The holidays are done. Yay!!!!!!!!!

Done for another year.
What lies ahead for us all?
I need to work on self-love. I've been ignoring it lately.

Share with me

not quite my friend ... new years is a good time to work on that self love issue ... new beginings , a fresh start ... I wish you all the best ....

Keep that spirit up!

I'm glad someone else is as happy as I am that it's over!

Me too! And I'm extra-happy because usually it feels like the holidays go on even longer because my birthday is in 3 weeks and since my parents had 3 kids with their birthdays all in 4 weeks from Christmas it always felt like the time of celebration of things didn't end until nearly February. Then my brother wasn't involved much so that meant I was done at my birthday. But this year I should be IP for my birthday so I've already announced it's delayed (this is the one year I want some kind of celebration b/c I'm turning 40 and somehow that feels like an accomplishment) and we will celebrate in March or so.

New Year's is a non-event here, so done, done and done!

I feel worse today than I did yesterday. At least yesterday I had my family to distract me. But I'm glad the stress is over.

I am still in the Christmas spirit and plan to continue to enjoy the holiday season and New Years next week.

I am thrilled I made it through the holidays. I was psych hospitalized shortly before.
New diagnosis, new meds, new year.
I really want to focus on making myself and my health top priority. i tend to back burner myself for far too long. My big new year's resolution is to get back to exercising. I have gained over 120 pounds on psych meds over 17 years. I used to be a super skinny ballet dancer. Sigh.
But every journey begins with a single step. I'll never be that tiny teenager again, but i shouldn't let that stop me from getting healthier. I really need to get healthier in all ways.

Yes, another Christmas is behind us, and I'm glad to see so many celebrating this!

I'm soooooo glad it's over. I think this year I may also need to work on self-love/self-esteem. I know I'm my own worst enemy. It's incredibly difficult to be nice to oneself in the throws of depression.

I'm another one that is glad that it's over. Will be glad to start a a new year.

Me too. Sort of a fresh start. Maybe time for change?

I hear you on that one

Don't forget, kids...only 363 Days before Christmas! Bwahahah!

Bah humbug

I enjoyed getting together with my family; but, I, too, am really glad it is over.

I feel that ol' deadness creeping in though. I hope my meds can keep me level.

I am also feeling restless. My life is sad, lonely, and boring. Trying to think of positive steps to increase my quality of life.....without going hypo with it........

Its a lot of pressure, isn't it? Or maybe a lot of it isn't really there...we just put it on ourselves.

I only had one dinner to go to throughout the entire season on Xmas day with some lifelong friends...and I still would have rather just stayed home. I don't do a hell of a lot of things anyway these days, but I want to be able to pick and choose what I do and when I do it myself. Waa waa waa...I'm so abused! Lol.

Looking forward to the new year and planning positive changes. Hugs to all

i'm so glad the holidays are done also.

i don't mean to be a screwdge... honestly i don't. but i hate them... no gifts, no people to be close to, nothing like that.. i'm only my own ordering my own christmas gifts.

rather sad really

and i don't do well with all the christmas food- eat far too much, which is not good seeing as i'm all ready a binge eater

now for the depressing new year *sighs*

I am glad.And as I posted , I am worried about going out on new year's eve, I am afraid I will party too much and get manic.

I have family around me and I feel the same way ... gift giving and receiving has always been torture to me ... I feel so far away even in the same room ... eating masks the pain ... all I ask for the new year is to be less painful than last year ... a new start I doubt ... to not lose ground is the best I hope for ....
