#surviving the holidays
Just a reminder, you are NOT required to accept gifts and cards from people you’ve gone no-contact with, even if it’s your parents.
I just slapped ‘return to sender’ on a Christmas card from an abuser.
I’m not gonna let it ruin my day.
Since the holidays are upon us, just remember to take care of yourself.
I know the holidays are hard. I know some families act worse than monsters.
I know a lot of people don’t have anyone to rely on.
But if you can’t do anything else, please be kind to yourself.
