I am feeling a little sad this holiday season because......
I'm alone and as much as I do enjoy my alone time it hurts this time of year. Struggling financially and living in a home that is literally falling apart. I know I am lucky because there are a lot of people who have it worse than I do but it still hurts. Best gift I got this year was receiving assistance because I couldn't pay a hospital bill.
I feel down and not joyful as Im suppose to.
I'm sad because I have SAD
I am sad coz i am not able to do things i decide to do the other day and it makes me doubt myself
I miss my best friend who died earlier this month and I feel very sad for his family who is missing him today as well.
My panic attacks have left me so weak i can hardly leave the room. So no family this year.
Home alone
@Alyssa84 that sucks. But we're here with you.
Today didnt go as I planned. We are a typical middle class couple with 4 children at home and we planned and saved for this Christmas. My sons skateboard came in the wrong size and besides a couple little gifts, that was it. The company website defaulted to small. My other son, who is on the spectrum, cried when he opened a couple of the gifts because he was unhappy. My daughter feels like she didn't get enough...she got 6 gifts. On top of everything we were woken up by our 13 yo who is also on the spectrum. He was being naughty and trying to unwrap everything because werent moving quick enough. He knows better. Hes smart but he has self control issues and adhd.
Merry Christmas
I have to spend it alone....I don't have a wife or children...unfortunatly
I'm away from my whole family and I don't think my grandpa has many christmas left.. might be the last one for him and I'm not there
