Hey all You Twilight Lovers !

First of all i would like to say that I love Twilight and everything about and I've been dying to vent at place where other people can really understand how I feel and why I feel this way.

So of course Twilight is awesome but after i read New Moon i started to get pretty depressed. All of you who know that New Moon was the saddest of all the books really does start to torment you because all these characters that you've come to love so much are in so much agony .... I've cried some heavy tears after New Moon and I'm really hoping that my anxiety and despression will be gone soon.

Personally for me After reading New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn I fell into this hole of anxiety and I think its because i came to love and understand these characters so deeply that the deep emotional turmoil that Bella, Edward and Jacob go through is really heart ranching and u feel like ur going through the very same pain with them. It really struck a cord of me!...I'm hoping that I'm not the only crazy one out their who's been so deeply affected by these books to a point the this fictional world almost seems to real.

I know that their are alot of people out their who don't like Jacob but I really do love him... I'm actually an equal Fan of Jacob, Edward and Bella. I feel like I really do understand Jake and my heart hurt when he was in pain.... he's a simple, warm, loving guy who fell for this girl he knows he can never have... I'm sure all of u have gone through that feeling at one point or another. His pain is deep because he knows that even though the girl he loves has love for him 2 but its nowhere as strong as the love she feels 4 Edward. Edward is prefect is every single way possible.... and incredibly understand guy but I think that's we all love him soooooo much because their is absolutely nothing wrong with him where as Jacob is more close to being human...

I'm not ready to accept that Breaking Dawn is the last book. I was really disappointed at the end when their were merely only 2 pgs on their happily ever after. I feel like I got jipped ! She spent sooo much time describing all the non essential things that it felt like the closure that I needed as a reader just wasn't there. I felt the end was almost rushed, I would have loved more dialogue between Bella and Edward about their happily ever after so that I could have gotten my closure that i need so desperately. I really hoping that she'll continue the world of twilight with Jacob, Renesme, Bella and Edward and everyone else.

Thank You to all of you who read and respond to my post .... Its just a great feeling to vent at place where you know ur understood .... So Truly Thank You ....

hey.... remember even though you feel the characters are realistic, it's just a book.... i'm not telling you ro stop reading twilight.... but maybe you should indulge in some other activities that will keep your mind off the things that depress you

I know that your completely right .... i think i got involved with these books because i read all 4 back to back ... so i never gave my mind time to disconnect with the story and its characters. Im sure i'll be fine in the next few days .... its just bummer to feel this way right now. but thank you nonetheless

Dude i totaly understand what you are saying.
I was so attached to the characters, and i too am an equal fan of Edward, Bella and Jake!
I agree BD was kinda of a dissapointment, i wish that it didn't have the pointless details and instead more happy ending to it. I guess it was hyped up so much that we were all some what dissapointed when we read it.

I'm glad to hear someone feels the same crappy way that i do....I really hope that she starts a new series of Twilight for Jacob and Renesme.. But ofcourse have Edward and Bella be part of the story as well. Sometimes i really wish that i hadn't read the these books...
I just wish that she made the Ending of Breaking Dawn longer with a lot of Bella and Edward so i could have gotten my closure! :(

Lol Kusshii hun...dont worry..i felt like that too...maybe not as strong but i felt somehow that i was Bella and Jacob when it came to their perspective....and i think about Ed sometime too...but really no need to get depressed dear....we're there for you!!! Honestly if you take your mind off it and pre-occupy yourself and do something else...or maybe read something else then trust me it'll get better! I love these charcters to...and sometime i feel really involved but that only when im reading it...just me and twilight in a lil bubble...once i put the book down i burst that bubble....but i do frequently talk about it with freinds n all!!! You can vent as much as you like!! I will listen!!!:D

Thanks Radzs that really sweet of you ... not many people reach out to ppl they don't know.... I wish i could burst the bubble after I put the book down like you ... i dunn know ....its weird ... i don't get it myself I'm so wierdly rapped around the Cullen's world its creppy... I really do believe its because i read all the Twiligh books within 5 days back-to-back .... so i really didn't give my mind time any time at all to disconnect from this fictional world.... Well i'm much better now but i still don't like it because this has never happened b4 and the fact its over a BOOK ! upsets me further... atleast it would make sense if this was over an actual person *sigh* but THANK YOU so much i really appreciate ur words ❤️

I completely get where you are comming from. I had always been interested in vampire love stories, and my friend introduced me to twilight after we started watching HBO's original series true blood. I became utterly engrosed in the books and could not stop reading (although i wanted to during new moon). Recently i finished Breaking Dawn and was (and still kind of am) a wreck. I discovered that my depression after finishing the series was caused by a number of things, but the most prominent was the fact that I didnt get to hear more of the wonderful story Stephenie Meyer created and that i thought the twilight world was better than my own. I realized, after alot of thought and about a week of wallowing in twilight-depression, that i have to appreciate twilight for what it is, a story, and that even though i love the characters and sometimes wish i could be them, if i want to i can make my own fairytale just like twilight if i try. So go reread your favorite scenes of the books, listen to some twilight inspired music, have a good post-twilight-depression cry, watch the movie on the internet, and pick up your life again, but this time vow to be proactive and try to make your own forever with someone you love. As a fellow twilighter Im here for you.

Hmm i use to have a same problem has you... I was so attached to Renesmee after breaking dawn lol I wanted to be her so badly and have Jacob Black imprint on me Hahahaha..
But after few days i'm like wth
??? there just books not even real execpt Taylor Lautner My Jacob<3

I am not really crazy about Edward and Bella because in my opinion Bella was acting all up in some parts and i am not jealous at all because Edward is not real .....

Btw great words and sister don't waist your time from the books that are not even real and i understand really well...
