working last night and wanted to get two papers done before going to bed. Then I got overwhelmed so I stress napped from 9 pm until 7 am."

The two states of being are as a human being, or a hungry ghost. Semi-regularly you need to ask yourself which you are. Sometimes it is human. Others, alas, it is hungry ghost.

The hungry ghost seeks validity outside of themselves. Someone pining for an indifferent ex is a hungry ghost. Someone who arrives alone at 6:30 on Saturday night to a pub is probably a hungry ghost. Obsessive checking of mobile phones, chat sites or networks are clear signs that one is a hungry ghost.

The best thing to do is just stay home and ride it out. Read a book. Find some good clean fun.
Mate: How are you?
Dumped: I'm a hungry ghost, man.

Mate: What'd ya do last night?
HG: Urg. I hungry ghosted around The Oxford for a few hours, then walked home past her house, and HIS car was there...

Mate: Why'd you call man?! It's just rampant hungry ghostery.
