[quote=Anonymous]When you say "christmas expenses" are you concerned about gifts or travel? Both are optional if you are stressed. Gifts can be cheap, you don't have to buy big ticket items for the holidays. Travel depends. I'd not travel unless it's obligatory family visit, and can only be done when kids have sufficient time off during school break. Even then, unless it's visiting elderly/sick family that may not make it till summer break, there is nothing obligatory about family holiday travel either. Your family will understand if you don't have money for 4-5 airplane tickets (and especially hotel if they cannot accommodate you) during busy travel season. If you have anxiety about end of year, likely, you are financially strained and cannot afford what you could last year. It's hardly uncommon. Don't feel bad about having to adjust. And don't think it's permanent. [/quote]
