Hello Clive, sounds like you're hanging with the wrong crowd, seems like there's plenty of CCR divers in your neck of the woods here on RBW. Nothing like spending time with a bunch of scowling naysayers to make one feel out of wack.
That being said, you may also be dealing with a bad combination of coming a great distance very fast-non tech OC to CCR-and a case of monetary post partum depression. Don't worry, a few great dives will set you straight. I sat out diving for a year saving up for my CCR and training. I sometimes forget what I'm doing working OT and spending so much time planning my overseas trips. Then I hit the water and all the good stuff comes back in an istant.
Hang in there, -Andy
