[quote=Anonymous] It's barely November and I am already dreading the entire holiday season. Although I have a sweet family of my own and good boundaries in place with toxic family members, the holidays are always such a sad time for me internally. I have so many memories of terrible holidays with abusive family members. I've done therapy, and I enjoy creating traditions with my own family, but the holidays always bring up memories of the past and remind me of the losses of not having the families with lots of extended grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc that I see around us. I'm sure everyone's holidays are hard for different reasons, so hoping maybe there are others who want to come back and check in to support each other. If you are already dreading Thanksgiving – come on in![/quote]
