English term or phrase: I’ve got a real thing about it
It’s Christmas Eve and the tree is not up and I’ve got a real thing about it; and then oh, I haven’t written my cards out and, you know, I haven’t wrapped that up and I haven’t finished buying for so and so and I do get in a bit of a state over Christmas.
Egy karácsonyi rémálom, milyen ismerős ... :))

Hungarian translation:annyira nehezemre esik, torkig vagyok vele, képtelen vagyok rászánni magam, elegem van belőle
Explanation:
Meg lehet finomabban is fogalmazni, mert elég visszafogottan fejezi ki magát, hiszen írhatta vona egyenesen azt, hogy "I hate the whole thing", vagy "I loath it" "I am sick of it" v. hasonló.

A kifejezés itt csak a fára vonatkozik, az "I do get in a bit of a state over Christmas" mondatrészben beszél magáról a karácsonnyal kapcsolatos érzéseiről.

agree  Jim Tucker (X): yes, my first impulse was "képtelen vagyok rászánni magam" - I even started writing that in before I noticed you had it first. It all describes a kind of neurosis rather than disgust.//BTW - note that "loath" and "loathe" are 2 different words.

  -> You put your finger on it: a kind of neurosis rather than disgust. Thanks.//Thanks again. I often miss letters.(I just wrote: agai* :-). And when I change keyboard languages too fast, the 1st letter often doesn't come out.
