Anyone just back and depressed?

[kribit]

We have been back for over 2 weeks, but now I'm missing Disney!!

The Little Mermaid came yesterday and my dd LOVED the show at MGM (this was the first time she's seen Ariel, Flounder, and Sebastien). It just brought back such wonderful memories of our time there and I don't think I can wait until 12/07 to go back.

I'm trying to convince DH to go earlier but I don't think it's going to happen. We've never been to see the Christmas decorations and plan on going the week after Thanksgiving. I asked him this am if we could go this year and his reply was "are you nuts?"

Looks like I'll have to become addicted to the boards here.

Me...we got back Sunday Morning (or was it Saturday night...it was 2:00 am). I still have not re-entered reality. We got our Little Mermaid yesterday too, but I know if I open it, I'll cry.

We got back on 9/23 from a 2 week WDW vacation and I can't wait to go back. I've been looking at our pictures and watching Disney related shows and movies since.

I'm trying to figure out how to convince DH that we (or at least I) should go back before our annual passes expire.

I steer so clear of the DIS boards after our trips becuase I get so depressed as we can't do trips but every 3 years or so. But once I'm starting to plan, I'm all over them again. I know the feeling! Even weirder is I get a small amount of sadness (VERY SMALL) when the trip is beginning becuase I know soon. it will be over and all the sadness will return. Ah well, such is life.

I'm nuts and I didn't just get back. I think I'm in a terminal state of missing Disney. The good news is we go in 44 days! 11/18 - 11/26. We really haven't had a trip this year. We went in May but it got cut short because our cat got sick. It wasn't a good thing, she passed away.

It's "normal" (relatively speaking) to get back from your trip and start scheming as to when you can go back. Don't worry, you may be nuts but you're in good company. One time, I think in 2001, we went Memorial day week. Stayed 7 nights at the BC, had a blast. We got home and just couldn't stand it. So, we went back for 4 nights over July 4th and stayed at the YC. That was back when you could snag a room only code for $179 at a deluxe. Good ol' days.

I am so glad the OP started this thread! We got home 9/25 and I am still so depressed. I think I spent so much time and energy planning this trip and counting down to it and now that it's over I don't have anything to do! I know it will be at least a year and probably much longer before I get to go back and I am having trouble finding a reason to even get out of bed some days. I know I have a major Disney problem!

I also got my Little Mermaid DVD the other day and have already watched it twice along with Aladdin, Lion King I & II, Beauty & The Beast, Lady & The Tramp, and Pooh's Heffalump Movie. Anything to get a little Disney fix into each day.

I am trying to talk everyone around me into taking a quick trip to Disney in January so maybe that will work out and I can feel a little Disney joy again... after all I do have some Southwest points that will expire in June if I don't use them....

Oh Disney....

Yes, me too. We got home late Saturday night. I still am having a rough time getting back to our routine. Our LM came yesterday too. I looked at the pictures and cried. I haven't even tried watching it yet. She is my favorite princess and Under the Sea is one of my favorite songs.......it reminds me of Fantasyland and Ariel's Grotto. I know that I am an addict going through withdrawal. I have to wait a year before we go back. I don't know how I can do it!

 

[Missy1961]

I got home Monday evening. (boo hoo). I keep thinking to myself, "this time last week...." It doesn't help that I've had massive amounts of work dumped on me this week.

 

[Tortuga Joy]

We got back late Saturday night as well and I keep thinking "this time last week I was ......" sad, huh?

No, what's really sad is when your children say they've had enough and are ready to go home and mom is the only one who wants to stay! What's wrong with these kids???

I want to go back so bad I'm trying to think of ways to fund it and sometimes my ideas aren't legal! I guess I'm hooked!!!

We just got back saturday and I'm bummed. We are already planning our next trip back. Might not be till sometime next year though.

Count me in!! We got back three weeks ago tonight and I'm missing it so much. I also do the "this time 3 weeks ago we were..." thing. The only way I can beat my PDD (Post Disney Depression) is to start planning another trip, even if it's a year away.

I already have the calendar out and the restaurants in mind, I'm deciding which parks which day. It gets my mind off my sadness. Plus, I listen to my CD's I made of all the park music. I close my eyes and can almost feel like I'm there.

Im not just back but im depressed

You know if you think about it, there are times that DISers get under each others skin, but when it comes down to it, we all have troubles dealing with the Disney depression. Why is it that we all have this unique addiction? As you can see by my siggie, our family has a trip coming up. After that trip is in the history books, DH and I will be planning our "us only" trip to POR next fall. In other words, we always need a future trip to look forward to.

I had the worst depression when we got home from our July 2005 trip It was so depressing to go to the grocery store that first day back. It sucked to be back home and having to do normal stuff like getting groceries. *sigh* I didn't log into the DIS for months because it was too painful. It's kind of embarrassing admitting that, but I figure, we're all in the same boat...right?? I am so obsessed with our next trip - I really NEED an escape from reality!

 

[kribit]

I'm already planning our next trip...can't decide whether to go before or after the Thansgiving "nuthouse," otherwise I would have booked it already. We really want to enjoy the Christmas decorations. My kids are even asking "when are we going back?" We had the BEST vacation ever and dh is afraid that we won't be able to top it next time.

I just LOVE this place!
