empty nest syndrome

ok, so i was delighted today to discover that my scattered feelings of loss, emptiness, and sadness have a bonafide syndrome attached......i was also amused that the psychology today piece on empty nest syndrome was sponsored by the makers of wellbutrin.......ha!.....as if mere medication could snap me out of my melancholy.....i have read numerous articles today about the cause and the cure....from sources ranging from the latterday saints.......to an online support group that boasted testimonials to match any and all symptoms.....i didn't read that site long enough to find out if they were selling anything....there are books on the subject....should i desire a bound copy of whatever wisdom can be gleaned on the subject.....and i must say...after all of my research that my state of mind has more to do with geography than anything......u.k. was just down the road......princeton is 12 hours away.......and further when one factors in the likelhood that the opportunities branch out to the ends of the earth.....i suppose i see this leaving as the end.......which my workmates have told me is a dream.....at least 3 women i work with are dealing with adult children who have moved back home with no exit strategy.....oy.......sobering information.......especially when said children bring their children with them......i may be living out the bestcase scenario.........so i should be happy and proud......and relieved.....rather than despondant.......it will be ok.......i happened upon a nice sentiment when browsing this afternoon between clients......a lj person whose on-line descriptive was...i don't need therapy..i haver an online journal.......amen..at least for now.....
