This time of year is meant to be filled with joy and family get-togethers, but not everyone has family or anything to be happy about. So are you ok?

Not really, but since I'm not going to find any solutions here and people have it worse, I'll leave it at that.

Sometimes it can help to talk about it even if solutions aren't found! But that's your choice either way obviously 💕

It does not matter if others have it worse. It makes no difference if you are drowning in 2m or 10m of water, you are still drowning. don't belittle your struggle! Talking about problems gives us the ability to think things through and catalyses change. i wish you the very best!
