stupors
Near-unconscious states
Stupors is the plural of stupor, a state of near-unconsciousness or greatly diminished awareness.
A person in a stupor is unresponsive to surroundings, whether from shock, drugs, alcohol, or illness: He found her in one of her drunken stupors.
The word implies a heavy, dulled condition rather than complete unconsciousness.
