How to prevent Post holiday blues?

I'm due to go home in a couple of days and can already feel the dark cloud of responsibility and shit weather descending.

Has anyone got any tips on how to actually look forward or just deal with returning to normality?

Book the next holiday as soon as you get back! And/or an autumn mini break or nice day out for soon after you get back so as to have the next thing to look forward to. Also this may be too late for you but I always try if I can to take an extra day's leave after a holiday to ease my transition back into the real world, time to do the holiday laundry and sorting, generally set myself back up for work plus get a takeaway and catch up on telly etc...

Definitely book another holiday if you feel it gets you through and you can afford it!
I like to have the idea of a holiday in my near future - it keeps me motivated even if we don’t book it until much closer to the time.
