Hello darkness, my old friend

The beginning of the year was wonderful for me.
My partner and I were planning to have children.
The future seemed bright.

Unfortunately, 3 months ago, my partner tried to commit suicide (she survived).
After a few weeks she ended our relationship and I was thrown into the bad place.
My partner, family, future all that was gone.
The first months were terribly difficult.
I had to start taking medication to function at all.

And now we get to Blizzcon.
I watched the news in the evening.
I was trull happy about them.
I fell in love with the concept of SOD.
And my friends too.
I spent the next month searching for information.
I was thrilled.

Me and my friends agreed to play.
I was very excited to spend some time with them.
Forget what happened this year.
To feel that I have someone close to me.
To feel normal again.

My body needed and deserved this moment with friends.

But we all know what happend.
Server lockdown.
Friends in game and me unable to connect.

What can i say …

Hello darkness, my old friend
I’ve come to talk with you again

I believe i will be fine someday.
But i will never turn on your games again.

WoW, using something so serious to show how monka you are.
Go do something IRL for a week and come back.
You are…yes you are…

I’m not reading that

TLDR:

OP poster suffered from depression
OP took medication for that depression
The idea of SOD gave the OP a sense of fullfullment and a brigh future ahead
Blizz messes up SOD
OP is back on the road to depression again.

I am sorry you had these issues with your partner, deppression is not a nice thing to wittness, or deal with yourself. Many people simply seem to struggle to understand it. How has helped me out during dark times, I am hope you find it in your heart to forgive Blizz and continue to play :slight_smile:
