Loneliness this Christmas

Saza 11 months ago

Hi,

I was reading a post recently. I realise that a lot of us here experience loneliness. Either sometimes or all the time. We find it hard to recognise where we have connections e.g. here.

I'm wondering if anyone has any coping mechanisms in mind for Christmas loneliness and other struggles?

I think I’m just feeling worried for us all!

I treat myself to some books and some food that's unseasonal and I wouldn't usually buy at this time of year. My best xmas was the one I spent with just me and a cat, researching and writing my dissertation, it was peaceful and relaxed.

The run up to Christmas is already insane since Halloween is over and then it’s full-on “Christmas” in shops - I was in the Trafford Centre the other week and I could not wait to get out of the main centre, yet even the Trafford Palazzo was just as bad and this area is normally quieter on the usually quietest day on Wed from 10am - 11am - same thing happened today in the Arndale Centre Tues 17th Dec from 10 am - 11am crowds were crazy
