I find Christmas hard and lonely.
I find it stressful and draining. how are you meant to relax when it comes around when you run around everywhere visiting everyone. lol
Yep I find it hard to cope during Xmas between running around to visit everyone and dodge the family issues all I wish to do Xmas day is spend it at home with my kids
Every year since I was about 13. My history of abuse has a lot to do with it but I also have no relationship with my family or my husbands. So the last few years Xmas has been me wishing I could stay in bed and sleep through it. I absolutely hate Christmas. This year I am spending the day at home with my hubby and children. Xmas night I have an amazing girlfriend coming over who other than my SIL (who was my best friend for 20+ years until a fall out over a year ago) completely understands me. Even though I can't ask for a better way to spend it I still feel down and out about it. No tree no carols and no extended family! Bring on Boxing Day I say!!!
Yep I'm exactly the same! I get really stressed all of December with everything to do with it and just hang out for it to be over. Feels crap when everyone else seems excited about it. Don't know why but have hated it since I was a teenager. Good to know I'm not the only one
I'm not feeling it this year. I thought I had myself in the right head space, but then over the past few days have spiralled again. I really need to perk up for the sake of my boys, I'm just finding it hard. What is worse is I can't seem to pin point a reason. Just feeling blue.
