I’m at a point of my life that I would rather erase those festivities, they make me fall into a sad mood, especially new years, another reminder that yet another year has ended and that my life still unremarkable dull, lonely, without love and poor.

    All the pressure to be thoughtful and social hits all my anxiety buttons. How much longer until I get to be a hermit again?

    when you have a nice long break and a list of household chores you’ve been meaning to get to and New Years Day arrives and you realize you haven’t touched a single thing on the list

    I think the holiday season is really overblown, with so much artificial cheer that it’s unsurprising that people get sad at this time. You can opt out of the festivities. You don’t have to do a tree, attend parties, or participate in gifts. People might not like it but you don’t have to go along to get along.

    Yeah that, but also, try getting dumped on Christmas. It used to be my favorite holiday.

    Halloween’s cooler anyways, I guess, just more of a fan of Christmas aesthetics. Oh well.

    I subscribe to the tradition that whatever you are doing during NYE will set the tone for your next year. So, what do you want to attract next year, and how can you take an action towards that this month?

      I’ll stay at home, I don’t have money, can’t drive and the day before I’m tired from work, I’ll fall asleep
