Post-holiday depression?

by **blondie** » 05 Jul 2008 12:49

Been back almost a week now and I'm sure I'm suffering from post-holiday depression. Daughter and I are moping around the house all the time, wishing we were back in Icmeler........
Does anyone else feel the same way when they get back home? Is there any cure, other than to return to Icmeler as soon as possible? :lol:

Already planning my next trip - hopefully September or October. Daughter's also talking about going out there to work at some point - anyone have any helpful hints or advice for her?

Hi blondie.

Weve been back 3 weeks and are still feeling really fed up. The first week was the worst just moping about the house on an evening when home from work with no enthuiasim to do anything. Its a horrible feeling and the best way we found to snap out of it is to book agaain so you have something to look forward to. We go again end of August. It doesnt help that the weather is so rubbish, you cant even plan to have a bbq for risk it will rain. Oh well no point moaning I suppose, just popping down Morrisons to stock up on the Effes.

Hope you feel better soon

I've been home 6 weeks and still not quite half way to the next visit yet - in 8 weeks time.
I have to say I'm not quite so depressed when I come home in May as there's a trip in September to look foward to - but I'm a pretty miserable so and so to be around when I come back from the September trip I can tell you.
Andy's right, if only the weather here would get better it wouldn't seem so bad. It's a real soggy, cold day in Devon today - feel sorry for all those people who have come down on holiday!

Clare? I'm not Clare...

I think Im suffering from that depression too, just been looking at pictures from icmeler over and over, I've only been back 2 days. I think the thing to do is just to get on with things and just think that you've had a lovely holiday there, and just look forward to the next visit.
It didnt really help me to stop being sad, but after a week or so, it should..
I stayed at the Alvaro and had such a nice time!! Met some really nice people, Zaza, ibo, bob, yohan, mehmet all the staff that work there, and had a great time at the lemon tree every time we went, we always had a good laugh with Erkan and Romeo.. The weather back here in Devon is also a bit of a let down considering its JULY! It was raining as soon as we got off the plane, so that didnt help, I still wished we had missed the flight back..
I went to a BBQ tonight, but we had to eat inside because of this awful weather..

It is lovely in September. Weather nice and warm, not too hot. Prices are around the same. Only thing is as you get towards October the restaurants havent got all the food as they will be running it down. I love this time of year in Turkey though, as do the Turks themselves!! You can pick up some bargains sometimes with it being later in the season. Depends when you go in September. We tend to come back home around the first week of October. We have done really well this year with our holidays as we had very cheap flights, June with Easy Jet and September with Onur through Aegean, which we booked last year! No chance of this happening next year though! Hope this helps.

where are easyjet flying to and from and how much was it?
