Hi
Just chanced across the forum and was wondering if anyone could help with what i see as a bit of an unusual problem.
I'm currently 47 and i had really bad depression through my late teens/early 20's. Since meeting my wife nearly 20 years ago i've been pretty much ok, with the odd dip, but nothing that i couldn't bounce back from. However the area where i do have problems is holidays. I don't mean post holiday blues, it's actually when on holiday be it at home or abroad. I've been off work this week and have been bursting into tears for no reason, had no energy and last night i went to bed actually hoping that i wouldn't wake up this morning!!
Most folk recharge their batteries on holidays and might get down when they go back to work, but not me! It's got to a point where i fear taking time off work but this is not sitting very well with my wife, which of course is getting me even more down.
Don't really want to go to the GP as i fear all they'll do is fob me off with some pills, and i don't really want to go down that road again..
