There's nothing wrong with having anxiety about Christmas. The illusion created by the media that everyone is joyful and not alone creates unrealistic expectations for everyone but especially for those of us with depression and anxiety. Same with New Years. January 2nd is always the day I look forward to because the whole charade is finally over. It's better to be alone than to force ourselves to be in social situations that make us feel even more alone.
