By which I mean Post Vacation Depression.
Of course it's not a real disorder or anything I don't think, but the feeling is quite commonly known among those returning from holidays and vacation.
I've just returned from a Christmas Holiday Cruise - and oh boy, do I feel like shit! Feels really depressing. And especially with us Teens, going abroad getting out of College and daily life for a few nights. Making friends and spending time with them, seeing new places etc. then coming back to your old shit life. Great eh?
Has anyone else been there?

I have 3 more weeks of vacation. [spoiler]hue[/spoiler]

Sort of. Last summer I got to spend 3 months in the US with my girlfriend who lives there. Coming home was awful. But that's really only because I miss her.

Nah. I don't like going on holiday so I'm happy to return.
-
Oh god yes. I was SO sad when I had to return from Europe.

I've definitely felt that before, but I'm actually feeling the OPPOSITE right now. I worked so hard to maintain a 4.0 this semester that Winter break actually feels weird. In the past I would have been delighted to just sit around and hang out with friends, but I can't get used to the lack of work.

Nope, I usually enjoy coming back from a holiday and sleeping in my own bed. Don't get me wrong staying away is nice every once in a while, but home really is where the heart is.
