Its nearly been 1 day without Pokemon showdown. I'm starting to go insane. It wasn't too bad at first if I'm being honest but then the symptoms started showing... I began having uncontrollable bursts of sobbing and I have been mostly in the corner and shivering. Pokemon Showdown was my life, my love, and it was taken away from me. For the past hour I've spent refreshing on Showdown hoping to myself that it would miraculously reopen and I could go back to my mindless joy again. Pokemon Showdown was absolutely everything to me, I've been sobbing uncontrollably while writing this and having spasms of uncontrollable hallucinations. I remember my first time on Pokemon Showdown. I could happily waste away everything I ever loved and owned on some national dex AG and random battles. I'm starting to hallucinate ogerpons every time I try to go to sleep now. I began seeing arceus staring down at me every time I tried to go outside and touch the forbidden green stuff. I just hear the voice of random battles room moderators scolding me for the 1000th time for suggesting yet another terrible set. I've been inside my bed while typing this and I have been thinking of just selling all my belongings and donating it to Pokemon Showdown just to get it back up. Wait, I see my beloved swanna outside my window. No, I must not give in, I just have to wait for the server to come back up. Waiting, waiting, please help me I need my beloved to come back online. Please bring back showdown, I need it...

For legal reasons this is a joke
.. Showdown has been my entire life for so long; I don't know how I'll be able to live with the sheer weight of the loss of this addiction. It is like a drug for me: the dopamine hits and I feel safe and at home. But now.... I am lost. I am lost without the application that makes me whole and I CANNOT BEAR life without it. For over 22 hours, I have struggled with my own intrusive thoughts telling me that things will never get better, that change will have to be made, that I AM NOTHING, and my thoughts are right..... Showdown is what makes me whole.
This loss has cut me so deep that I feel like I may metaphorically bleed out, for what else does my fate entail? My eternal destiny seems to be filled with heartache and strife, for as long as Showdown is dead... I am as well.
If only I knew what life was without Showdown, so I could at least have some silver lining... But is useless. Spending my days mindlessly laddering Random Battles formats is my passion, my dream, and most important of all, my life. Taking my one true purpose away has only been detrimental to my well-being. So please, help a Clodsire fan out, and let me see my child again....

Teddiursa ate Showdown's homework
mrowm
We all die eventually
same I'm losing my fuckin mind
If PS doesn't come back soon, I'm not gonna vote for the POTUS for the first time in my life. To the mods that think my vote matters, in the event that Ruins of Alph turns red as a result, I will take full credit for this historic protest vote.
If we all play the Chinese server it will feel just the same. It probably would appreciate the activity. Besides, a new chance to top ladder yourself?!
There’s a battle by post forum here, a little more effort but maybe can give you your fix
Its raining which adds to my copium
They will
I live, laugh, love, breath, eat, drink, and sleep for showdown. Without showdown I am not an epic gamer. Without logging on and immediately haxxing randoms on randbats ladders what purpose do I have? Grass? I can't touch it without clicking on the icon for Venusaur. I can't live without showdown. I can't concentrate on anything but loading up Stall on OU ladder and going to town with ELO decay and losing every game. I am glued to Showdown like its married with me. I can't do this. I have to now do every battle on fortnite custom creative lobbies.
