January is depicted as the most depressing month due to gloomy weather and the failure of New Year resolutions. Amidst this, Belgian Isabelle Gonnissen aims to combat negativity with her '30 Days Without Complaining' challenge, which debuted on Blue Monday—the day considered the year's most depressing. Although the idea stems from a pseudoscientific concept, it seeks to foster positivity. Interestingly, the article explores the benefits of complaining, acknowledging that small doses can relieve stress, counteracting the notion that complaining is always harmful.
Research shows that letting off steam in small doses can help with stress relief, while holding in your feelings can hurt your mental health.
According to the NL Times, the campaign launched on Blue Monday, which is supposed to be the most depressing day of the year.
