Ah, the posts are not making you sick. You choose to be sickened by the posts. There is a perspective that you can take about “this time of year” that will make you feel exactly the opposite, but that just may not suit your agenda.

If you post on a public forum you open yourself up to constructive criticism. I personally like the joyous posts.

I did not tell you how you feel, I simply pointed out that you choose to feel this way.

That's the whole point, do you choose to feel sad when someone die do you choose to feel anxious you can't just choose when it comes to feelings. Respect how i feel about something when i obviously have my reasons.

I respect your feelings, nothing that I said indicates otherwise. I simply pointed out the flaws in your thought process and offered constructive comments.

Your post is important to all of us. Our thought process is where many of our problems lie.

Some people don't like the holidays for different reasons, do what's best for you
