Anyone else watch Tv shows but than get sad when they end and try and find other shows but none can sadly fill that void.

Yes pretty often, and I've been trying to find an explanation for it, one that can allow me to prevent it from happening. And a hypothesis I have is that maybe it's because we see it (a tv show, book, film, etc.) as a source of happiness, it's one of the few things that makes us feel that way, and when it's gone, is terrible, idk because nothing/nobody make us feel that excitement in real life (?). I was thinking about my life, and I might need to do some other things, like meet new people, purse goals more actively ig, and not have as the main purpose of my day just watch shows, films and read books, because when it's over my life seems over too, and it's so hard to let it go. Anyway, I hope you're feeling better now, I can be weird and awful to feel that way.
