You're overdosing. When it happened to me, I just stopped visiting and doing travely shit and kicked back at the hostel, and going to cinema.

Believe me or not, cinema helped a lot with those big noisy American movies because you're completely cut off of your local environment. It worked wonder with me.

I'm not even American, yet western movies were enough to cheer me up already.

I think it could be a combination of that and me being sick.

I don't know. I've never had a "travel overdose" before, and I've been in worse situations than the one I'm in now. All the plans and enthusiasm I had last week have vanished down the drain. Instead of considering where I might go once I'm better, I'm researching campsites in my home state and imagining motorcycling Alaska, stopping at roadside bars, and eating hamburgers.

Right now I'm in a developing country and am just sick of all the noise and pollution and spitting and smoking and dust. Where I live in the USA isn't too exciting and I'd probably be bored off my rocker there, but at least I could go into the woods and have a bit of privacy, work and earn real money, and not have to think twice before eating food from an ordinary restaurant.

Dunno, m8. Sorry again to rant. People are probably gonna make fun of me but it's okay. I've never felt this way and being stuck in bed is just amplifying it.

It happens. We all go through it in one form or another. Doesn't even have to be travel related. I call it a rut. You're in a rut right now. It will go in due time. Wish I had better advice, but I don't.

My overdose didn't come during my longest or hardest travel. It just popped up because I was lower in energy or maybe burnt out after so many overall travels.
I really wished too to keep traveling, but just fucking somewhere cold and quiet instead (I was in a 1/3 world hot as balls country as well).

Up and downs to me had a one to two-month long period. Force through and know that your mood will lift up at some point, focus on that, it helps.

Don't be sorry anon. It's a common thing, especially for immigrants or expats. After a couple of years abroad, many sort of idealize home and despize the country they're in periodically.

Coming back home in this condition is a bit bitter sweet actually. Thing is, on short term, you'll enjoy far more things that if you came back with your spirit already focused to leaving for traveling somewhere else.
However, I did that and got bored out of my mind after 6 months and left again : there wasn't enough things to do, and honest to God I had trouble to connect with people who do not travel (I was very quickly bored with them, like I was fully sperging out).

I know that may sound like some tumblr bullshit, but if you travel long enough, you never really feel home/at peace anywhere.

Other things to reduce the pressure temporarily :
- enjoy something in the country that you cannot do back home : like in Cambodia, enjoy a fairly priced massage and do stupid BS on a motorbike or something,
- go to the countryside : developing countries cities are way too noisy and overwhelming, getting to a place where you don't have to speak to anyone (especially broken English) and be by yourself is great,
- hang out with other foreigners : there is a reason immigrants stick together.

I was going to suggest a massage, but another anon mentioned it, so let me raise with a prostitute.

But first just try to get better again, you may feel overdosed/burned out because you're sick.

Where are you exactly, btw?
