City Hangover

The unpleasant emotional effects resulting from visiting a large city, and then returning to rural or suburban life.

Side effects often include depression, boredom, and general life-reevaluation.

Especially prevalent when visiting friends who have moved into the city for jobs or school, in result making you feel like you are doing nothing with your life.
