Yes, it seems that Frodo was so wounded by all his travels that there was no peace left for him to enjoy in Middle Earth, even though evil had been temporaily vanquished. He sailed to the Undying Lands where all his troubles would be over. I'm sure that the pain of his adventures would have grown on him more every year if he hadn't left, and he probably would have eventually died in Middle Earth.
