How are you? Christmas mood here?

I don’t know what to ask.
Three months passed while I didn’t visited this forum… so I am quite not sure where to start and what should I ask to begin with. :frowning: :smiley:
IDK. So, how’s your life?
What happened here in the forum during these three months?
IS CHRISTMAS MOOD ON? :sunglasses: :christmas_tree:

In-law issues. I have made plans with my family that have been blown up three years in a row now. The last two weren’t really the MIL’s fault even though she was central to the issue. This year it’s 100% her fault and I’m done. I’m sick of this season stressing me out to the point of being suicidal and having to pound my Ativan supply.

2025 will be better. Making positive changes.

I like to relax with my wife and daughter over Christmas, but it just gets complicated every year.

TBH, Christmas are often very stressful period for me.
This year grandparents didn’t even came, because they don’t see any point. Sweet.

In fact if all the family gather we always start to argue… all of us. It’s different from your situation, but somehow I feel I can relate.

I feel you.
And I also understand the Grinch!!! @POET

Ahh dang sorry to hear that bro really… I have a small family so I never really understood people when they said they had holiday family problems… Idk… I guess when you get enough people together and booze etc drama is inevitable but… Hope it goes well this year.

I also love my family💙
I am thankful for my mom n dad, if not them, I probably wouldn’t be who I am.

But as you mentioned booze, and in my case also generational differences. In thinking, mostly. :confused: Sometimes it’s hard to say my opinion aloud, because I know they won’t like, or even accept it.
And if I stay silent then I don’t like it!

Im looking forward to time with family. My stepmom is notorious for being mean to me, but I’ve learned it’s a reflection on her and not on me.

We are spending a day together in a couple days. I’m still trying to decide what to bring.

My kids are with me today, but one is sick :frowning: Hopefully she recovers quickly.

I’m a bit like uncle Ebenezer Scrooge in a “Christmas Carol” before he meets the ghost of christmas :smirk:

It’s not my time of year, I am yearning for some sunshine. Here in Denmark the sun is only visible eight hours a day.

But anyway - merry christmas to all of you
