	Are you having a Charlie Brown Christmas?
		This year as I watched the Charlie Brown Christmas special for the umpteenth time, I found myself suspecting that he was experiencing a "Charlie Browniest Christmas" or a case of the "Holiday Blues." As the show proceeded he revealed his feelings about Christmas, "I think there’s something wrong with me. I just don’t understand Christmas.
		Based on his description of how he is feeling, Charlie Brown appears to have a classic case of the Holiday Blues.
		For those who have experienced a significant loss or change during the year, it is normal to feel subdued, reflective and blue like Charlie Brown "I don’t understand Christmas.…Instead of feeling happy, I feel sort of let down." Laughter and happiness are perceived as sentiments for others, not for someone grieving a loss.
