I thought it was hypophrenia.

@SW-User I think it must be lypo- as lypi (λύπη) means sadness while hypo- (υπο) is used for something that's below of something else.

@HannibalAteMeOut Well, you’re from Greece. Can’t argue with that.

@SW-User I could be wrong too 😆

@HannibalAteMeOut There’s no official definition. Both versions are circulated on the internet. I’ve also read that hypophrenia means mental retardation. Your version makes more sense.
