Is it normal to cry after vacation?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, crying after a vacation is normal. Coming down from a fun, relaxing break and returning to everyday routines can bring up a surprising wave of sadness.

A vacation can give you a change of pace, more time with people you love, or simply something to look forward to. When it ends, the contrast with regular life can hit hard—sometimes the tears show up before you’ve even unpacked.

Lots of people get the post-vacation blues, and a good cry doesn’t mean you’re ungrateful or that anything is wrong. Give yourself a little time to settle back in, and try putting something enjoyable on the calendar so the next good thing doesn’t feel impossibly far away.
