Cabin fever is a condition that produces restlessness and irritability caused from being in a confined space. The actual word is a slang term for a claustrophobic reaction that takes place when a party is isolated and/or shut in together for an extended period of time.The term possibly originated in the United States at the time when settlers would be snowed in to their log cabins and had to wait for the spring thaw in order to travel to town. Another possible source for this phrase could be that during an outbreak of some disease, people who had a fever were confined to a cabin as a quarantine. Most likely, the phrase may be associated with ocean-crossing sailing ships in which passengers had to endure weeks and months of slow travel while living in cramped cabins below deck.The American Heritage Dictionary of Idioms dates this phrase as late 1800s, and the Online Etymology Dictionary says it was first recorded in 1918.Some fictional stories are based around this idea of a small group of people getting restless and irritable from being in a confined space, for example extended space missions (see Generation ships or the Dark Star film).

One of the best-known stories about cabin fever is Stephen Kings The Shining which involves a family of three trapped in an isolated resort in the dead of winter. In Muppet Treasure Island, the muppets break out in a mambo dance number, celebrating that they all have cabin fever.Homer Simpson and Mr. Burns also faced this problem while trapped in a cabin that was buried in an avalanche in an episode of The Simpsons (?Mountain of Madness?).Psychologists claim that the principles which apply to cabin fever also apply to workplace bullying.
