Wasted-anxiety

The direct translation from the Norwegian word fylleangst. It is the horrible mix of feelings you get after a really drunk (typical Norwegian) night out and you might or might not remember what you have done. If you remember, the feelings are there because you were so stupid. And if you don't remember it is usually even worse because you have no idea of what has been done or said and the only clues you have are for example pictures found on your (or others') cameras/phones or items found in jacket/purse/on the floor. Or in your bed. The feelings may vary between extreme embarrasment, regret and pure anxiety (especially if the memory is blank). Doubts about whether friendships are still friendships may also arise - and also doubts regarding your own dignity and selfworth.
