síndrome de la cabaña 29
Another journalistic invention for a situation of "own social inertia", where a person who is forced to stay at home with little or no outside contact gets used to the situation and rejects the idea of going out again. This occurs naturally when the holidays are over and we don't want to go back to work, or in the reverse case when we retire and want to stay at work. Behind the so-called 'cabin syndrome' there can be a pre-existing phobia, and an adaptation to unpleasant (external) situations that is finally lost during a confinement by state of siege, winter, disease, quarantine, zombie apocalypse, . . . It originates from the English cabin fever, which in Spanish is already known as "forest madness", "mountain madness".
