Christmas Blues.

When i was a kid i loved Christmas, just the feeling of it made me happy. Now that im older I have come to realize its probably the crappiest time of the year. Every Christmas i feel like i have to visit my family even though i cant stand them, I typically just send them a card and leave it at that. Now this year I have to go back and live with them because I cant afford to live here anymore, I have to leave my friends and my new girlfriend :mad:. It doesnt fail though everything holiday something really crappy happens. Any of you have the Christmas Blues?

That sucks. I feel for you though. Ive been depressed now for about a year. It sucks but the holidays just make me sadder. Especially since something bad happens every year!

I only get down to the extent that I'm pretty broke and can't get people nice gifts this year. Oh and I hate all the holiday shoppers and congested traffic. But other than that I try to stay in the holiday spirit.

I feel for you Honey. I think this would be a perfect time for you to start saving up the money to take some college courses though. You've always gotta look on the bright side. I say save your money, become a recording technician or something related to music and then move back to LA.

I can't understand of hating one's family. My family is huge and a bit annoying, but hate them? Never. I despise organized religion and would neer subject my children to it (even though I teach them as much as possible on the subject)...but my family is Catholic and going to Mass is a huge part of the family holidays.

I could protest and pout and avoid the religion, but that just pisses people off, so I go to mass with the family because it makes them happy. And go figure, making others happy is rewarding as hell.

Christmas (or your holiday of choice) should be a time of celebration. It's never going to be perfect and neither is anyone's family, but you can either make the best of it or sit and sulk.

And I know that many of you sad-sacks would rather sit and sulk than have a good time. Of course the holidays will suck for you, you're making them suck. Good luck with that.

Chose to have fun with it (no matter how sappy or lame it seems) and you'll find that holiday cheer.

I hate xmas..I really really hate this time of the year.
For starters..the poor children i see in my neighbourhood plus the ones i used to teach in school..they try so hard..and i MEAN so very fucken hard to be good and do the right thing becos they are led to beleive that if by doing so..santa will reward them with wat ever they wish for..and some dont ask for much.
Many have tried to fulfill these kids wishes but every year the wish list gets too expensive..so they r being fooled not once..BUT 2WICE each year.

Secondly...I had to leave the love of my life to settle shit back here in NZ.
When i was there ..we had made plans ..soooooooooo many plans
as we spent our 1st xmas together.So with broken heart in hand..my silly egyptian sent me home.
The look on his face as he gave me my ticket..the look on his face as he drove me to the airport..not to mention our farewell kiss and the way he held me..so tight but nothing will ever erase the memory of the broken hearted man that stood on the other side of customs as i checked in. :(

Alot of people think if someone doesnt like xmas or hates their parents that the person is just a cry baby or something. Im not gonna sit here and explain my life story about why i cant stand the holidays or my family, i just know i have my reasons and there good ones.

Actually, it's really not your place to judge.
