I'm so tired of explaining to my family that Christianity caused great mental/emotional damage to me for the first 20-something years of my life and that I refuse to celebrate a holiday centered around the birth of the christian savior (or the death and supposed resurrection of said savior a few months later). Most of my family isn't super religious and is just celebrating christmas because that's what our family does, but it *really* bothers me, because all of them (with the possible exception of my younger sister who might also be atheist/agnostic but I'm not certain) are still catholic and don't really "get" why I have a chip on my shoulder over this. Even just writing this I feel like a dick, because I know family is important, but I don't have it in me to really care about holidays anymore and I'm feeling exhausted enough right now that I really *don't* want to do a big family get-together (especially with the current bout of viruses in circulation right now)
