Post Avatar Depression, also known as P.A.D., occurs to a person after seeing the movie "Avatar" (By James Cameron) after immediately realizing they had fallen victim to a runaway hype train, and wasted their time and money on a blatantly derivative movie that sucks even more than the terrible movies it ripped off to begin with.
Guy 1: Wow that movie was complete trash. Just awful.

Guy 2: *Sniff* I'm such a sucker.
Guy 1: Dude, are you crying?
Guy 2: Bro... I'm a sap. I knew the movie was just Dances with Wolves in space, but Hollywood leaned on the media to ram it down our throats so hard. I just... I really bought a whole car on the hype train and it's just the worst sci-fi movie since Battlefield Earth.
Guy 1: Aww shit... looks like Post Avatar Depression...
Guy 2: I need a hug and to rewatch Andor immediately.

A sadness or depression at the fact of not being able to live in a fictional world usually presented in a film, video game or book. It was given a name after the release of James Cameron's Avatar when a large amount of people expressed this feeling going as far as to say they are suicidal on internet forums. This phenomenon would later go on to inspire the creation of the Reality Shifting TikTok trend (Which is just dreaming, despite what the 14 year old girls would want you to believe.)
James: I'm really depressed after reading Harry Potter. I want to live in that world so bad.
Cameron: Well James, what you're feeling is Post-Avatar Depression. It'll go away in a few weeks.
