#DuvetKnowItsChristmas happened on BlueSky this year and raised £28,000+ for Centrepoint Soho (as well as being lots of fun, with old favourites and new)
Hear hear!! If I'm honest, I would ignore Christmas if I could. It just reminds me of how many family members I have lost (including my darling mum), and there's so much pressure to see people who, if we're really being honest, you just don't care about and who don't really care about you.
I decided to start being a bit more open about how my Christmas was this year, because I'm so sick of having to adhere to social niceties - it's just not healthy. I've started saying things like, "It was ok, I find it a really hard time of year, so just had a quiet one".
I hope your sister is recovering well, Hannah, and that you are feeling better in yourself too.
With love to you, the Standard Isssue team and to all the listeners!

I’m so sorry to hear about your sister, Hannah; I hope she’s on the mend! Look after yourself x
Thanks Angela.

Thanks Claudia. And well done for being more open about how you actually feel. It’s hard not to feel Grinch-like, but we need to call out the BS.
