when you finish a play or a musical and you feel like absolute shit afterwards. you have time to realize that your entire schedule was rehearsal, rehearsal, and more rehearsal. and you also realize that you have no life outside of theatre. im going through it right now, and theres been lots of crying, reading the script, reciting lines over the phone with the other leads, things like that. its emotional.
Friend- Hey, Erin, what's wrong?
Me- Oh, nothing... Just post-show depression
Friend- You do this after every show you're in.
Me- -nods sadly-

You auditioned. You got a callback. You made it into the show. You rehearse for months, making amazing memories with your friends, who became your second family. You threw absolutely everything you had into this musical. You fell in love with the music score, and knew everyone’s lines and said them across the wings to your friends. The performance came, and you did amazing. Everyone loves it, you felt as happy as ever. The curtain falls for the last time. You turn around and see your best friends, with tears in your eyes. Your heart sinks. You have an after party, which mainly consists of crying and hugging. You go home and sit on the couch. The next day, you don’t go to any rehearsals. You lie in bed and cry, while texting your theatre friend that you miss them already. You read the script again and again, and you watch the film while performing the show in your living room. You wish you could do it again. This lasts days, weeks or months for some people. It’s hard. Really hard. And only theatre people understand what I mean.
I miss our show soooo much. I have so much post-show depression.
A form of depression caused by uncontrolled feelings, leading to hopelessness and loneliness. Often originates from the end of a much-rehearsed performance. It may be acute, or it may last until the next set of rehearsals start. Usually, it involves walking offstage and into a metaphorical vat of frozen herrings topped with sour relish, which will symbolize your view of life until the depression has passed.
-Why are you covered in metaphorical frozen herrings?
-I have post show depression.
-Well, you can't leave the music field, Elvis. Guess you'll have to wait this thing out.
Best youtube videos to watch when bored. Make the best stories about murder and anything radioactive. Their shows contain numerous subtle errors, but it's all good because it's nonetheless high quality content.
I can't wait for the girlfriend to become the wife in The Infographics Show!

When you’ve finished a musical/ play and feel angry, worthless , sad and annoyed that it’s finished . You become so attached to your character because they resemble your inner self . You hear the songs on the way home and just cry . Post show depression only happens when a show has truly impacted the actor as a person .
Where’s Amy? Ah she’s not coming , said she’s got post show depression and just keeps crying .

When you've watched all episodes of a TV show and/or the show ends and you don't have anything else to do and you feel like your life has no meaning anymore and you just feel lost and don't even know what is happening around you anymore.
She/He:"The show is over. I don't know how it happened. Don't know why anything that's happening is happening. I think i'm having a TV Show Hangover"
Friend:"It's okay. Doesn't matter"
She/He:"Of course it does :O"
