I don't have much to say to make you feel better. However, I can say that the time right after college really sucks because of the giant reality slap. Look foward to the good things you have planned, and don't worry about snapping out of it, if you feel bad there's a reason for it. The only thing that sucks is that sometimes the reason is nothing more than life is being a bitch. I read this, and it’s easy to relate. I don’t have much to say to make you feel better.

If so, it cements my theory that all existentialists are bound to be depressed at some point in their lives. Wild guess here: Existentiatlist?
