Hello my dears,
Another year has gone by and it feels like barely any time passed and the whole world changed at the same time.

This is the darkest time of the year - for the northern hemisphere at least. For many this is also the most joyous time of the year - the food, the lights, the celebrations or whatever makes the holiday season special for them.
But many of who are struggling, be it PTSD or something else, find it often to be the hardest time of the year.

Not only is there the long darkness and missing daylight, but also the strong contrast between those celebrations and their day to day struggle.
And it is completely normal to struggle especially during this time - it is completely normal and many are affected by it. This is sadly one of those times, where it is best to just sit back a bit more. Not a wise thing to try to swim against the current.
And it will pass - as is always does.

But the holiday season can also be the perfect time to take care of yourself a bit.
I hope you can take the time and treat yourself with something. Doesn’t have to be big - maybe some chocolate? A good meal would be nice. Maybe go somewhere nice you haven’t been to for a while? Play a bit? I always enjoy the light decorations.
Whatever makes you feel better and you can do.
 
Hope you all are doing well.

I wish you a happy holiday season and a good slide into the next year - as we say here.

Take care and watch yourselves

Johanna
