I’m at a point of my life that I would rather erase those festivities, they make me fall into a sad mood, especially new years, another reminder that yet another year has ended and that my life still unremarkable dull, lonely, without love and poor.
Holidays are really hard for a lot of people.
All the pressure to be thoughtful and social hits all my anxiety buttons. How much longer until I get to be a hermit again?
Yes. I don’t like being forced to be happy even if I’m not.
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
XMas just makes me feel exhausted and wishing it’d be over. I’ve steadily grown less and less festive over the years. I just can’t get that worked up, every year, over any holiday. And XMas is the worst of it because it’s everywhere all around you. You can’t go anywhere or listen to anything or talk to anyone without it ever being brought up.
I’m tired of the pressure to buy this or buy that. I’m tired of this month long pause with people because of how hyperfocused they are to celebrate a holiday that’s been so tainted by capitalism that any spirit left over has been drained.
All I will say is be sure to take your vitamin d in the cold months
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
I subscribe to the tradition that whatever you are doing during NYE will set the tone for your next year. So, what do you want to attract next year, and how can you take an action towards that this month?
I’ll stay at home, I don’t have money, can’t drive and the day before I’m tired from work, I’ll fall asleep
