From what you wrote, it sounds like you can get depressed even outside the Christmas/holiday season. The holidays can sometimes aggravate your mood further. I can be much the same way. Sometimes, when I'm out in public during this season, I get disgusted and depressed at the sight of smiling families with loads of shopping bags while there are homeless people begging in front of their faces. (Of course, the smiling families ignore the homeless, usually.) But who am I to criticize? What do I do to help the homeless?

Going off on a tangent, I realize, but maybe it helps to know you're not alone.

I don't know that living solo in the apartment is best for you. Are you a college student? Or working a new job that takes you away from your native city? In either case, it might be useful to join a social club of some sort. Maybe you like to knit or read or play a particular sport--- join a club that engages in the given activity you enjoy, ideally one that meets on a weekly basis. If you have the time, perhaps a volunteer position in which you interact with the public (or, conversely, with a small group of kind people) might ease your spirits.

If you have the means, please see a therapist. Some take patients on a sliding-scale payment basis, which is more affordable if money is tight.

Feel free to email me, if you like. I used to be (and sometimes still can be) quite similar to what you described.

Late add: You might be able to receive a limited number of free therapy sessions through your school's student wellness/health center. I did this at one point, and I can't tell you how much it helped, even though I didn't realize it at the time. Please look into it if you haven't already.

im me if ya wanna talk

or email's fine too

Sometimes the Christmas stuff makes me sad too. When that happens, I come home, go to a room in my house that has no decorations and get on the Internet, read, or watch something on TV that is totally non holiday related to get my mind off it. When I feel this way, I try to stay away from all the Christmas stuff.
Call a friend and talk about this instead of cutting, OK?

better cry

Pray

My recommendation to you is that you should get a companion. Yes, right a companion someone like yourself should never be living alone. All these feeling you are experiencing will all go away once you have someone you love and trust someone who will really listening to you and care enough for you. The way you are living your life right now is not good for you I don't care what the reason is it will only harms you in the long run, it's not worth it. A degree is not Worth more than your precious life. I'll pour my heart out for you Yin Yang Girl I'm very worry about you and I want all the good things coming into your way, your life. LOL
