#this holiday

Hey guys, still fighting my injuries here (with an appointment on Jan 14th finally with orthopaedics!) - and also a reminder that

I LOVE YOU

I know the oncoming holiday season is a time of great stress for a lot of people, for a wide variety of reasons:

Your family are buttfink snotlickers and abandoned you for being you (fuck them, you’re perfect)

You’re alone and depressed and it sucks and even your cat would rather lick his own genitals infront of you than come and snuggle on your lap, I’ve seen some things...

You have to face a family gathering where honestly you’d rather hang from the rafters and pretend you’re anywhere else but there

You’re an atheist/pagan/non christian and having to explain it to people over and over that you have your own reasons for celebrating/not celebrating it, is making you want you start cracking out the knives...

You’re the one stuck making the dinner, we salute you

Everything seems to be going wrong, and it’s getting to you

You’ve caught the Local Lurgi that’s going about and you want to just drown in cough medicine and cool towels for your head.

You’re in a pickle of pain like me, and the holidays everything shuts down like your emotions when confronted with anything like an argument, so it’s difficult getting needed meds

etc etc

Whatever is happening, I want you to hang in there. You’re loved. You have friends. You have a family you have the power to choose. And it’ll be over soon (I recommend a stiff drink, going to bed and sleeping it off - only if you’re able to without crossing meds etc).

And if you’re having a difficult time this season: CLICK HERE <--- talking to someone is often a good step and many of these numbers are free. Often times just talking to a stranger is helpful, there’s no shame in it, and I myself have used the Samaritans (uk) often.
