I feel like absolute trash for not knowing what to get my friends for Christmas and just generally not being able to invest too much energy into the holidays.

It is less than a week till Christmas and I still have not gotten anything ordered or anything, I have felt depressed and low energy these pasts couple of months, I cannot even keep up with my house chores which angers my roommates. I don’t think they want to hear about my mental health anymore, I think they are gonna be very upset when they bought me thing and I got nothing or just offered cash since I really have no energy to shop for them and I have no idea what to get and this has been a major cause of stress these past couple of weeks on top of non stop work, with only one day off in between. I just feel like I am crashing out and wondering if I should just move out and be homeless since I cannot really be the best roommate right now

Dont give or accept gifts.

Take your money and buy something for yourself.

If you want to enjoy family and friends do it by spending time with them.

My life became so much more relaxed when I stepped away from holidays and gift giving.
