According to Anna Bennich, there is both a stigma around being alone at a family holiday like Christmas, but also that many people sometimes find it difficult to find themselves in loneliness or sadness. - It's crap this time so it's not so strange that you're down. But we also need to help ourselves to mix up those sad things by doing the things we feel good about, says psychologist Anna Bennich in Aktuellt.
When many are now alone, it becomes extra important to hear from them.
- Last week, the Swedish Public Health Agency sent 22 million text messages.
I think we can do it too, but with a little richer content for our loved ones, says psychologist Anna Bennich.
