How to fight the post vacation blues

[@laurenmurphy4055]

This has helped me so much. I just got back from a weeklong trip and I never knew this “post vacation depression “ was actually a thing.

I just returned from a 5 day fishing trip. I went alone but was surrounded by people who were there for the same reason. I found I was talking to 10+ different people a day about fishing and past trips we had taken. Now that I'm home back into my isolated world I have no one to talk about the things I am interested in here, day trading, raising a garden, going to hear live music at festivals, things I read and study about online. So I think a big cause of the after vacation depression is you're no longer surrounded by people with a common interest to have someone to enjoy the things and experience together, even if it's strangers. I need to find a way of getting that here with my at home interest.

Came back from 3 weeks trip to Thailand. As someone from Europe it was the first time I experienced something so different yet so incredibly beautiful… I keep just randomly crying now, feeling like I don’t belong to my country anymore… moments there were worth everything but coming back is simply painful 😞

I feel you. I was in Japan for 2 1/2 weeks a month ago and it was my first big trip outside of my home country. It's still hurts

Thank you so much for making this video. I just returned from vacation and I have the blues. One thing I did while I was on vacation was go to the beach and just walk. I want to do that more where I live.

Hope you’re feeling a bit better now! Feeling stuck with me for quite some time, and honestly it still does, (right now, hence why I’m here). All I want to do is go back, but it won’t be the same. Gotta find some things to do at home, did you ever go beach walking?

I found out that i also avoid listening to the songs I listened during the trip because Im afraid I might get nostalgic or get flashbacks of the trip. Not sure if that's one of symptoms

I tend to go a little crazy with that. When I go on a trip that includes great music, I tend to make a post-vacation playlist so I can remember it in a positive way. We went to Southern Spain a couple years ago and I made a playlist with my favorite Flamenco tunes. Always brings a smile to face. Did the same for Argentina and tango. Works for me!
