Breaking Bad : Post Breaking Bad Depression: how to overcome?
Re: overcoming Post Breaking Bad Depression
Skyler will never tell Walt Jr. that his father did not kill Hank.
Might not be so much that she won't tell Walter Jr. that Walt didn't kill Hank. We won't ever see that moment, certainly, but it'll more likely be that Jr. won't believe anything Skyler tells him ever again. He was not happy with her at all after she confessed her role in Walt's meth/murder escapades. She'd tell him but he won't believe her, or care.
Jr. will never trust his own mother again and that is the truly sad part. For anyone who knows the feeling of lost trust with a parent, this was probably the worst moment of the series, emotionally.

Oh yes, i never thought of that.
I guess jr and marie always think of him as a monster killer. Thats so sad.

Like ErgonomicSpliff above me said, it's not like Walt Jr. would believe her anyways - and Skyler can't really be sure that Walt didn't kill Hank, so it'd be hard for her to make a believable case. But due to the whole Heisenberg story being pretty hot, I'm not sure the truth wouldn't come out anyways. The DEA or the APD could find out through forensics or by Jesse's testimony if and when he's caught (as much as I love Jesse, I'm not confident in his ability to remain out of custody considering his state of mind after escaping the Nazi compound ) that it was the Nazis who killed Hank and Gomie, which would probably go public seeing how high profile the Heisenberg case is. I think Walt Jr. (and Marie) would believe the authorities, even if they didn't (understandably) take Skyler's word for it.
Maybe Holly is a blessing for Walt in this way as well. I found his relationship with her interesting and quite sweet in season 2. When Walt is feeling extremely bitter about having to donate his "hard earned" money to himself via Jr's charity website (a significant slight to his pride) when all he wants is to tell his family that he has made that money for them, he takes baby Holly to the basement and shows her his money, and tells her that he earned all that to be able to provide for her and the rest of the family. It was important for him to have one family member he could talk honestly about his, eh, accomplishments. So maybe Holly, who won't remember anything about Walt, Hank or the circumstances surrounding the collapse of her family, can still have fondness for Walt- in a way a child has for a parent who died when they were too young to remember anything about them.
Do you even know what honor is?
- A horse.
Re: overcoming Post Breaking Bad Depression
Agree, that it is likely that Junior will eventually find the truth, that Walt didn't kill Hank directlyespecially as long as Skyler tells him what Walt told herthat the Nazis killed Hank, stole the money and buried Hank there. Walt telling her that she wouldn't need to worry about them after that night, came to fruition. Not sure if she ever finds out Lydia is dead though..but maybe it gets back to her.
I'd like to think that some day, after learning all these truths, that Junior might come to at least realize that although his father turned bad by the end, there was a part of him that did it for the family. That part may have dwarfed the "bad" he transformed intobut there's still some of it there.
Junior may never forgive his father, and can still blame his actions for causing Hank's death. But if he just understands this, versus "My dad killed Uncle Hank", that's how I'd like to think it turns out.

Re: overcoming Post Breaking Bad Depression
even though i did not like Jesse in later parts, i am 100% sure, jesse will not get caught. Creator and director have made the ending very clearly explained everything, instead of vague ending to the story, leaving no stones unturned.
Jesse's final Run is his freedom and Redemption ( he completed the punishment for the sins which he brought upon Walt)
creators wanted to end this way by giving Jesse new life, or else they would have showed him with cops too in few seconds. this gives little happy ending which balances the sad ending of walt's death.
they had carefully planned everything and made a perfect ending.

Post Breaking Bad Depression: how to overcome?
i will never see Walt and his family, Jesse, Mike even Gus.
the story's ending too made me depressed, Skyler will never tell Walt Jr. that his father did not kill Hank. Jesse will never know that Walt did not wanted to kill him at Plaza.
i keep on thinking the scene in the beginning where everyone is happy in walt's house watching News about Meth.
how do i overcome this depression.
At first time i had this depression for 3 weeks.
