Navigating Anxiety During the Holidays
Some traditional holiday memories might include movie watching, hot cocoa sipping, gazing at lights on houses, eating delicious foods and desserts, gift giving, and spending time with family. While many can relate to each other over cherished traditions and memories with families over the holidays, for some others, the holidays may ignite a sense of anxiety, unbearable worry, and dread. This affects not only your emotional health, but may also impact your physical, social, and spiritual health as well. Anxiety is often followed by depression, and this vicious cycle can seem like it's never ending.
