Express the thoughts or feelings that best describe why you are blue

Expression is the first rung on the ladder out of depression. If you can figure out why you're feeling blue, you're on your way to solving the problem. If you're feeling stumped by just what's getting you down, take a wild guess and go with your first answer - you might be surprised at what it uncovers. Here are some common reasons for feeling the blues in the holidays:

  • Too much to do, too little time to do it all
  • Nothing to do, while everyone else is bustling around
  • Feeling overworked and unappreciated
  • Missing family, friends and loved ones
  • Feeling like your life is so much worse than everyone else's
  • Feeling outside the circle of happiness
  • Not having enough social interaction

  • Remembering good times past
  • Being disappointed and having unmet expectations
