I actually agonized over this class when it came time to write it up. On the one hand, island-wide crack. On the other hand, this is a serious topic that I know for a fact has touched most of us out there in one way or another.
I hope I've managed to settle on the happy medium, acknowledging the event while at the same time approaching the issue of depression in a helpful manner, to both your characters, and any mun in the class who knows what this lesson is talking about. Depression, whether it's over a move or another life-changing event, or some chemical imbalance that may or may not be treated with medication, is difficult on not only the people feeling it, but the people who are close to them as well.
At the risk of sounding sappy, today? You're not alone, guys, and it isn't hopeless, no matter how strongly you may feel to the contrary now and then. Promise.
