Avoiding negative emotions at Christmas time

 I saw a counsellor recently as I avoid deep connections as due to past experiences with people I thought were friends and family relationships.

The counsellor during our one hour conversation that I was random, observant, had unresolved issues, my live centred on my patents, I am adaptable, a freespirit, a planner and unresolved grief. Also that normally she would be able pinpoint people's issues and wished she could have another appointment sooner than a month away. 

I have a family pre Christmas get together. The last time we did this was my mums last Christmas. I want to avoid arguments that occur when my family gets together.  They don't get me most of the time. With my postive outlook, been told I make broad statements, not as smart as them. 

I have Christmas movies i have bought from Hallmark and other from the library to help me escape the reality of the next 6 days. 

I watch shows like Grey's anatomy, call the midwife and others that help me cry.

Here's hoping to good moments, fun times, good food, good photos and memories to look back on, on Christmas day.
