Post Traumatic Exam Stress Syndrome. Common in students of all ages, shapes and size. This variation of PTSS is triggered by excessive coffee intake while revising into the wee hours of the night before an exam and still failing misiribly during the exam the folowing day. Can last a few short hours or as long as several days in extreme cases before dissipation. "Results day" is known to retrigger PTESS
