Christmas Carols for the Psychiatrically Challenged

It made me smile and I’ve always felt that you have to have a sense of humor about anything, especially when it comes to dealing with depression and other things.

Those people who don’t laugh or seem slighly put-off by it are probably going to be the people who walk around on eggshells trying not to upset the “sick person”, instead of treating them like the same human beings they were before they got sick! You don’t want to depend too heavily on those people. 😉
