Anyone else struggle with the holidays? [View all]
This isn't my favorite time of year to begin with. My mom passed away in the beginning of December (many years ago). But now that I'm not drinking, it's even more depressing. "F*ck Christmas" seems to be my new mantra. The forced merriment and endless stream of parties really get to me after a while. January 2nd can't come soon enough.
