I know how you feel, I'm sort of feeling the same way. The Christmas decorations were bought down last week and they're still sitting in the dining room in their boxes. Although I don't normally put them up until this weekend.
I absolutely love Christmas and I'm usually really excited about putting the decorations up, but I'm just not feeling it this year. But this thread has just convinced me to go and put my big girl pants on and get on with it. I've got to try and make it as normal as possible, even if it is going to be totally different this year. Sending you hugs.

Hi everyone sorry I haven’t answered any of the posts but I’ve been in work since 6.30 this morning and only got home about 30 mins ago.
I think work is part of the problem we’ve been flat out since February when everyone started panic buying and as a result most weeks I’m working almost double my contracted hours( I have to do it as it’s in my contract ) and I’m exhausted when I get home I’m so tired I don’t want to do anything. I’m off on Sunday so I’ll have to make a start on the presents then. I’m so sorry that so many are feeling the same way and I know some of you have lost family members which is bad enough in normal circumstances but must be even worse in the current climate. I had a lovely FaceTime call from my almost 3 year old granddaughter last night so that cheered me up a bit and I did some ElfYourself videos of my grandchildren which they loved. Thank you to all of you who have made some suggestions to lift my mood I’ll definitely give them a go.

You are welcome. My daughter and I feel the same about her husbands mum ha ha.
She is the tiniest skinniest stingiest most miserable person imaginable. Luckily this year she isn’t coming! I feel your pain.

I lost my mum on 12th December that was long times ago and I do feel sad on Xmas period.
But I get on with it and try my best for my family. I think you have anti depression and I have been through last July and I went to doctor because I cannot be bother to anything and feel sad. Maybe I am wrong but it sound to me. I got tablets but it do help me now I feel a bit better. I hate tablets and I don't believe it but actually it work for me.

It’s hard losing a parent anytime but the anniversary around the festive season can make it feel worse.
I lost my mum on New Year’s Eve 1999 so I find New Year quite a difficult time. I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better now though

We have all had a ≈≈≈≈ year the crappiest year ever for many, I have not had any pay since February and my Mum is still in hospital. well nursing home (since Dec 2019). We cant do what we usually do and Xmas eve is my favourite night of the year. I can't usually be bothered with decorations anyway but DD and DW love it so started putting them up yesterday.
However crappy you year has been, however low you feel not "doing" Christmas will only make things worse. |

Absolutely agree Sew. Not doing Christmas would be so much worse than a different Christmas for many.
