So, we're in 2026. The process of getting into a new year is mostly a busy, loud thing.

How do you do it? Do you have any ways of coping or getting around the stress?

For me it's mostly limiting the amount of people and having a safe space to be able to go back to when needed. But I am pondering better methods.

Edit: I mean the new years eve, party and fireworks directly.

Yeah, this time I was close to a meltdown. Hard to understand (by now I think impossible for them) and loaded with prejudice. But we will find a way, I guess.
