(May desease/la maladie du mois de mai)
One of my colleague told me that this is like what foreigners feel around xmas time when they aren't with their family. But I think there is more to it and that foreigners who have lived in Japan for a while are likely to suffer from it in May too!
In Japan, a lot of things seem to change in April: new fiscal year, school year, staff, etc. So when things don't run so smoothly and you let stress build up for weeks, in May, you end up suffering from some form of 'adjustement disorder'. I guess it didn't hit me until the end of May..and I am still finding it tough to get motivated for work. Rokugatsu byou or lazyness on my part?
