Thanks for all the replies. Its a comfort to know I am not alone and others go through the same. To me it actually feels like mourning a loss or something and it takes time to get over it all. For me keeping busy has helped, I'm back at work 2 weeks now and it feels like Christmas/the holidays never happened. I mean it was only Christmas day what 3 weeks ago now? It feels like it was a lifetime ago.

I think its just the sudden stop that gets us, we focus on the holidays for months, it give us something to think about and takes our focus of ourselves, its full speed ahead at 100mph all though December then its just a sudden stop and thats it all over.

I happened to be in a local shopping centre on Christmas eve, they were starting to take all the decorations down and it made me sad, I mean the end was in sight, the crash was coming.

But hang in there all, keep yourselves busy and cruise through this ****** month.
