We're here to help.
Some people say that Post-Potter Depression feels like a black veil of despair coming down over their lives. Many people feel like they have no energy and can't concentrate. Others feel irritable all the time for no apparent reason. The symptoms vary from person to person, but if you feel "down" for more than two months, and these feelings are interfering with your daily life, you may be suffering from Post-Potter Depression.
Most people who have gone through one episode of Post-Potter Depression will, sooner or later, have another one. You may begin to feel some of the symptoms of depression several weeks before you develop a full-blown episode of depression. Learning to recognize these early triggers or symptoms will help to keep the depression from worsening.
Most people with Post-Potter Depression never seek help, even though the majority will respond to treatment. Treating depression is especially important because it affects you, your family, and your work. Some people with depression try to harm themselves in the mistaken belief that how they are feeling will never change. Post-Potter Depression is a treatable illness.
We're here to help. Working with the loving, caring members of this group, you can learn to manage depression. And maybe, when the time is right, you will rise from the ashes like a beautiful Phoenix and realize that you do have more to live for - that there is more to life than Harry Potter. Change won't come overnight—but with the right treatment, you can keep Post-Potter Depression from overshadowing your life.

Comment by Sydney Sectumsempra! on October 31, 2009 at 1:18pm - I have the worst case there is. It's hard for me to realize that there's more to life than Harry Potter. And I like it that way. :)

aaaargh! I'm so pissed! Beedle The Bard was fantastic. I forked out 50 quid for the collectors edition. If she can't do 8 then she should do a prequel. Or
Hogwarts: a history. Or A History of Hogwarts. Ooh there is no limit to the amount of money i would spend to read a Lockhart book. LOL that would be fantastic!!

Comment by Katie! on October 21, 2009 at 8:21pm - soooooooooooooooooo sad...we really do need a book 8. very very badly. maybe we should all send Jo letters threatening to end our lives if she doesn't continue the series, it could be like a Misery thing!!

Comment by Kira Channing Biggs on September 16, 2009 at 4:55am - I won't be cured of my depression until I can actually live and go to school at Hogwarts. Wait. I'm to old now so I guess I'd just have to be a teacher and head of Slytherin.

Comment by MolliiiiAnn on August 2, 2009 at 10:43pm - After seeing the 6th film (for the second time) is when I realized how much I missed the series. My friend and I were talking last night, and both got really depressed when we realized that when DH2 comes out, that will be the end of a book series that we seriously grew up with. We started reading the books in 2nd and 3rd grade, and when the final film comes out, we'll have just graduated High School. We felt really sad after we realized that.
