All the pressure to be thoughtful and social hits all my anxiety buttons. How much longer until I get to be a hermit again?
Xmas is in 9 days, so it's almost over!
All I will say is be sure to take your vitamin d in the cold months
Yes. I don't like being forced to be happy even if I'm not.
I think the holiday season is really overblown, with so much artificial cheer that it's unsurprising that people get sad at this time. You can opt out of the festivities. You don't have to do a tree, attend parties, or participate in gifts. People might not like it but you don't have to go along to get along.
when you have a nice long break and a list of household chores you’ve been meaning to get to and New Years Day arrives and you realize you haven’t touched a single thing on the list
Yeah that, but also, try getting dumped on Christmas. It used to be my favorite holiday.
Halloween's cooler anyways, I guess, just more of a fan of Christmas aesthetics. Oh well.
I've never held dumped since I've never been in a relationship.
Its all i can do to get through each day in December, I'm one wrong step away from falling apart at all times. But spring will be here soon and that keeps me hopeful
