2nd one by myself after my family disowned me. Had a couple emo moments but hoping it'll get better as the years go on.

It will, I promise. I’m 22 years out from being disowned. Spend time with your chosen family (friends), make new traditions, and do something nice for yourself.

Sorry, spending the holidays alone is never fun. Hopefully you have a circle of friends. Friends are the family you choose.

Not really. I'm kind of a hermit cuz I work two jobs. Like I have a handful of friends but they all each got their own thing going on. Honestly, it is what it is. I'm sure it'll get better eventually.

I work from home. Also a hermit, not many friends. Keep positive thoughts. I shed those who are excessively negative. I'm on meds, they help.

Find joy in everyday things. Love yourself. That last one was tough to learn.
