About this listen
For some people, Christmas is a season of sparkle, togetherness, and joy. For others, it can feel overwhelming, lonely, or quietly painful - and sometimes it’s a mix of all three. As the big day gets closer, the pressure ramps up: expectations, busy family dynamics, empty chairs at the table, or the weight of grief that feels heavier this time of year.
In this second episode of this Mental Health series, our colleagues from South Lincolnshire Rural Primary Care Network, Kavya, Melissa, and Leah, talk honestly about what Christmas really feels like - and how to cope when it’s not all festive cheer.
Together, they explore:
- How to get through (and even enjoy) a busy family Christmas
- Ways to manage if you’re spending Christmas on your own
- And how to navigate bereavement during the festive period
Whether you’re counting down the days with excitement, dread, or something in between, this episode is a reminder that you’re not alone - and that it’s okay to do Christmas your own way.
