I think she is right, it's pointless to think how others live and if they have better lives. One never knows.
Personally my way of coping is being very busy. Last year I was very lonely around holidays and I felt I was falling into depression. I decided to volunteer in a homeless shelter all through holidays. It was like the best holiday celebration for me. I felt rewarded and I was busy. There was no time to be lonely and it put my life into perspective. Otherwise I'd be home sad the whole time

i think this is it to be honest, keeping busy and setting goals to achieve.
i've been doing this for 5 years but it's still difficult!
peaks and troughs i guess, there's always months when the loneliness just becomes torture and other months when it's bearable.
