I can chime in here also. I am so sorry to hear about your fall and now injury. Yesterday was my one hear anniversary of fracturing my shoulder from a cycling fall. For me I was more upset that 4 weeks from then my husband and I were signed up for our first organized ride that we were able to ride together. Because of different days off during the week we do not get to ride together much at all.

Anyway, I was more down in the dumps because of that and thought there was a glimmer of hope that I would be able to do the ride. I think anyone that gets an injury that keeps them off the bike or their favorite exercise will feel down or depressed for different reasons.

For me it helped to do everything I could to keep myself in shape and my legs moving. Since I had to leave my shoulder in one position, my husband brought in an exercise bike for me and then I eventually was able to progress to my mtn bike on the trainer then eventually my road bike on the trainer. Of course I took walks.

I did like being home and did not miss the commute to work so that did make me happy. I was out of work for 10 weeks.

Sorry....to answer your question, yes, you are very normal.
