Usually I can hardly wait for the holiday(s) to be over. Too much time with my mom is never a good thing.<p>This year instead of traveling all over my family came to me. This would have been wonderful except for the fact that I had 3 really needy guests (FOR 11 DAYS-NEVER AGAIN). In addition I had 4 nights of back to back parties (at my house), Christmas + an additional cultural celebration that went on for several nights, just too much to do in general.<p>In all of the hubbub I feel like I really abandoned myself. Today I feel physically, mentally and spiritually bankrupt. And it's a major drag. My moods are all over the place. And while i'm able to pull it together and still be a good mommy, I suck as a girlfriend right now.<p>I just wonder if anybody else is feeling drained and what you guys are doing to battle the post holiday blues.

Scarlett,<p>Yea, the holidays can do that to people. Just take a few days to pamper yourself for the next week or two. And spend quiet time with your son and BF.<p>[ January 08, 2002: Message edited by: zorweb ]</p>

The other thing that I figured out for myself was that I was sleeping, but not resting. My body does that sometimes. Where I don't sleep deeply enough or something. It's been a major health issue in the past and is usually a big cause of depression for me. It's actually a symptom and a cuase.<p>So last night I took 1/2 of a Tylenol PM and slept like a baby. Feeling MUCH better! [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img]
