Present Day (Takes place after season 1 finale) Iris's P.O.V.

All I ever feel now is emptiness. 

Eddie's gone.

 Ronnie's gone.

 Barry moved out and hasn't been seen in a few months. 

Dad doesn't talk much.

 Caitlin went to work at Mercury Labs.

 Cisco only stops by the station, my work, and the house on occasion to make sure I've been eating and active. 

I've been to the doctors and was diagnosed with depression. I am currently taking medicine for it, but nothing seems to help. 

My boss never puts me on any assignments having sympathy for the state that I'm in. 

The Flash only appears when there's a serious crime or threat around, and there are rumors going around that he is rebuilding some of the places that were ruined in the black hole. 

My depression has been getting worse by the day. At first I was uncertain of the reason the depression came, but the real scare came when the reason I was afraid of was confirmed. I had many tests done to see to. Online tests, river writing tests, and even those black spot tests. Everyone thinks it is because Eddie died, but it was confirmed otherwise. 

Eddie's death wasn't what destroyed me, Barry leaving was.
