As you can tell from the title of this blog post I am going to be talking about post concert depression. Post concert depression has always been something I have struggled with. For the past couple of years I have attended a lot of concerts so I have experienced the symptoms enough to know how to handle this, well so I thought. Normally post concert depression lasts for a couple days and other times it is weeks, but now this time it is different.
It has now been over a month since I saw Twenty One Pilots in concert. As the concert happened I tried to embrace the moment and really enjoy the show because I got to see them live for the first time. However, now that the moment has passed by I feel swallowed by this indescribable sadness. I thought I would be moved on from this by now, but I think I know why I can't.
This year I didn't attend as many concerts as I normally do and so therefore I forgot what this post concert depression really feels like. Also, not to mention I had been looking forward to seeing Twenty One Pilots live for awhile and once it happened and was over I didn't know what to do with myself and still am not quite certain. I think also when I dig deep behind my sadness it is mainly because seeing Twenty One Pilots live was honestly one of the best nights of my life. That night went by so fast and now that it is gone it is hard to go back to normal life. It has also been hard to find someone who understands or cares about a night that has changed me so much. It was a magical moment in my life that now as I go through my weekly routine I can't help but miss that night. Despite my post concert depression lasting longer than normal though I am determined to try and take my sadness and make something out of it. Here is to the few, the proud, and the emotional.
