Who else is keeping to themselves on Thanksgiving?

My aunts having company over. She did invite me to have dinner with them. That was nice of her but I declined. I am thankful for having a family that doesn't pressure me into participating in holiday traditions!

I'm gonna do what I do everyday - stay in my basement. I feel awkward around social gatherings especially during the holidays. Everyone's cheerful and going about their lives. Meanwhile there is a constant war going on inside my head and I don't have the energy to pretend that I am content.

I guess I do feel ashamed to be me. It's a very humiliating feeling and pushes me deeper and deeper into reclusiveness.

I'm staying home as well. I don't like being around people, and my anxiety kicks in when I'm surrounded by too many people. The only thanks I have is for my family here on SS.

No thanksgiving where I live, fortunately. I'm just dreading Christmas.

I'm hiding in my room....

I have to go to the grocery store and drop off stuff at my aunts.

Fuck. I don't want to do this, I want to spend my day with you guys.

I spent Thanksgiving alone eating a microwave dinner. I also ended up going to Walmart on Thanksgiving. It was crowded there to the maximum. There was hardly anywhere to park and the lines for checkout were LONG. I was so mad, I just came there to buy some marble cake. I guess they had their Black Friday sale ON Thanksgiving.
