Happy Thanksgiving

I am having a little trouble getting through this day. We stayed home and it was quiet but I have been very anxious and nervous and dont know why? Maybe because I know Christmas is coming and I have to "get it together" more quickly for my family.

My husband was in a bad mood today, I think he is tired from the workweek and cooking the turkey, I sat with the family and said grace but I wrapped up my dinner to eat later, I have learned never to force food on a unhungry nervous tummy!! I ate a litte, very little, just a few bites of turkey, cranberry and a yam and a roll, so I ate something, he seemed mad I did not eat earlier but as you know force eating is not good. Holidays are hard, my parents are both gone and its lonely, sometimes fighting depression and GAD is a difficult as fighting panic. I did not sleep too well last night, bladder problems, getting up seven times to go to the bathroom can really break up you're sleep! I am going to walk the dogs and take a short nap and see if that helps the "inner nervousness and sadness" Its a balmy cool night so a little exercise will help. Does anyone else ever feel down on holidays? and why? Keep hoping its still PMS, I am keeping the journal and lists but I dont see the point yet, it kind of brings me down to write it all down! I hope everyone is well today.

I was not sure where to post this. I wanted to wish all the members and moderators Happy Thanksgiving. This is been a very rough year for me, one of the things I am grateful for is all the support, advice, information, prayers and encouragement from everyone on this site. Thank You! I hope everyone is having a good day. I am a little nervous today, holidays do that too me but I am trying to dwell on the positive and be grateful and thankful. Another year is coming and I want it so too be a good one for all. Happy Thanksgiving.
