2 +1 | Peripateia |

Peripateia Explanation: Perhaps this is the word you are seeking - the Concise Oxford Dictionary defines it thus: (n) sudden change of fortune in drama or in life. The implication seems to be a disastrous change but there is no suggestion of a wake-up call or confusion in the word itself, although these would be natural responses to such a situation. |
