lec	That's always a tough part of the holidays for me too. I know that it is hard to be by yourself on Christmas, but I always try to appreciate what I do have. Also watching sad movies always seems to make me feel better. Wishing you a blessed 2008. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

LizzaPiza	Gemma, I am sorry you are sad. It is almost 2:00 pm here and I am alone. I am not sad because Christmas eve is magical! Think of only happy times and yummy goodies! Get out if you can and look at the Christmas lights! Go to a neighbors and even if you don't know or like them, knock and hand them a treat of some sort! Go to a local church and there are many last night candlelite services, even of you are not religious, go. Pray for those less fortunate than you (there are always people with less and are sick or hungry) Put on some happy snappy music!!! and SING! Put on funniest videos and LAUGH you head off!!!! Bless you and Merry Christmas, from your friend in VA. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rachel k	oohh!! don't be so ,please !! I know maybe u are lonely and depressed today but tomorrow i am sure will be so good .Think about the good moments u get before today and the good news u wait for!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

transitangst	No, you aren't alone. And just because there are people worse off than you doesn't make your situation great, either. I hate when uppity folks tell people to "get over it" just because we aren't starving or dying of AIDS. I've seen plenty of homeless and sick people who at least have friends and people who love them. I'd rather take that situation. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Terry H	Gemma, I'm so sorry to hear that you feel this way. I think a lot of people feel down at X-Mas, because there's so much hype leading up to it, and you feel like if you're not a part of it, that you're very much alone. Please don't feel this way-- you don't have to sing carols and all those silly things. Just relax and let Christmas be whatever it is for you. Try to enjoy the time to yourself. You could even do a X-Mas related activity, like bake cookies, or go out and rent a Christmas movie if you like. Otherwise, just enjoy the peace and quiet, and remember that you are a special person. God bless! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

John625UK	Welcome to my world... Try having that feeling 5 days a week for several years. I'm at the point right now where "insane" would be the most precise diagnosis for me. Not Clinical Depression, low self-esteem, feeling disgusted at myself,... too many to list so "insane" is much easier. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

michaelJ	the holidays always annoy me. but the new year is exciting. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Maze	The only thing I'm depressed about is if someone breaks into my house. Just hang on there you might feel better when Christmast is here. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rubber losanges	Poor you - do you not have family you can be around at this time? It sucks if you compare yourself to others and they make light of your situation - it is not nice to be alone. I know what it feels like and hope things get better. Merry Xmas Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

shelby W	yep ur not alone Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥Galley Chan♥	trust me there are others out there in the world who feel lonely just as well. look on the brighter side of life! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sourgirl	not the only one! ARRGGG i hate my mom Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

catwoman	Yes but I refuse to succumb to the TV at 6pm - maybe later. I am catching up on housework (long overdue) and trying to keep busy. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Me	Hey there Yes I was feeling low about xmas and feeling alone and sorry for myself because I don't see my family and have no partner or kids etc, it can get you down, I am lucky to have friends but still these things can make you feel like crap. I decided to try and change my tune though after talking to a homeless guy I know today. I asked him how he was if he had a place to stay over xmas and what he was doing xmas day - you'd expect him to look sad and say "it's sh*t, I've got nowhere to go and nobody to take care of me, it's cold and I'm all alone" but he didn't, he said something like "I've not got a place to stay but I've got plenty of warm clothes. It's not so bad, is it? I'm going for christmas dinner at the shelter tomorrow, that'll be good - I never starve. It's not like I'm living in a war-torn country, is it? There's no serious drought or famine here, is there? And there are lots of generous people out there. It's nothing to be miserable about, I'm lucky really." It inspired me because I thought, in his situation if he can still be positive and see good in things then I should be able to as well. It might be hard somtimes and I feel like the only one suffering but I'm not - and other people manage to stay positive and not let the hurdles in life get them down. When people in a better position than you tell you "not to worry, it could be worse" you think 'Yeah right, what do you know'. But when someone in a worser place than you can look on the bright side their strength of character is inspiring and it makes you want to be like them. I'm going to try and be like him, and count my blessings instead of measuring how much greener the grass is on the other side of the fence. Also, a complete stranger said to me once, when I told them I'd be alone at xmas, "You're never alone really, because everyone and everything is in your heart" - I thought that was quite sweet. I hope you feel better soon. Look after yourself this xmas. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

NARAYAN R	I cannot think of a better way to be miserable than to sit in the comfort of one's drawing room , watching TV ! There are millions who will go to sleep tonight on an empty stomach ! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dinos23381	I moved to florida from ohio 4 yrs ago. yes good move weather wise but i've never been more lonely in my life. i really, really, really, really, really, really, get tired of being bored and lonely, can't ya tell, this time of year is bad for me. i feel even more sorry for the elderly, it's probably like that for them year around. something else to bring me farther down...... the thought of getting old and being alone. anyway merry chistmas and baugh humbug. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

impurrfect10	I am so sorry sweetie. I feel like this every holiday. Don't watch the sad movies. hun. If you have family especially kids try to be around them, Go to church etc. I am here for you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wd21	depressed is not a strong enough word to describe the way i feel right now. I'm in Kuwait, my two year old is in the States, my first Christmas away from her. I'm going about insane without my daughter, my family and my friend. But you know what i'll be all right. Happy holidays. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sunflowerbabiee	Decorate your place or bake some cookies. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

notyou311	You know what? There are charities that desperately need your help. Help them fix and serve a meal for the needy and you will feel wonderful about yourself. Go to a nursing home and help the elderly folks have a nice Christmas. Christmas is all about giving. Try giving of yourself and you will be richly rewarded. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Gen•X•er (I love zombies!)	People put so much importance on this one day. It builds up expectations and blows everything way out of proportion. How will you feel after Christmas? Do something that you enjoy and be peaceful with yourself. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
