Christmas Issues? Psychosis?

Ever had a case of Christmas blues? A seasonal depression, that materializes during the Christmas season, sometimes triggered by loss. (deaths, aging, loss in general, etc.) It is usually alleviated by the holiday passing.

In the past there have been times, I must admit, I have wallowed in self pity during the holiday season. Said wallowing did nothing, by the way, except make everyone elses lives miserable at Christmas. Maybe setting them up for future holiday depressions triggered by lousy memories of a self absorbed family member that sabotaged the happy occasion.

Enough said. I am thankful my tearful self absorbtion did not turn in to a full blown psychotic rage like the following PA man who apparently had not been a good boy this year.

Man allegedly burns home after getting no gifts

"He was irritated that his family gave him no presents for Christmas," Lower Southampton police officer Peter Liese said."

He apparently had himself committed, checked himself out, walked 8 miles to his parents home and torched it.

I guess he was trying to make a point of some kind?????
