custody hangover

When a complicated holiday visitation schedule was agreed upon when you were a child and your parents divorced, and violating it now (years after it has legally expired) would start world war 3 in your family.

"Why don't you and Darren spend Christmas together? You've been dating for 5 years!"
"Oh, I still have a custody hangover."

home hangover

When you’ve been in your hometown or staying with your parents for too long, usually during the holidays, and are the point where you resent or are sick of your family and just want to get back to your own apartment. People can have different tolerance levels before they get a home hangover - for someone it might be a week, or it might be eight hours.

I should have cut my visit home over Christmas by two days, I’ve got the worst home hangover now.

Book Hangover

Getting so emotionally invested in a book that you think about it for days on end. Characterized by sadness experienced when the book is over and the realization that one will never have the opportunity to feel the way they did reading it for the first time.

I finished reading the last Jhumpa Lahiri novel and have the worst book hangover.
