My depression has been getting worse lately and I was starting to get concerned, than I realized that the holidays are coming up. This happens every year. Only this time I realized it and instead of wondering why I am so depressed. I think I need to have a different approach to this problem. Do any of you have any tricks or advice on how to get through this time of year?
Call a upon God every day, Ask him to give you opportunities to help people around out in the community, smile on your face, help out an elderly person.
Make a list of things to do around your house/apt. The busier you stay, the better it will be. Try to go to a funny movie. It is difficult, but Christmas is only 24 hours. December is a tough month… read more

I just had a birthday last month and didn’t have my brother or sister with me so that brought me down. It is getting close to Thanksgiving and it will be just hubby, me our children and grandchildren and great grand and that brings me down. Ok so then time to put up tree that used to take me part of a day but now because of health it takes parts of many days and that brings me down. Then of course Christmas Eve and Christmas with immediate family no longer any of extended loved ones so guess… read more
They can if you allow yourself to get too involved with the preparations and planning. Don't bite off more than you can chew. Find ways to enjoy the holidays. What is it you like most about holidays?
I’ve read some articles about people who are little more depressed during the holidays than any other time in the year. Me personally I do feel depression hits me little harder specifically on holidays like thanksgiving and Christmas but just wondering if people feel the same way ?

I don't have holidays anymore I ignore them does anyone else?
Yes I do ignore completely at this point in my life because all my family are deceased so I just don't see the point
I have severe depression and anxiety that I struggle with every single day and gets worse during the holidays. As a single stay at home mom to three kids sometimes holidays can get extremely overwhelming especially when you can get things they want due to financial reasons. Also my ext husband the kids dad likes to out do me with gifts and stuff. Any suggestions would be great thanks.
I think that I am more manic over the holidays then when they are over I am depressed.
As far as your ex trying to out do you, my mom was in your shoes. My Dad didn’t do it out of spite though, he… read more
