I really struggle this time of year. I have suffered from SAD for about 10 years now, and December through March is the worst of it. It makes celebrating the Holidays very difficult, but I try to swallow my depression and get through the dreary days. I know most of you LOVE this time of year, and I am sometimes so jealous. My mind is a ticking time bomb with anxiety, missing my mom and trying to keep people happy! For those that deal with SAD (or depression in general) and find the Holidays taxing...you are not alone. Many thoughts to you, and if you are okay in sharing your story, go ahead. Merry week before Christmas. We will get through this!!
