Do you get depressed at Christmas?
 

It seems Christmas brings out a lot of emotion in people. The joke "we'll be arguing by 12" usually rings true. It's a shame people buy into it all really and let the day get them down, it's stupid that society makes a day where everyone is meant to be happy and your troubles go away. I'm glad I don't buy into it or anything, it's just another day.

For once I actually prefer the religion take on Christmas. The Nativity is a nice heart warming story (apart from the first ). Not all this Happy clappy in your face Xmas bollocks. So remember, it's just a day that was invented, don't let it get you down :nono:

I have No Xmas

And I have good stocks of Levi Roots ready meals.

Winter depresses me a bit,Christmas is what makes everything better.

my family always end up arguing on christmas day and im just like http://www.smiley-faces.org/smiley-f...ce-popcorn.gif

For Children yes.


But Not Adults

Christmas shopping depresses me and Christmas can get a bit tiresome at times. I dont think I'll celebrate it much when I'm older

Well I'm 20 and I love Christmas :p And my parents are 50 and they do too. You can't generalise ALL adults.

Older People , of course are in there Zone.



It is just Another Day.


There Is No God.

No one said there is any God....

Yes to many Women Shoppers in the Way.


Its is Crazy.



I managed to get some Levi Roots meals this morning
that is Bliss

it's been a weird one for me this year, because all my mates got me loads of gifts on my birthdays (i have two...long story) i felt obliged to make them all christmas stockings and i enjoyed it. then i saw these little 3ft xmas trees in asda for 75 p and got one and put lights on it and it looks really pretty, but it brought back memories of when i was little and mum was alive and i got really upset and cried a lot, but i'm sort of ok now. i've been thinking of other people more than normal, my mum was like that. and i'm cooking and taking in a stray friend of a friend, so it's ok . feel a bit 'oh god another year ahead though'

I Know.


I just love my Stamp on it.

Yeah, barging their way around all the shops :bored:

"Leading Consumer Foods company, Kerry Foods, has launched a range of Levi Roots chilled Caribbean meals"

This, exactly.

I detest winter but the excitement and buid up to xmas makes it bearable. I dread January and February though, now that's what I call depressing! The longest, darkest, coldest dreariest months. I almost feel like crying with relief when I see the first signs of Spring!!

So no, xmas does not depress me, I love it in fact, but for some reason I always get emotional at New Year.. don't know why

:hug:

Your post just made me sad :(

You sound like a nice person

:amazed:

Looks really nice actually, I might have to get myself one!

:hug:

Christmas is supposed to be a 'happy' time, so when its not, yeah, it does get you down.

At the same time to pretend its just 'another day' is very negative and you should try and enjoy yourself a bit more. Its 1 day out of 365 days every year, lighten up!

yup.

Christmas is the one time the family never argue :laugh:

If this one goes bad, I don't care, I've got the Russian coming on in January :hugesmile: 2 Christmas for me bitches :laugh:

Some people can't help, but be depressed at Christmas.

For a lot of people Christmas won't be happy for many of reasons.

Yeah, acting like an idiot.

Stop pushing your atheist views down peoples throats.

People who are depressed on Christmas need their head checked. Its the best time of the year. And i do buy into it. Why not? Better being happy and getting carried away than being depressed and all sad.

Fully agree. I doubt many people think like that. It seems like a very sad mentality.

"Better being happy"


I am Very Happy.

No Xmas.

No Coca Cola Xmas Ad Con.


No God - There is Not one.


It is Just Another Day.


Bliss.

Yes Ganster Remy.



But Many Young People Do Not Need Xmas,
They just need a Good Shag


Even Xmas Cards is mostly done only by Old Folks

:joker: Idiot.

I'll get the good shag too, don't worry :hugesmile:

Who does Xmas cards anyway? That is so old. When I was living in England a few years ago, the whole English family I was staying with made me cards and I was like "WTF are you serious?". They actually expected some cards from my family too and I told them we don't do that in France, neither in Russia or Italy.

I can see where you're coming from about Christmas, I've got the feeling people forget what it is all about sometimes so it makes it quite pointless. But then again, to some people, it's a nice way of seeing the whole family and being in peace for once. You don't enjoy it as much as you used to when you're grown up anyway: you just want to eat and drink. :hugesmile:

No no need to call another Member that
Do you want a Ban?

Who does Xmas cards anyway?


The British Old Folks do.

Meh. You talk rubbish. Stick to the topic which is depression in Christmas. Not god.

But I still do Not Call Other Menbers Bad Names

You Do.


Guilty As Charged

So what.

I got a tad bit upset over the snow and the thought of all my family not being able to get together for Xmas day! But it's started to melt now, and I'm home for Xmas so it's looking better!

Thats why I can say you need to Re-Read The Rules

This discussion depresses me.
Can't believe there are people who get depressed by chrismtas. I'm 18 and I love it, my 15 year old sister loves it, my 48 yea old dad loves it and my 80 year old grandad loves it.
It's not "cool" to dislike christmas. It's just quite sad. :/
Everyone can be together and not argue.

If You Need It it you can have It.


I am Happy with No Xmas.


It is The New Way.

Nah, "get depressed at Christmas" is just another attention seeking thing.

Why do people always use the "it's not cool" line; it's not cool to smoke, it's not cool to do drugs etc. now it's not cool to dislike Christmas? Nobody said it was cool! Why on Earth would anyone think they were being cool by disliking Christmas, they wouldnt and noone has said so.
