Some people sometimes experience depression in December.

It would seem illogical: everyone around is busy with New Year's decor, public places are beautifully decorated, and people around are in high spirits.

However, a depressive state at the end of the year is not uncommon.

What could this be connected with?

You've had a tough year.

During the year, we can hold on and not react to negative events, but the resources of the nervous system are not unlimited. If you do not work through your feelings in a timely manner, then by the end of the year you risk becoming depressed, experts say.

Loneliness

If you don't have a loved one and family, then the New Year and its atmosphere become another reminder of loneliness. This is a great opportunity to think about the need for changes in your life.

Lack of achievements

Instead, it's better to analyze your mistakes.
