Last year I made myself a turkey sandwich for Thanksgiving. Looks like I'll be doing the same this year.

I miss my family when it was normal. I miss my mom. I miss my dad before he became an alcoholic. I miss having friends. I miss being happy

All I wanna do is curl up into a ball and cry

No one deserves to feast on a single turkey sandwich for Thanksgiving. No one.

As depressing as your situation sounds, I hope Christmas and New Year's Eve are a whole lot better.

I'm sorry, the holidays can be the hardest for people who feel the loneliest, even on a normal day.

Rather than think about how terrible thanksgiving might feel, I'd like to just skip over this and go straight to wishing you a wonderful christmas, with a month featuring days that look better than November ever did.

And if that doesn't work, post and I'll see what feels funny on that day.

if that doesn't work, I'll mail you a turkey sandwich, with all the trimmings :)

We'd totally share our Thanksgiving with you if it were a possibility

I already know we're making too much food for just my partner and I...could use some help eating it all

I know that endless 'it'll be better' platitudes often don't do much, but I hope that they do get better for you.

I wrote this parody of the intro to Hurt, by 9 inch nails earlier today.

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus, on my wang
The foreskin there, is real
I look inside the hole
The scorpion's painful sting
I try to feel through the pain
but now I can't feel anything

It's clearly a work in progress that's destined to be a multiplatinum record one dayl

I hate to be one of those people who are grumpy on the holidays but I can't help it. It's just extremely painful. It's a reminder that no one likes me, that I'm repulsive and stupid and an annoyance

I have no real love for the holiday anymore either on account of having several family members deciding it would be the best time of year to die (not by choice mind you, their health conditions just had awful timing), on top of my being too poor to afford anything for the meal anyway for several years now. (I haven't even had a pumpkin pie in over a decade.)

Even this year I had to content with my dad dying back in October and the possibility I might end up homeless by December. Moments like this make me wish I could just mail-order a cyanide pill, it's just not fucking worth it anymore.

Not trying to one-up topic creator or anything mind you, rather, I can empathize with having all these feel-good-with-company holidays lining up and being left feeling miserable instead because of it due to a lack of anybody to actually celebrate with, or hell, not even having the solace of trying to enjoy them alone. At best I have my brother with me, but he's become an increasingly depressive (and possibly crippled) wreck too.

You should try to volunteer at a soup kitchen. It always cheers me up. Seeing people that have nothing makes me feel better about my own life.

That didn't really come out the way it sounded in my head. More like, seeing people with nothing makes you appreciate the things you do have.

Ok wtf, how is pouring a meal that's in no way enough to feed a person who's been on the street all day going to make you feel better if all you get out of it is noting that you are glad for your electricity, iPhone, car, clothes, family that loves you, pretty much everything those people don't have.

Unless you are willing to do something about their plight, this act is nothing more than a selfish pat on the back. Otherwise, they have homeless people that can earn their bed for the night doing your volunteer work that you only do to stroke your own private e-peens.

Oh damn. Im sorry. Keep telling yourself this is temporary. Things will get better for you girl. Youre beautiful and sweet. Its hard now but I promise you can reach a point where you can forget these days. Just need to be patient. I really wish it didnt have to be that way for you.

I hated holidays for the longest time. At my house, holidays always meant a massive fight, or cops being called to my house, or me getting smacked or something. Those days are far behind me now, and they will be for you too.

Thanksgiving is pointless. I always volunteer to work on holidays, they mean absolutely nothing. Last year I worked all day on thanksgiving, I didn't have to be with people I can't stand, i got off work and played video games, like any other day.
