Take it slow, keep taking care of yourself and keep taking care of other people, too. There are a lot of people who've had a much worse year than you. I'm not saying this to minimize your pain or try to make you feel guilty. But you're alive at the end of this year! You still have so much power and privilege. That's awesome. It's your turn to share. Please use that power to make the world a better place. You know how every Christmas movie is about the magic of love and belief, and usually that might sound pretty cheesy, but this is the time of year when you can kinda believe that it's possible. Try out some earnest do-gooder stuff and volunteer or go caroling, or call someone you miss. Be patient and kind as much as possible. You absolutely have the internal resources to make life a little better for people you meet. And if you have financial resources to donate, please give to charity.
You don't have to be do everything, but do what you can. It'll feel a lot better than trying to hide. And in general, give yourself good rest and hydration. Mercury goes direct on 1/9. You got this.
