Unfortunately, Christmas isn’t a happy time for everyone.
For some it can be a very stressful occasion.
Executive Director for the Beausejour Family Crisis Resource Centre Kristal Leblanc says we live in a society that says Christmas means having lots of gifts, and that can cause a lot of financial worry.
“We received many more calls during these months and it’s just that pressure of not necessarily having that perfect Christmas,” says Leblanc.
Others may be without family at this time of year, and that can also create a lot of sadness.
Leblanc says it’s important to remember that there is help available if you need it.
