We all want the New Year holidays to be fun and joyful. However, psychologists say that many people in this period are sad. At the end of the year, we are engaged in a debriefing, and by no means always the achieved results satisfy us. What to do in order to overcome sadness?
Do not suppress your emotions
The causes of negative emotions can be different. Some people understand that they did not manage to solve their financial problems last year. Others regret that they could not arrange their personal lives. Still others worry about troubles at work. There are those who cannot even name the reason for their sadness.
Whatever is the source of bad mood, do not suppress your negative emotions. No need to pretend that nothing is happening, to portray joy and fun. Such a line of behavior will only aggravate the situation.

If you want to cry, allow yourself to do it. If you need to talk with someone, contact the person who inspires your greatest confidence. If you do not want to go anywhere, allow yourself to spend the day at home.
Do not compare
It is during the New Year holidays that many people tend to compare themselves with others. It seems to them that friends and acquaintances have achieved more, are faster moving up the career ladder, more successful on the personal front, and so on.
Their own achievements fade in comparison with other people's victories, which leads to the inevitable deterioration of mood.
Do not do things that will upset you even more. For example, refuse to visit social networks in which your friends and acquaintances post their best photos. Remember that in real life they can have even more problems than you.

Leave home more often
This advice does not mean that a person who is in a state of sadness should certainly attend every party that his friends and acquaintances have. However, voluntary self-isolation not only does not help to recover, but also worsens the problem.
On New Year's holidays, you must always get out of the house every day. Strive to spend at least 30 minutes a day on the street. If you don’t want to see anyone, you can always walk alone. The main thing is to regularly force yourself to leave the house.
Create your own traditions
Do not blame yourself for the fact that you want to spend the New Year holidays not as it is customary in your environment. Do not force yourself to do what has ceased to give you pleasure. If you are tired of the old traditions, it's time to think about creating new ones.
Have you always dreamed of spending holidays on a trip? It may be the perfect time to do this. Do not worry about the fact that you have to celebrate holidays on the road. The trip will give you new impressions, and a change of scenery will positively affect your mood.
Do not strive to inevitably do something unusual and interesting. Do only what really pleases you.
Take care of your health
You must make sure that lack of energy is not related to health problems. Use your free time to visit a doctor if you have been putting off the solution to this problem for a long time.
Use the holidays to restore your strength. Get enough sleep, exercise, eat right.
