One thing I always find really challenging during the holidays is...[share with the community]

Keeping myself in shape. I overeat and don't exercise.

I don't really fit in with my moms side of the family (whom I am related to by marriage) so that used to bother me quite a bit growing up going to functions and noticing more and more how no one really wanted to talk to my immediate family and we we're only invited out of politeness. now that I'm older and in a relationship I really love going to my SO's family gatherings they make me feel like family. so my biggest worry around the holidays are most definitely money.

Being productive

Hey everybody! Happy cupsgiving!!! one thing i find really hard is keeping things in perspective because there are people in m

trying to keep the peace for everyone.

I don't like seeing my biological family and I'm 90% sure they don't like seeing me. I hate it when guests come to my house or I have to go to their house I usually have to hide because I don't want to see their faces and know how much they hate me

the thing I find hardest during the holidays is being happy. I hate the holidays simply because I have to put on a brave face. last year, I escaped it because I was ill, so no one really expected me to be cheery. with the kids understanding more about the holidays, it feels quite selfish of me not to be happy and cheery and to celebrate it with them. christmas is a big problem for me, because my issues started to come about around that time. I hate christmas because of that. I just can't deal with it.

I find it hard to relax and eat the foods that I love

Getting along with difficult family members. 😒

I find myself getting anxious around the holidays and slightly depressed. I'm single so it just reminds me of not having someone romantic way to spend the holidays with. However I am thankful for my family and friends to enjoy spending time with.
