stupor
Near-unconscious state
Stupor is a state of near-unconsciousness or severely reduced mental responsiveness, typically caused by shock, drugs, alcohol, or illness.
Someone in a stupor may be awake but barely aware of their surroundings: He sat in a drunken stupor, unable to respond to questions.
The word also describes mental numbness from exhaustion or overwhelming emotion: The news left her in a stupor.
