Am I dealing with Post Travels Blues/Anixiety?

Hey everyone, just got back from 7 months travelling South America. I'm from the U.K, and it was my first big solo trip backpacking. Staying in hostels, moved around 5 countries and I think saw 20 cities/towns.

On top of this I was teaching Maths - I have my own private tutoring business helping students get into college via their GCSEs.

I feel very anxious and sad, randomly crying too, I know it's okay to feel hard emotions.

But I didn't imagine this level of down and flatness. I've got 0 motivation to do anything and nothings stimulating me. I'm not searching for cheap dopamine either.

I wanted to come home because I was getting a bit burnt out and fed up of travelling, but then this current situation isn't ideal either.

I wanted to just share and write it down and see if anyone had anything similar after they had travelled?!
