Anybody else have the "Holiday Blues"?

[Miscue]

I wasn't doing so hot, then my best friend came back from med school and we've been hanging out... it's been a good distraction. Been going to the gym everyday, and that helps. Just doing what I can to keep motivated and productive - if I don't, everything shuts down. The holidays have upsides and downs, trying to focus on the good even if it means self-delusion. But if I think about it, it's not so different than any other day... I guess just certain thoughts and memories are more prone to surface.

Yeah, I know what y'all mean. I have to stop and remember everythings ok. My wife and kids are healthy and that's all that really matters. We all find our way.

My daughter (She's almost 15) cracks me up alot. Lately, she's taken to quoting a line from Finding Nemo.

"Just keep swimming, Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming"
That's basically what we're doing otherwise things just bog you down.

Hang in there everyone! Spring will come!

eh... i haven't really had ne holiday blues b4, they always seem to b good for me, but i feel bad for u man, all of us here at ao r here to lift u up when u r blue, i think it was very manly of u to open up to us, it is a hard thing to do, but if it is really a problem talk to a doc, they have pills that help u with things like that. and maybe do like cphil, find suttin to d, suttin that u enjoy doing and it will keep ur mind off everything, like build a gun up from scratch or suttin

i always get the holiday blues after there over. I miss christmas so much. It's not about the presents, exactly, they're apart of it all, but I love the freshness in the air. The holiday music, the christmas specials. I love it all, but after it i get kind of sad.

I usually have the "Blues" during summer. I feel like going back to school to see my friends (I live now where near them).

It's a sure-fire way. Do it for yourself.

Agreed.

Check this:

I get off work from work for six days during the christmas "break". A couple of my friends are going to be back in my old home town, San Angelo (5 hrs away from here) for the entire christmas break. When I get my shedule, I find I get the 19-24th off and have to return to work for christmas morning (I help throw papers... 4am...) At first, no big deal... Just another day.
Well, my family decides to go back home for christmas, too (I live with my family in College station, TX). The only thing is, theyll be there until my little brothers have to back at school in Jan. So, no family for christmas... Also, since College Station is a College town (really? go figure... ), all my buddies are out of town visiting their families for the christmas holidays until January. So, no family, no old friends, (not even any new friends...) for christmas. Kinda puts in perspective the limited value of all these material gifts for you...

I have to work New Years Day at 4am, too, so I guess I'm going to bed early... :o
