I never said it ended years ago, but thanks for assuming that. I was just way more into the movies than the books, which were much better IMO. In fact, I've only seen up to the 5th movie, meaning they don't mean that much to me if I can't be bothered to watch all of them.
I don't know If I've ever been sadder than I am right now. Harry Potter is what got me into reading and therefore has become an enormous part of both my childhood and adult life. I remember getting the Sorcerer's Stone the year it came out as a Christmas gift, and I continued receiving each book after it came out for the following Christmas. Always growing more and more excited to discover what misadventures Harry, Ron, and Hermione would have me enthralled in this time around. I've read each book at least twice. With the exception being the fourth, which I have read four times. I finished reading the seventh book the other day, and when I was done I found it quite difficult to breath. I have become so emotionally invested in this world, that the very thought of it all coming to an end is unbearable.
Now, it is within the books that my heart resides. So I never cared much for the movies. I only ever saw the first in theaters. But even though I have known how it all ends for quite some time, the fact that the final movie is now complete really puts things in perspective. That being, that it is all over. It's as if I have nothing to look forward to. It is a sickening feeling.
I know, right? I've read each book at least 4 times. (I'm not even going to go into how many times I read the seventh.)
I even wrote a goodbye letter to Harry, Ron and Hermione when the 8th movie came out. Cried and all while writing it.
Sad, but true. What can I say? Harry Potter was my childhood. It's still a huge part of me.
I definitely cried a lot too lol. And saw the last movie 3 times :/. (but only paid once, and it was for only half a ticket since we had a free pass, so that's awesome, :D)
I'm just annoyed at all the Harry Potter fans whining about it being over every time they get a chance to do so (which is always because they're never doing anything anyway). I don't think there's any TV series, movie saga, or even series of books that I've been completely dedicated to watching/reading.
I was, like, severely sorrowful when it ended. Seriously. Cried for days and everything. I even typed a goodbye letter to Harry.
What? No, I'm not a loser! Really!
Nah, there's still plenty of fanfiction to read. So what if the books and movies are over? There are still a lot of things you can still fantasize over, like what J. K. Rowling didn't tell you.
POTTERMORE! google it...a potter fan's last hope
Just signed up for this October's registration, but I still don't really understand what Pottermore is.
nobody fully understands it yet....did you watch jk rowling's video on the site?
yes. she said it would be just like the series, except with us...
I'm not sad it's over. Just glad it happened.
Yeah like 5 years ago after the book came out.
People need to stop saying Harry Potter ended years ago. Whether you prefer the books or the movies, it's not over until they're both over.

Yes, that assumption was based mostly on other posts. But Post Potter depression can't take place until Potter's done.
I was saying for ME personally, Potter had pretty much ended because if my disinterest in the movies.
I know, but it's the equivalent of a discharged soldier having to get used to "post war" life in 1942.
I suffer from Post Pickles Depression.
I suffer from cancer...
not really..
Too far?
Not too far, just not funny.

P...
You didnt even read the 7th until now?! or was that the second time...? Because that came out in 07...
Yeah, it was the second time. Took me about 4 days, lol.
Cool story bro.

No, I can survive without TV shows and movies.
It's also about the books, dude. But the books will never be over because literature never ends. And books > tv/movies.. so.. yeah. :D

Does anybody else know that there's something called PPD which is a form of autism?
I'm a fan of Harry Potter, but I don't think I'd consider myself depressed that it's over...

You're right. Now that the ordeal is over, I feel like killing James Jr., Lily Jr., and Albus Jr. to compensate for my grief.
Too far.
I have a case of ''Thank God it's finally over''.
