Christmas isn’t my favourite time of year

I'm not that much of a fan of Christmas. To me, it's fake. And pressure to be cheerful, social, and “festive,” and I often find myself feeling the opposite. And so I’m also trying to look after my mental health a bit more this year, but I’m curious how others cope during this season.

 

What things do you do at this time of year to take care of your mental health?
Anything that helps you stay grounded, calm, or just get through the holidays?

 

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share.

Merry Christmas everyone.

For those of us alone, or for those wishing they were at times later, for those just having a nice day, for all of us out there.
