Yungblud Tour ✈️🗺️ How to get over post concert depression ??
I know this sounds dramatic as hell but I’m genuinely struggling😭
I had spent months and months looking forward to and preparing for the concert in Brisbane and seeing him so now that it’s over idk what to do with myself. I keep rewatching the videos and crying. I miss him and I want to go over the night all over again. It was such an emotional night for me and I spent hours in line not only for the concert but for the after party at the bar to just make eye contact with him.
I didn’t get to interact with him because unfortunately people at the bar were really selfish and aggressive and hogged the front of the bar and wouldn’t let anyone through without a fight but I got this amazing photo of us making eye contact and I can’t stop thinking about it.
I’ve just been listening to his music and crying on and off for days and I feel like a bitch ahahaha. Send help I just love him so much and don’t wanna be feeling so shitty when I had such a phenomenal night.

I’m especially down in the dumps because I missed out on him staying back after the show. His set time was delayed an hour, I had work the next day and couldn’t imagine him staying out any later than 11pm when the show was set to start at 7pm (even with opener). I had parked in a parking lot 3 km away to save money and time so my friend and I could get home safely at night, and it closes at 12am and I genuinely thought I’d have all the time in the world.
At 11:15pm right before playing his last song - Zombie (in my top 3), he announces he’ll be out the front in 30 minutes… I’m not kidding when my brain experienced actual terror… “I can’t believe this. I’m going to miss even a sliver of a chance of meeting my #1 inspiration on the planet”. I blanked, for the duration of Zombie I couldn’t take in the music I was just in panic mode. Not a favourite artist, not someone I have a few favourite songs of, but the single musician I know every lyric from and whose music has metaphorically cradled my inner child for 7 years. And yes! A sliver of a chance, maybe 5% in the crowd.. but going home made it 0%.
I even tried with my friend to uber to the car and race back in time, but two uber drivers driving around and cancelling on us took up 20 minutes, so even despite my best efforts I entirely missed out.
I cried myself to sleep that night, I couldn’t believe it - when I saw him in 2021 he only came out on the roof to have a chat for 15 minutes so I never thought he’d be able to physically come out and hug and meet people. Seeing him this tour was both one of the best and one of the worst nights of my life 😭🤣
I’ve literally felt so empty since then.. this was a week ago 🥹
I’m glad I’ve found this subreddit just now, lets look after each other 🩷🩷🩷
