The term semi-conscious state can be summarized as a STUPOR, which is a six letter word. STUPOR is a state of near-unconsciousness or insensibility, characterized by a lack of response to external stimuli. It is usually caused by physical or psychological trauma, extreme fatigue, or drugs such as alcohol or narcotics. STUPOR can also be caused by certain medical conditions, such as hypoglycemia, hypothermia, and shock.
