Christmas Loungeroom

Christmas Loungeroom

For all those who are both celebrating and avoiding Christmas this year the Chistmas Loungeroom is a place for us all to hang out. It is especially for those who will be alone throughout this Christmas period and as a place to come together and enjoy the company of others in what can be a difficult time for many.

Feel free to post your stories, images, grievances, etc. of this period and to leave messages for other members to help each other get through this time of year.

Christmas day can be extra hard for some so this is a place for us all to get together on the day and share it with other members.

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

THNX @Zoe7 - non religious ppl at least try to gather with family, but mine is blown apart. Having said that, my son wants to be with me for this Christmas so I suppose I should be thankful and try harder, for him. If he wasn't here I'd check out, so very tired.
Shaz51, said "theres a difference between being religious and just celebrating christmas" i'm neither, but hear you.

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

That does make it super tough not having family around - but I like to think that we are all family here - in a very dysfunctional way - and you have us to lean on to help you get through @Former-Member It is nice that your son wants to spend that time with you Hon - maybe you could spend a little time with him and a lttle with us ...I am going to be checking in here across the day and you are on my list of people to keep an eye out for

Re: Christmas Loungeroom

Oh @BlueBay much of my childhood is gone too, blanked out in huge blocks. I have a lot of school memories but not many at home. I do however remember waking one night to dad putting presents on the end if our bed, mum would stuxkttape the light switches so we wouldn't get up before sunrise, it was so exciting, a big family and extremely animated mother sure helped the fun. Try not f you can to pull out one good memory and write it down in detail. It's hard with so much pain blocking but in time little bits will come through. Be strong BB, count your blessings. xox
