The return from summer vacation brings with it a mix of emotions. On the one hand, there is nostalgia for days of relaxation and adventure, on the other, the challenge of readjusting to the daily routine. This phenomenon, known as "post-vacation blues", can manifest itself with a slight melancholy and a desire to escape.
Why do we get depressed after the holidays? After a period of relaxation and carefreeness, the return to daily life and responsibilities can seem overwhelming. Routine can seem monotonous compared to the excitement of the holidays, leading to feelings of dissatisfaction and sadness. This feeling of melancholy is usually temporary and can last from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the person and the circumstances.
What are the symptoms of post-vacation blues? Symptoms may include sadness, irritability, lack of energy, difficulty concentrating, and a general sense of longing for the vacation days.
Can you prevent the post-vacation blues? Preventing the "post-vacation blues" is possible by planning your return with enjoyable activities and maintaining a positive attitude. Small changes in your daily routine, new hobbies or exploring new wines can help keep the feeling of novelty and adventure alive. Therefore, allowing yourself moments of pleasure and relaxation, such as an evening dedicated to tasting unique wines, can be an effective way to alleviate these symptoms.
