?Christmas For One: Mental Health Over the Holidays"
spirituality. You might attend services just to experience human contact and community. People are generally nicer at Christmas.
Do all the things you wanted to do but couldn?t in your former life. Travel. Even in this post-9/11 world, you can visit faraway places. There are many tour groups for singles.
Attend art walks, holiday concerts, lectures, and movie screenings alone. Or invite a friend you haven?t talked to in a while.
Volunteer?it?s a wonderful way to make friends, stay active, and feel fulfilled.
Go out to dinner alone! While women in particular feel uncomfortable, project an air of confidence. You are a strong, vital woman. This doesn?t mean that you should go bar-hopping or take risks alone at night. But you have the right to ask for a table for one without feeling as though people are judging you. (Most people are too preoccupied with their own lives to notice.)
Gather a circle of friends or people in the same situation?just make sure the evening doesn?t turn into a pity party.
Don?t overdrink, overeat or do drugs. It?s just not a good tradition.
Bake cookies if you?re so inclined. Cookies make wonderful Christmas presents and ways to reconnect with your friends.
You may be tempted to think of yourself as Ebenezer Scrooge. Don?t, and boil anyone in his own pudding who calls you ?Scrooge.? You are honoring Christmas in your own heart and keeping it always. Christmas for one, anyone?
