Original Post-

I recently read on the Avatar TypePad Blog, that people are becoming depressed because of the movie. People are realizing that the dream can't actually come true. I was trying to start a thread where people gave ideas on how to cope with it, as in reading Avatar stuff, Writing ( about avatar of course), painting, or whatever. Just give me some ideas and I'll try and help them out. Maybe people reading might even get some good ideas that'll help.

Thanks

From pt3

Another rant from me about this damm feeling. I sometimes feel like i wish i havnt seen the movie, i cant stop thinking of it and cant stop watching it when i get the chance too. I find ways to get to watch even if im going alone(yes ive turn into a loser, bc my friends arnt on the same emotional level as me). Its to the point where its kinda hard to think of other things except this.

I also think that maybe since i quit smoking few days before i first saw avatar is maybe im going threw withdrawals ? Ive been smoking for about 13yrs. I havnt felt the urge too so i dont think this is the problem.

Another conclsion is maybe i should just stop all this, as in no more forums to see and read etc, no more watching it, change or remove anything that reminds me of it. change the wallpaper etc.

I dunno anymore, what do you lovely folks think i should do? Or any helpful sugrestions?

Im i crazy?

Holy crap, part 4! I can dig it man!

I've just given in totally and let thoughts of it consume my entire existence now, I'm not even going to pretend to be ashamed about it. I'm just letting it wash over me like a cool waterfall. Even when I'm doing other tasks, actually especially when I'm focusing really hard at getting my newspaper out on deadline, I think of the inspirational music or scenes from the movie and I push on and I get that paper OUT!

Hey I may not be a warrior, but I can certainly enhance people's lives by refusing to give in to a challenge!

Well I'm new here but have been reading through the previous topics about depression and everything.

I didn't think I was at first but with each passing day (and each viewing of Avatar), I'm starting to believe that maybe I've become too attached to the world of Pandora.

I wasn't one that followed the movie from the beginning like some people, in fact, Avatar was never a movie I looked forward to seeing. I didn't see it on opening day but rather saw it just last week (and 4 more times since then). I even saw it twice in one day, which I've NEVER done before...I just can't get enough of feeling like I'm in that perfect world.

Now that I think more and more about it, I really have become too attached... The music makes me tear up whenever I listen to it, parts of the movie make me tear up, I'm happy when the characters are happy, sad when they're sad, etc... The first time I saw it with a friend, as we were leaving the theater I said to him something like, 'Man, you know what sucks, is that we'll be dead way before anything like Avatar becomes a reality. We'll never get to see or live in a place like Pandora.' After reading through these topics, I see that I'm not the only one who had that kind of thought, or continues to have that kind of thought.

Anyway...probably going to go see Avatar again this weekend... May or may not be a good idea but if I continue to find people I know that haven't seen it, I will find a way to get them in the theater (and obviously go along with them) lol.

Hmm. Anyone on this forum got depression because they believe you cant go to Pandora or a place similar? I have something that you might want to think about.

How big... really how big is the universe? Pretty big. What are the chances of another planet, like Pandora, being in the universe? Also, another point. Pandora is based in the Alpha-Centuri star system.

I think it was 4.4 or 4.7 lightyears away. Im going to go with 4.4 because someone else had 4.4 on their sig lol. The alpha-centuri star system is our closest neighbour. We are pretty close to being able to discover whats inside the star system and right now, at this moment, scientists and astrologers are working hard to find out.

Think about it. IF we find something in Alpha-Centuri, how good it will feel. If you think it will take a long time to discover, its never too late to help.

Just a thing to think about. There very well could be something out there.

You see...what scientists should be trying to perfect FIRST, before they try to figure out faster space travel and Pandora-like planets, is CRYO SLEEP! So that people like us, currently alive, might actually get a chance to see things like Avatar become a reality.
