letting the tears out

You know jazel_juan that is fine. At least once a month, I have an attack of extreme sadness, I just want to wallow on self-pity, I cry a lot. After a few days I am happy again and found myself silly making that drama! Then everything will go fine again, then next month I will have that same episode, I remember sad things and I just cry and cry until my eyes are puffy. Maybe it is normal. I just let it happen.

i know the feeling. there are many times that all i want to do is curl up and let things out but instead i bottle it up put on a smile and go on with my day. you are right sometimes you need to cry. it helps to relieve a lot of feelings that you dont have the words to say. usually a good cry can make you feel a little better about things. i hope that things get better for you :) mylot is a good place for the laughs and the stress reliever :)

when i have some heavy stuff to unload, i come here. i understand that you don't want to share all of the details, or even any. sometimes venting is doing just what you are doing now. remember that crying is just liquid prayers. what ever is that is going on has it's end just like everything else. you will smile again one day. i hope you feel better soon. try not to sit with it by yourself. find someone that you can confide in with this.

hi jazel you know... (I know you dont), you can always send me some PM or even an email or even a discussion here at myLot and I am sure, If I am online, I will be around to share - you can trust me, confide in me and even tell me your darkest secrets.... only thing - I dont speak the truth always (kidding) Seriously, I do agree with you that you need to vent off whatever you have - specially the sorrows and sad parts as I have suffered more because I kept them within me. I would still say that you should find some stranger with whom you can share them. I say Stranger because I know there are some bad people known to me who would make use of what I say to them. So I think a complete stranger is a safer bet. Go on, open a Chat accout with Gtalk or anything else, choose a fancy name, find some stranger, chat the pains and sorrows out... and never reveal who you really are... start with this movie for the basic guidance - "You Have Got Mail" - but dont implement the second half... lol

I cried this morning. For some reason it's less noticeable than waking up after crying at night, lol. I was raised learning that crying is shameful and only hysterical people do that. I didn't dare to cry for a long time. But crying actually helps a lot, even if it doesn't help the situation, it helps relieve the stress and look at things more calmly. But I guess I don't have to explain. Yes I have become a crybaby and I'm not ashamed of it any more. Puffy eyes are hard to hide, that's true... Hope you are feeling better

Crying is a way to let out our emotions inside. It's ok to cry.It helps to release the stress we feel inside especially if you have problems.I also experienced that thing. I cried a lot.I just keep the tears flowing in my eyes and release all the pain that I feel inside. I just locked my room so that no one can disturb me.I don't want anybody to know about it. After a long night of crying,it makes me feel better. I just think of happy thoughts so that I will not think of the pain that I feel. But then, I can't hide my eye bags from my friends. So I just pretended that a foreign object irritated my eyes and change the conversation.

I really am the person who lets all the worries and problems and all the hurtful feelings out by crying. Crying for me is really a good way to let out what you feel. Holding it will only drive you mad and will only make your day sad. I am smiling with you now. My eyes are also very puffy right now, we just had a small misunderstanding with my bf last night and I can't help but cry out the hurt I felt. I will be having an interview later in the offer, I work pm shifts so i still have time to try to make my eyes back to normal. Good luck to me n what my interviewer has got to say to my eyes.

Crying is good sometimes to clean our eyes. Two nights ago i was crying too. Just for no particular reason. There was no sadness in my heart but i just feel that i needed to release something out. I think my monthly visitor is coming.

That's right jazel. It's a good thing that you were able to let it out by crying. Crying makes us a lot better after that. They were made for that purpose. Just pray for it and think positive and smile.

hi there, i have been feeling so down lately and i just had a lot of problems with family and my boyfriend and it was hard for me to let it all out since i don't have any other outlets because my friends are all far from. it was really hard, but i had to travel 2 hours just to see one of my friends so i can talk to her. then sometimes i would cry myself to sleep and then my eyes get so puffy too in the morning hehehe

Hi, Now that you are fine after crying it is time to smile.... like laughing, crying too prevert heart attack..., so just cry and relax. There are many who think this place is for revealing their secrets.... have fun..

I LOVE to cry, so much so that my son calls me "Mrs. Water-Sprinklers". I love to cry because after a good cry you feel so much better, like some of the hurt has been washed away. You feel better. Crying is put in us as a natural stress reliever. There are some people that HATE it when people cry, but most of the time those people are AFRAID to cry. Some people think crying is a sign of weakness, when in actuality, it takes great STRENGTH to be BRAVE enough to cry. Not everyone is BRAVE enough to cry, they are too worried about what other people will think...and most of the time, who CARES what they think.

thats actually so great, I also do that but I don't let anybody no because I don't want them thinking I'm so weak because based on my friends I'm the type that stands strong and always smiles whatever the weather is ;) THATS GREAT MY FRIEND :) KEEP IT UP!

I understand that you don't what to share the specific reason for your sadness but I'll share to you a very interesting quote from the book "Tuesday's with Morrie". It says that by allowing yourself to feel emotions like pain and love you experience them completely. You know what pain is, you know what love is, you know what grief is.And only then can you say that " All right I have experienced that emotion. I recognize that emotion (in your case sadness). Now I need to detach from that emotion." So cry and let go.. be able to feel the pain so that you'll be able to get over it. Sometimes, you need tears to wash out the pain. You need rain to be able to appreciate the sun. Cheer up! Remember.. 'This too shall pass." :)

hi jazel___juan I have this terrible thing of crying if someone makes me mad enough and its so embarrassing too. I am usually a happy person as sad just makes you miserable. you do not have to explain to us anyway jazel we all have been there so happy happy here on mylot.We will smile too as smiling is good for all our healths. smile and the world smiles with you, weep and you weep alone. out of a poem I read eons ago.right now heavy stuff is off line here as we are a place for people to relax and forget their troubles.I call it mylot therapy and its sure a lot cheaper than going to some shrink. lol.from hatley.

Hi Jazel it is good that u realized u need to cry Sometimes i do that too when the trias is pushing me to the.edge and i feel i cant take it anymore in fact Sometimes i wish i can sleep and never wake up again

hi, i am agreed with you my friend,its really right to cry on when we have heavy problems in our life and i do crying especially when its all about love life,its such a nice feelings we feel when we cry out this feelings inside of our hearts.and after that we can feel a good and much better feelings.

Yes, it is a good thing to let the tears pour out for awhile for it serves as a healing device to move on from a painful situation. With regards to your reasons, sometimes we really have to share it so that we will lessen the burden our heart carries. Well, I'm not saying you share it here, but you could share it to the people close to you or share it to the wind, shout it to waves of the ocean.It is not a foolish activity, it's just that I'm an environmentalist and I think nature can really help us ease the burden in our hearts :)
