Christmas Depression & Cheer
Christmas has been difficult for me. It's lonely, it's empty, and I'm not a kid anymore. Christmas has no magic.
My grandmother made Christmas special; she'd leave her tree up for month, cook traditional food, and spend time with us. She passed when I was 15. Worse, my dad passed away at 20, and I haven't felt the Christmas spirit since. It's so lonely with just me and my mom. I've lost so many traditions, and so much family.
Each Christmas since has felt nearly impossible. It doesn't help my depression goes into full whirl in the dark winter.

🎄NOT THIS YEAR BITCHES🎄
🎁HO HO HO MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!☃️
I'm going ALL IN this Christmas. I'm going to make this the best Christmas ever! I've hung lights, put up decorations, made Christmas tree cookies, gone shopping and wrapped presents, watched Christmas movies, and more. It's December tomorrow!
Are you lonely this Christmas? You're not alone. I'm here on the internet, and so are a bunch of friends. If you need a present, a message, maybe just someone to talk to, I'm here. Call me Santa. My DMs are open.
I'm going to be sharing plenty of Christmas music, Christmas games, and cheer.
So tomorrow I'm going to be in full Advent mode; a countdown to Christmas. I'll be using CWs on longer or touchier subjects. Christmas can be hard. This year we're taking Christmas back. It's not about matching the expectations of past Christmases, it's about finding the beauty and love we can create now. I love you. I'm glad you're here, and this Christmas will be special, because we want it to be.
@dnsprincess I whish you a beautiful advent. May these days be happy days.
