Holidays, gatherings, and depression, oh my! For some, it is only a reminder of the loneliness and sadness they endure while coping with what they are missing or can’t have. Feeling down during the holidays can be due to loss of a loved one, a divorce or separation, or the mere fact that someone is unable to travel to their family, forcing them to spend it alone. Today’s episode will visit these different causes and offer suggestions on how to get through it, but not in a way that just counts the days until it’s over. Rather, it’s about changing your mindset to redirect the focus of loneliness or depression onto actually celebrating and thus, thriving.
