Spending a Christmas in New York while falling in love sounds great. So does staying in a cabin with friends or family, surrounded by giant snowflakes and cheery snowmen.<\/p>\n<p>While many people do experience joy during the holidays, it is more common that people share the realities of holiday stress, too. Some of these stressors might relate to the logistical stress of hosting one\u2019s family, feeding large groups of people with various tastes and needs, and putting aside your own needs to help with the chaos. Conversely, the lack of any logistical stress if there are \u201cno holiday plans\u201d may induce feelings of sadness, loneliness,\u00a0<a title=\"Therapy For Anxiety In Redding\" href=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/anxiety-tips-from-a-therapist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anxiety<\/a>, or boredom.<\/p>\n<p>Additional emotional stressors during the holidays may include\u00a0<a title=\"Therapy For Depression In Redding\" href=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/therapy-for-depression\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">feeling depressed<\/a>\u00a0when you \u201cshould\u201d feel happy\u2014the \u201cshould\u201d referring to what the movies signal society to feel. Or perhaps you dread the yearly holiday meal when you share proximity with an estranged, or even abusive, relative.<\/p>\n<p>These emotional stressors may feel isolating, but the reality is that most people navigate one\u2013if not several\u2013emotional stressors during the winter holidays. Remember, life is not like how the movies portray it, especially during the holidays.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14407\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14407\" style=\"width: 340px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14407 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-2.jpg\" alt=\"Managing Holiday Stress: 3 Tips from our Therapists\u00a0\" width=\"340\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-2.jpg 340w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-2-190x127.jpg 190w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-2-20x13.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Knowing your anxiety and stress triggers can help you take a step back in stressful situations.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Stress\u00a0Tip #2 &#8211; Identify your big triggers and develop a \u201cgame plan\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>Self-inquiry is a valuable process that can help people regulate themselves during potentially stressful situations. By knowing your triggers, you will be more likely to take a step back from the direct comment or action that triggered you, and take care of yourself rather than spiral or burst into anger.<\/p>\n<p>For many people, for example, navigating the holidays as someone with a previous or ongoing eating disorder is difficult. If someone comments during dinner about any perceived weight gain or weight loss of someone else at the table, what do you do?<\/p>\n<p>By identifying this potential trigger in advance, you can create a game plan for when it happens. So when Aunt Sally says, \u201cWow [name] are you going to eat all that turkey?\u201d right as you are about to enjoy dinner, you can remind yourself, \u201cAunt Sally is not aware of the harm of her statements.&#8221; If you have a partner or close relative at this event, and you feel comfortable telling them about a triggering relative or conversation that might come up, try creating a game plan, or create a code word or gesture for when you feel like you need physical comfort or reassurance.<\/p>\n<p>It may seem silly, but having a go-to internal script or plan during an unavoidable stressor, such as talking with &#8220;Aunt Sally&#8221; at Thanksgiving, can go a long way. Conversely, you can try to avoid sitting near a triggering relative during the entire evening, but that may be less in your control. Lastly, reflect on if you are are able to communicate with your relatives about your triggers and concerns before the event. This last option requires your relatives to have the communicative tools or self-inquiry to hear you, reflect on their actions, and change their behaviors.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_14408\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14408\" style=\"width: 340px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14408\" src=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-3.jpg\" alt=\"Managing Holiday Stress: 3 Tips from our Therapists\u00a0\" width=\"340\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-3.jpg 340w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-3-190x127.jpg 190w, https:\/\/namhs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/holiday-blog-3-20x13.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 340px) 100vw, 340px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14408\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A therapist can help you create a plan for managing holiday stress.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Stress\u00a0Tip #3 &#8211; You Have Permission to \u201cOpt Out\u201d of Major Stressors<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, you need to remember: you do not have to go to stressful, triggering events if you do not want to. If you have tried to set limits and boundaries with certain family members or friends, and they continue to not hear your needs, maybe you need a break this holiday.<\/p>\n<p>This is a major decision that can initially feel isolating. But it may be the best option if a \u201crequired\u201d event during the holidays could harm your mental health.<\/p>\n<p>If each year, for example, an after-hours Office Holiday Party always results in giving you an anxiety attack, maybe this is the year you do not go. Make up an excuse. Come down with a \u201ccold\u201d the day before. These options do exist. Your mental health matters.<\/p>\n<p>A therapist can help you explore all your options and create a plan that makes you feel seen, respected, and emotionally stronger.<\/p>\n<h3>Have a Question?
