Post Disney Depression

I have been diagnosed with PDD or Post Disney Depression. It’s that aching feeling in your heart after your Disney vacation is over and you have to go back to reality. For me it’s 10 times worse because I had the pleasure of completing a Disney College Program where I worked and lived at Walt Disney World for 6 months straight. Working there was as amazing as it seems I had the opportunity to work in the parks everyday and enjoy the parks as a guest on my offdays. I have to be honest I have no idea what to do with myself now that my program is over. The weather is below zero degrees here, I’m snowed in and l want nothing more than to visit the parks. Life after Disney is so weird because I’m use to walking outside and knowing it’s hot,knowing I can go to whatever park I want to visit today. I miss earl of sandwich, and I desperately want a mickey ice cream sandwich .Post Disney depression can hit you hard and unexpectedly, but In this post I will list some of the things I do to cure my Post Disney Depression !

Listening to Disney playlist !
No matter what music platform you use Spotify , Apple Music, or TIDAL there are going to be Disney playlist ! You obviously love Disney movies so listening to the soundtracks from some of our favorite movies would definitely ease up on some of the pressure.
Listening to the music from the parks.
On my first Disney College Program I worked in Epcot and I fell in love with the soundtrack ! I found myself missing it at home so I found the soundtrack on YouTube ! I will provide the link to that video here . If you ever find yourself missing your parks soundtrack you can always find it on YouTube .
Hanging your mickey ears on your wall .
After your program or vacation you will have a ton of mickey ears you have accumulated over time. These Mickey Ears can make some really cute wall art and remind you of your time at the happiest place on earth.
Wearing Disney merch!
Wearing Disney merch is such a good conversation starter wearing it will have people asking questions and you get to talk about the thing you love the most , which is Disney!
Having a Disney lock screen.
The item I use most in my everyday life is my phone and every time I look at my phone I see my lock screen which is the castle ! It keeps the memory of the castle close in my mind !
Planning a Disney vacation even if it's fake.
I love to go on the Disney website and plan full vacations, book resort rooms, set up meal plans, add flights. Then exit the websit. I do this often because it is great to dream and imagine whet your next trip will be like as well as being informative of prices for your next actual vacataion.
Following Disney blogs
Keeping up the things that go on in the parks are a pivotable part of curing the PDD. This in a sense makes you feel like you are still there. You still get that feeling that you belong there, and you're still a part of it.
Working at the Disney store
This is the best way in my opinion, you are still a cast member you still get a main gate and you get a inside look at all things disney. Working at the disney store was the best thing for me.I was able to bring up my Disney obsession in a environment where I wouldn’t be judged !

If you’re like me you have PDD As well. It’s ok we will get through this together. We just have to ride the wave until our next vacations Thanks for reading this post ! I would love to hear in the comments some things you do to cure your post Disney depression ! See ya real soon.
