1. Self-help books
Similar to how gifting fitness paraphernalia is a bit problematic, having someone unwrap a nice parcel only to see Taking Control of Your Depression or How to Break the Cycle of Unhealthy Eating is only going to signal to the recipient that you think something’s wrong with them. Trust us, if someone is truly in need of help, they probably already know it. Save it for a deep truth sesh in a safe space among friends, not during a festive celebration.
