It makes me feel lower. Because I’m very big on family and loved ones. I love the lights and the music that makes me feel happy but not having anyone to get together with or have people my children can hang out with like Aunts and Uncles and everyone etc... it’s rough. You?

Same here Christmas time is for family's I think I get lower as I can't wait for it to finish so I can get back to what I call my normality if you know what I mean

I know exactly what you mean.

usually I'm so happy at this time of year, but now I don't know what'S wrong with me. I feel like I'm empty and nothing-not even the holidays- matters. How does it make you feel?

Hi Hidden

I lost my mum to cancer a long time ago and I never enjoyed or celebrated it after that this year though I'm trying to make a effort..

What's made you feel empty my friend...

So sorry your feeling that way has something happened thats made you feel that way

I'm sad to hear that you lost your mom. Mom's are important.

I don't know what has been happening to me lately, I don't know why I'm feeling so empty or so sick with myself. I have friends, family, I have great marks at school, my worst mark was 88 but I still manage to not feel well about myself. I don,t know why. Yesterday I helped my parents put the tree up and usually I would be jumping up and down about it but not this time. It was normal for me, I miss that pang of excitement that follows putting up the tree as an announcement of the beginning of the holidays.

But cheers! We'll celebrate together here!

Yes we will👌 I also think that the older we get the less excited we get..88 mark is great the taking part is even bigger..we are not alone on here we at least have that

Yes, we are together on this. And even if your Mom is no longer with us, we can still celebrate. Her memory still remain. Peace to you.

Sending kind thoughts

Have you ever had therapy or councilling if you don't mind me asking only maybe there is a root problem that's making you feel the way you do and how it makes you act I have rejection issues massively too so believe me when I say your not alone in the way you feel
