How can Percy deal with his depression in the 'Percy is depressed fanfiction'?

One way is through his inner thoughts. For example, the author could write about Percy constantly doubting himself, like thinking he's not a good enough hero. His thoughts could be filled with self - blame for the things that went wrong in his adventures, even if they weren't really his fault. Another aspect could be his withdrawal from his friends. He might start avoiding them, not answering their calls or messages, and when he is with them, he seems distant, lost in his own world of despair.

It could be the weight of his responsibilities. Percy has always had a lot on his plate, saving the world multiple times. The constant pressure to be the hero might finally get to him, making him feel like he can't keep up. He might start to think that one day he'll fail and cause great harm.

One possible cause could be the loss of a loved one. In many stories, this kind of trauma can lead to depression. Percy might be struggling to come to terms with the death or departure of someone close to him.

Well, in some fanfictions, Percy might go on a dark and brooding path. He could isolate himself from his friends at Camp Half - Blood, feeling like he's alone in the world now that his mother is gone. He might throw himself into more dangerous quests, almost with a sense of self - destruction, believing that he has nothing left to lose.

There are also fanfictions where Percy's mother's death causes him to question his whole existence. He wonders why the gods let such a thing happen to a good person like his mother. This internal struggle could lead him to have some tense interactions with the gods. He might even consider rebelling against them in some way, feeling that they are partly responsible for his mother's death.

One possible cause could be the stress from all his past quests. He's been through so much, faced many dangerous situations, and lost some friends along the way.

Percy might deal with the neglect by becoming more self - reliant. He could focus on his own interests and skills, like training in combat or studying magic if that's relevant in the fanfiction's setting. This would give him a sense of purpose outside of his relationship with Sally.

He should focus on self - improvement. Maybe work on his flaws like his impulsiveness or become more reliable. Percy could also try to expand his social circle. By meeting new people, he might find someone who appreciates him for who he is. He could also throw himself into his hobbies or work. If he likes fishing, he can spend more time fishing to take his mind off the rejection and also gain a sense of accomplishment.

One way to portray Draco's depression realistically could be through his internal monologue. For example, he might constantly have self - deprecating thoughts about his past actions and how they've led him to this state of isolation. He could also show signs of apathy towards things he used to care about, like his family's reputation or his magical studies.

At first, Percy would likely approach Apollo with a sense of caution. He knows that Apollo is a powerful god, even with the curse. So, he'd probably start with small acts of kindness. Maybe bringing him some food or water. Then, Percy would use his combat skills and experience. He'd be on the lookout for any threats that might be associated with the curse. If the curse makes Apollo vulnerable to certain monsters, Percy would be ready to fight them off. He'd also start to research about the curse. Since he's a demigod, he has access to libraries and knowledge sources within the demigod community. He could look for any similar cases in the past and see how they were resolved.
