I bumped into a woman that retired when I retired. She was working for 37 years and yes she also was depressed when she retired and would like to get to her old workplace part time. I think she had been trying. I felt the same way. This is more common then we know. She said in January she might start looking for something else if she cannot get back part time.
She is single and just has her two dogs. Then I have friends that retired, two younger than me and were very happy. The two younger than me retired to help with grandkids. That was their purpose.
I guess everyone needs a purpose. At least I have my part time job now. Going to a holiday dinner with some staff tomorrow night. I will find my niche.
