I’ve found that, at least for me, I need to do social things, amazing things, and ceremony around it is also fine. Otherwise, I lose track of time and dark thoughts happen.
I encourage all to celebrate holidays or special events as much as you can, while you can. Every morning you wake up and can see and hear and smell and taste and feel and think. And if you’re short somewhere in that list, you probably already understand what I’m talking about. Life is short and a lot of people want yours to be shitty. Don’t let them win.
That being said, if you like playing videogames, don’t let the people who don’t appreciate that to make you feel like that isn’t quality time.
My admittedly boring method:
stay home
do stuff, maybe video games
go to sleep whenever I feel like it
wake up at the normal time

I used to stay up when I was younger just to witness the year changing, but now I’m old and just go to bed. It will be there in the morning.
I’m with you
