Paranalysis

1) Portmanteau - Paranalysis

2) A state in which one is paralyzed from continuing or beginning any form of analysis.

4) I used this while doing homework with a friend. They actually told me that it was interesting how I came up with that. I just saw a news article that was talking about paralysis and then a few articles below it, the word analysis came up.  I combined both of them together. It's meant to be more of something to describe a past situation I suppose. It's not one of those words that can be used that often in a conversation like "chillax." I said the word with both my family and friends, it didn't catch on. I feel like it didn't catch on because it's so specific, meaning you can't use it that often. In situations that someone would be able to use it often, I feel like it would definitely catch on.
