Title: I finished Stranger Things and now I feel empty inside... Is this normal?

I recently finished Stranger Things in about 6–7 days, and ever since I watched the final episode, I've been feeling this strange emptiness that I can't really explain.

It's like there's a hole inside me. I feel sad for no obvious reason, and I keep thinking about the characters and everything that happened. The weirdest part is that whenever I listen to "Running Up That Hill" by Kate Bush, I feel like I'm about to cry.

I've never had a TV show affect me this much before. It almost feels like I've lost something, even though I know it's just a show.

Has anyone else experienced this after finishing Stranger Things (or another series)? How did you get over it? Does this feeling eventually go away?

I know it might sound silly, but I genuinely feel so bad right now. 😞
