The feeling that a chunk of your heart was just ripped out after having finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, knowing that you will never again feel the anticipation, the excitment, the pre-release hype that ever accompanies a Harry Potter book release.
After gloating that she was right about Snape all along, post-Potter depression kicked in and the girl locked herself in her room for a week straight continuously sobbing and shouting riddiculous incantations at the door trying to make it turn into a portal to Hogwarts.

The depression one feels upon finishing a Harry Potter novel, or the Harry Potter series. Is brought about by the realization that one must return to the real world, and that reclusive reading does not make one a wizard.
Usually felt internationally in the two weeks succeeding the book's release.

Post Potter Depression (PPD) is an emotional state, and is generally inversely related to the Economic Post Potter Elation (EPPE) initially felt by Bloomsbury, Scholastic, and Raincoast Books, and felt soon thereafter by the world's retail booksellers.

Post Potter Depression may remain incurable for some, but many recover within a week of showing initial symptoms.
Most people, mainly parents, feel it is not a serious condition and will cure itself.

When a fanboy or fangirl watches the last Harry Potter movie, they are overtaken with severe depression, usually characterized by five stages: denial, pain, anger, depression, and acceptance.

Some anti-depressants to Post-Potter Depression are watching A Very Potter Musical AVPM or A Very Potter Sequel AVPS, rereading the books or rewatching the movies, or curling up in the fetal position, drowning you sorrows with hard liquor, and praying for an acceptance-letter baring owl.

It is quite a tragedy to behold. During this period, and after, Twilight must be no where in the vicinity. The mockingness of the awful acting will send the sufferer into a deeper depression, restarting the cycle anew.
The five stages of Post-Potter Depression

Denial: "No! It's not over! And...and Dumbledore isn't dead! Yes! Neither is Dobby!"

Pain: "Why? Why? Oh cruel J.K Rowling, giving us this gift then yanking it away so quickly!"

Anger: "I'm going to murder Hollywood! Grah! And you too, kitty!" "Meow?" (an innocent cat may die. R.I.P kitty.)

Depression: "I'LL NEVER GET OVER THIS! I'LL BE UNHAPPY FOREVER!!!

Acceptance: "You know, this actually isn't so bad. In fact, I--is that Robert Pattinson?"

(then back to Denial)
