I'm so over Christmas already. I don't want it and I wish I could refuse to be a part of it but that isn't even an option. At least in a week it will be over. My mood has been on a steady decline for the last week which is a bit concerning. Trying to hold on to the hope that it will improve once Christmas is done.

I'm trying to grin and bear it, I work in retail so having to plaster that fake smile on my face a lot. It's so much effort. Stupid me even picked up an extra shift this week. I just want to hide from the world.

I think I just needed a bit of a rant...

I'm sorry you're feeling that way. I have always enjoyed Christmas, but this year feels different. I'm just hoping I can get through it without fighting with my family and without them questioning my SIs and my hospitalization.

I hope with the passing of Christmas your mood will level out. It is hard working in retail because you have to pretend to be happy regardless of how you really feel. My heart goes out to you.

retail at Christmas is tough. You must be a strong person
