If I see another person saying 4x05 was the best Skins（スキンズ） episode ever, I'm gonna go insane, so I thought I'd share with あなた the enormous mistakes the writers have made with Effy's character.
According to the symptoms Effy had in her episode, she is not only psychologically depressed, she is schizophrenic.
Here is the diagnosis for schizophrenia:
People diagnosed with schizophrenia usually experience a combination of positive (i.e. hallucinations, delusions, racing thoughts), negative (i.e. apathy, lack of emotion, poor または nonexistant social functioning), and cognitive (disorganized thoughts, difficulty concentrating and/or following instructions, difficulty completing tasks, memory problems).
The reason I bring this up is not to start a shipping war, I am only doing this because Effy Stonem is my お気に入り chracter and I think it's a shame they're treating her like this.

This is taken directly from the dvd commentaries. I noticed a lot of people wanted to know what he had to say about this. This is what he says during the last scene of Cook, Effy and Freddie together.
"The kind of point of this sequence, I suppose, I mentioned it earlier, is that Freddie makes the mistake of thinking of leaving and Cook picks up on that, seeing his bag. And I suppose for that, he's punished, is what Neil(?) the scriptadapter would say if he was here. But that's his kind of transgression - he should've been there for her through thick and thin and realize that something was wrong with her and he eventually does, of course, but it's too little too late. "
