Manifestations of Sumpong
Sumpong is usually manifested by those who were not able to sleep well. There is the absence of a cheerful behavior, and its expression is almost entirely nonverbal. These manifestations include:
- refusing to eat, work, or play
- being unusually quiet
- simply keeping to one's self
- withdrawing from the group
- resisting expressions of affection
- locking one's self in his or her room
- not joining friends in group activities
- not talking to the person concerned, or to people in general
These are usually efforts to get the offending party to go away, and if these behaviors do not work, the person with sumpong might choose to escalate them - foot stomping, door slamming, and shouting, for example.

Famous quotes containing the words manifestations of:
“That the discovery of this great truth, which lies so near and obvious to the mind, should be attained to by the reason of so very few, is a sad instance of the stupidity and inattention of men, who, though they are surrounded with such clear manifestations of the Deity, are yet so little affected by them, that they seem as it were blinded with excess of light.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
