Getting depressed after a trip/vacation

yeah i am the same. especially when i go to my favourite island and then come back to the main land where there are cars and buildings and people and traffic lights and work and the rest of the crap we have to deal with everyday. i almost cry.

Same here...

Yeah I thought to myself well back to reality and I actually did cry.

Oh me too! Especially after a cruise. When I get back home I say to myself, "Who is gonna cook for me, make my bed, clean my house now?".

I always look forward to the next vacation.

It's culture shock. This is why you need to find ways to create that joyous feeling of vacation smack in the middle of your mundane life. Who wants normal to be unfun?

Yes it used to happen with me.

But before coming back from a vacation, you should think about the good things that happen in your normal life or in your city, such as your family, boy/girl friend, friends, etc. that will keep you excited to come back. Plus, a vacation is for relaxion and enjoyment, so you could come back to your normal life "fresh" and happy.

Always remember that you will go on vacations later so there is no need to feel bad.

Agreed. Everytime I come back from key west I get into a funk.
