I am feeling a little sad this holiday season because......
my dad is working all the time... he only stayed 24th and 25th ... tomorrow he'll work...
I feel like I lack any meaningful relationships, specially with friends.
I feel extremely alone and sad.
My girlfriend broke up with me 3 days ago and there's no way we can get back together.
I am feeling a little sad this holiday season because I miss my grandma a lot... (she passed away 2 years ago)
I would love to have her here to hug her and tell her how much I love her... 😢
i camr to uk with my bf but he decided to break up with me here
i am alone here without my family and friends
-my family isnt as close as we used to be
-I dont feel happy like everyone else during the holidays
-I feel like I stand out because of this
-my family gets tired of my depression

I can relate to the last part especially... sometimes the people around us can't cope with it any better than we do...
My therapist had sessions with my mom as well to help her understand what I'm going through and make it bearable for her. When she got the call from the hospital that I had to be administered due to severe depression she shattered... she just didn't know how to push through... the first time she came to visit me in the ward she didn't even talk to me. Just came in, left some items and then turned around and left. It took her 2 days and several talks with my therapist to be able to even see me again...
Maybe your therapist can help Too... help them understand and be there for you.
@ohbribri I also live in fear of alienating my family and friends with my depression and anxiety. Im very lucky to have many loved ones who insist on my value even when I have trouble seeing it myself, but the fear remains. I try to remember that for most people like us, self-isolation in response to the trepidations, which are just another irritating part of our condition, are a much more immediate yet resolvable problem than being abandoned by the people who love us.
-My parents are fighting
-I feel alone and panic a lot those days
-I do not get enough sleep
...I want my mom to stop shouting...I want to sleep and escape

I'm sorry to hear that its been so difficult...
buy earplugs or listen to a song before going to sleep, it can help maybe...
Remember, you _do_ have more control over your life than you think. It helps to seek help and support
My only beacon of slight happiness is only going to stay in my town for another few hours and she is moving to Texas soon....a long plane ride away. Ill miss her so bad...
Im feeling sad because I dont know if i love my boyfriend. Im scared to leave him its really hard for me . I dont want to leave him he love me so much and hes so kind and caring I just wished I can connect with my boyfriend like we were when I started dating him

Ive been finished with my Bachelors for a year and despite several promising interviews, I still havent found a job that allows me to live independently. Ive been serving full-time since then and I hate it—its a stressful, meaningless gig where you can give 110% and still not make any money if your customers decide its not their job to tip you, to say nothing of the fucking creeps (clients and management) who harass me on the job. I dont want to go back to work tomorrow.
My family are wonderful and theyve always assured me that this is just a rough patch, but I feel so disappointed in myself that I dont feel like I have any right to celebrate this or any holiday. I feel like I worked hard and did everything right, and Im just this sad, overeducated loser. And political trends here in the US indicate that things are only going to get harder for me and everyone else who isnt fabulously wealthy in the coming years.
@selfconfidentTortoise3409
so sorry its been so hard :( please be strong
for me it helps me to read what others write because it shows me that many other people also have struggles... it just gives a sense that i'm not alone in my struggle.
i hope you find solutions in your life
Peace&Light
