Hiding that you’re a train wreck at Christmas.

Christmas is coming, and that means all the feelz.

Let’s face it, you’re a bit of a train wreck at the best of times… well either that or you seem to have a cold black stone where your heart should normally be, but you hold your shit together pretty well, considering most of the time. However, Christmas is coming, and we all know that means alternating between being very very drunk and having the fear — two of the most delicate and emotional states of being. And this is when mistakes happen.

Whatever it is that messes with you this time of year, you need to protect yourself and project at least a half-decent image of the more together you — because let’s face it, you’re a shite human being, and you’re going to be plastered and emotional.

So here’s how:

1. Before drinking, change your Facebook status privacy to ‘just me.’ Nobody wants to see ‘fjsisneiejs’ at 4.50 am, a crazy long YouTube party, or any of your thoughts on the year when you’re locked. You won’t even want to, and it’ll make your fear worse.
2. Ask for approval in your settings before being tagged in photos, or things bad things will happen.
3. Delete toxic people’s numbers out of your phone, so you can’t drunk dial them or ring them when you have the fear.
