Perspective: New Year’s Day is trash
“It was so sad,” says McCrossen, a history professor from Texas. “There was just trampled-on confetti everywhere, and it was empty. It just did not feel like the triumphant beginning of the new year.”

Some people need to process whatever happened with their families, or the experience of going through that time without family or friends and “dealing with feelings of rejection or loneliness,” MacNair says.“Whenever my clients use the term New Year’s resolution I make a cringe face,” she says. “I don’t want them to do that. Because it sets you up,” says MacNair.
