Hi there, I am here to inform you of the dangers of Post Convention Depression, or PCD. PCD is a very serious condition that effect thousands of people across the world! Let me demonstrate:
This is little Stevie
Stevie: “Hi!”
Stevie has been preparing for a convention for the past 8 months. This convention is called DragonCon. It’s a 4 day convention down in Atlanta.
Stevie: “That’s in Georgia!”
Thank you, Stevie. So for the past 8 months, Stevie has been preparing costumes, and making reservations for hotels and such. Anticipation started to build even more during the last few weeks before the convention.
Stevie: “Like when the grid came out for all of the Panels and such!”
That’s right! When the convention finally arrived, Stevie couldn’t have been happier! All of the planning and project work that has kept him busy for so long is now going into effect for a full 4 days of non-stop fun and frivolity!
Stevie: “WhooHooo Party!!!”
But this all comes with a cost. PCD!! The convention is over. Stevie is now back home. All the costumes are packed back up in the closet. The clothes have been washed and put away. Everything that has been keeping Stevie busy and kept him distracted is now done and over.
Stevie: “But I still have Pictures!……and ….and….Stories!”
Yes Stevie, but what will you do now? It’s still too early to start preparing for the next convention. What will you do now?
Stevie: “Wow, I never thought about that. Hmmm Let me just lay here on the couch and think about that.”
And this is how it starts. PCD starts to set in. Stevie finds himself not wanting to do much of anything aside from the needs of life. The only way out of this slump is for Stevie to get up off his rump and start experiencing normal everyday life again! (Exercise helps too)
Don’t let PCD take over someone you love!
