Increase in Depression During the holidays
Does anyone else feel like their depression gets worst through the holidays? What are some things that you feel help during these times?
Personally I play my music a whole lot more during the holidays and read.

My depression has gets really bad during the holidays due to not being able to be around family and also because my grandmother used to do all tehe festive stuff and well now she's dead and it brings back a lot of pent up grief. :(
It's really normal for people to feel lonely and down during holiday. It's not your fault to feel so, and you don't need to act as positive as the society expect. You are who you are. There's aways someone somewhere also sharing depress and down mood. May we all celebrate the holiday with the way we wish to. No one can tell you how should you act, only you can choose for yourself. <3
I get more depressed because in my family, the holidays used to be really good. Since then, however, my family has mostly fallen apart, and now the holidays just remind me of how broken my family is. It makes me so sad remembering what I'm missing.
Depression sucks , Whenever it cames , I understand Holiday suppose to be a happy time !!
Very sad ,, I m with you ,, I discovered that sometimes writing is working more than reading, :)
