Hello dude: Since this is your first post here on PC, welcome to PsychCentral! I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

I'm sorry I don't know what to tell you about what you are experiencing. I don't travel anymore. And I never particularly enjoyed it when I did. So I certainly experienced bouts of what might have been described as "depression", or in my case perhaps "foreboding" would have been a better term. But, at least in my case, I think it was simply a reaction to being away from the safety & familiarity of home. Perhaps other members, here on PC, will have some thoughts they can share.

By the way, since you mentioned you have OCD, there is a forum here on PC devoted to it. Here's a link:
