Together let's help beat lonliness this xmas ❤🌲
There are so many people who feel lonely at this time of year🙁 there are many reasons, and different types of lonliness around xmas, even bad experiences can make us feel isolated. So let's share some tips on how to make things easier for those struggling. And feel free to share your stories, feelings and memories too ❤❤
Tip 1- plan ahead, maybe like a movie marathon, or making cookies, perhaps a morning walk, or thinking about attending a church service to make you feel connected 🙂
@Tinywhisper11 sooo thoughtful lolabeaniee!💖💖💖

Tip 2) don't watch advertisements and commercials, cause not eveeyones xmas looks as magical as a hallmark Christmas card
Tip 3) plan a trip to join in with some of the local festivities, but make sure it's something you feel safe doing ❤
Tip 4) if you get an invite try not to say no, even if you only go for a little while
@Tinywhisper11 I live in a carehome, it's actually a old folks nursing home, I'm only 24 but that's another story🙂 there's only 12 residents here including me, and they all go spend xmas and new years, with their families ❤ it's really sweet I'm glad they have placed to go for the holidays ❤ but it means other than staff that have to be here I'm left alone. To beat those holiday blues I buy myself presents😁 toys and activities to do on xmas day 😁❤ I also sit in the garden under the willow tree by my sons cross, and talk to him and God, it always helps to have a special place to talk to God and our loved ones we are missing ❤
@Tinywhisper11
Well starting this year you won’t be alone. Anytime you wanna reach out to me for any reason, please don’t hesitate and feel free to do so.
@akunknown aww thanks sweetie ❤❤ I actually enjoy my own company and its only for like a week or so. I'm just happy to be here able to celebrate ❤❤❤ hugs you tightly ❤
Does anyone know of a type of place you could go to for dinmer on Christmas Eve when you have no one to celebrate Christmas Eve with, so you don't have to have dinner alone that night?
@alexagirard98 I'm sorry your alone this xmas🙁 I wonder if there's any local club meet ups, in your area. There's always soup kitchens you can volunteer at, or other maybe other charities you could get involved in, at least that way you won't be alone, and have a chance to help make xmas special for others as well as you ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11
Great suggestions, Tiny. I'd also add volunteering time with shelters/organizations. Being around others can help, even if only for a little while. :)
@CaringSub that's right, charity work around xmas can really help you put things in perspective ❤ and you get to meet great people at the same time ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11 Planning ahead and making easy projects to keep you busy are a good idea
@genericbeing yes that's a great way to beat lonliness and xmas blues😁 plenty of art inspiration wether it's art and craft, photography, or creative writing ❤ plus plenty of festivals, markets, theatre plays. Planning ahead is definitely key for me ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11 Yea if you're busy with projects there's less time to be upset or lonely :)
@genericbeing exactly 😁❤❤
