Susan's Place Transgender Resources

Are you doing anything in particular on New Year's Eve this year?

Whether or not you will be with someone, remember that you have us here.

Just at home with my boyfriend. Will probably get an Indian takeaway from the nice local place though.

My days of going out clubbing through midnight are long gone! Sometimes barely want to stay up until midnight 😆

I intend to start the new year with a good night's sleep.  Other than that, nothing special.

I'm with Kathy 100% on this one!

However, PTSD and fireworks don't mix well. So we will see.

I do enjoy the fireworks show on TV from Sydney, Australia. It also doesn't run past midnight.

🙃

Asleep, after a lifetime of shift work I go to bed at 2300 every night.

Nothing planned. Will watch the festivities on tv and watch the ball drop in time square and then going to bed.

I'm not particularly excited about 2026 and it's possible that it will end up being a difficult year for me on a personal level but then again it's hard to predict a year. Life is very unpredictable so one never knows. Maybe I am pleasantly surprised. Usually I am more of an optimist than a pessimist so I have to watch my inner speech and attitude.

I'm with you on this one too, feeling sick in the stomach everytime I think about going into 2026.

But I'm sure that we are both strong and resilient to face anything that comes, expected or not. Like you say you never know too...things may at least be a little kinder than anticipated. Hopefully there will also be lots of valuable moments and experiences to balance everything out.

I'm rooting for you and wishing you strength and a great new year 🙂

Hopefully stay home. Listen to music like I always do. Maybe do my nails.

One has to cultivate the "glass is half full" attitude because it's too easy to become pessimistic. And while I am not a full on believer in the law of attraction I do think there is some truth to it. So I am reminding myself not to be pessimistic and to try to look on the bright side of things. And as I said - one never knows what a new year brings. Life can throw some unexpected surprises and some can turn out to be positives. One never knows.

All the best for 2026 :-)

I'll probably have a few glasses of wine, go to bed at 10.30 and then get woken up at midnight by fireworks going off locally.

I don't see it as a glass half-full or half-empty. I think the glass is too big.

I'm thinking I'm going into next year with a glass that's too small.  Big life change coming in 2026.

Paulie.

Enjoy your evening and then New Year's Day.
