“Dimanchophobia:
Fear of Sundays, not in a religious sense but rather, a condition that reflects fear of unstructured time. Also known as acalendrical anxiety. Not to be confused with didominicaphobia, or kyriakephobia, fear of the Lord's Day.

Dimanchophobia is a mental condition created by modernism and industrialism. Dimanchophobes particularly dislike the period between Christmas and New Year's, when days of the week lose their significance and time blurs into a perpetual Sunday. Another way of expressing dimanchophobia might be "life in a world without calendars." A popular expression of this condition can be found in the pop song "Every Day is Like Sunday," by Morrissey, in which he describes walking on a beach after a nuclear way, when every day of the week now feels like Sunday.”
― Douglas Coupland

― Israelmore Ayivor

― Patrick Hamilton, The Slaves of Solitude

“My mom lives for it—or rather, she used to. And my sister was always more like her—prayer circles, Sunday services, charity drives… they poured themselves into it.

Like, I couldn’t force myself to believe in something just because it was expected.”
― Daniel Ruczko, Purgatory
