Default How do you feel each January?

Is it the unequivocally depressing month that leaves you broke or don’t you mind it so much?

It's my birthday month so that makes myself and everybody around me very excited because I won't shut up about it and because I get to receive presents and host multiple parties throughout the month.

For some reason last January (2020) I felt in one of my best moods ever, settled into my work environment, was constantly going out with them nearly every weekend, I went to Berlin had a great time, even February was alright. It's kind of funny how worse things became afterwards

Fresh start to a fresh year.
Love all the seasons so no problems with January, especially if we get snow.

I like it. There's a sense of renewal and fresh starts and December is so manic that it's nice to have a bit of a breather. Always love the pubs being nice and quiet once the dry Jan brigade and the December part timers exit the stage as well

My mum always found January depressing. However, I’m ready to take the decorations down and embrace a New Year....

It's definitely the worst month but maybe it will be better this year as it's leaving 2020 behind

I don't hate it as much as I used to. Its a pretty bleak month but after the year we've had, I'll be glad to see the start of a new, hopefully better year.

It's got my birthday in it but I generally have subdued birthdays so it's not much of a distraction from the misery of the month
