Do you cry very easily? It happens often with me.

Do you find it hard to control your tears ? Whenever I am upset,before I realise I find my tears rolling down my cheeks.It can be embarrasing sometimes,especially when this happens amidst people whom I am not very close with. I also find myself cry when I am very angry.My mom says its okay to vent out my feelings,but I don't think I am very comfortable with it. Does this happen with you too? How do you control your tears? Kindly suggest how to have a grip on it.

I don't cry too often and I find it embarrasing to cry in public,too,lol.It's a good thing that my lacrimal glands are less active in a public places. I think your mom is right in that when you let it out ,you can move on.Otherwise,you carry it along and when you are oversaturated with the trauma ,it could explode.I'd say crying is just another way of expressing ourselves and don't feel embarrased coz when you cry you don't hurt others,only let out your anger or grief.Imagine what would happen if you can't quell your anger and blast someone.You might lose a friend there.So,don't worry about crying.People understand it and to let you in on a secret-it melts many ;-) ssshhh..

You are correct.Its definitely better than losing a friend.And as for the secret of melting many,I think that can come handy later :) Thanks for the lovely reply.

LOL!Looks like we are similar in many aspects.Even I cry really easily.I have tried hard to control but in vain.And yes needless to say its so embarrassing especially when I cry infront of people I am not close to.Even when I am angry instead of just venting out my anger on that person or screaming at that person I end up crying.Well this used to be before when I was in school.Of late no such incident ha happened *touchwood* :P

i cry alot especially when im so upset or very angry that i want to shout or get in a fight but cannot or just opt not to. i also cry when i feel hopeless and i feel that i cant do anything. I cry a lot even if i am happy i do shed tears. im a very emotional person, you may call me cry baby just like one of my officemate has called me but i don't care that's how i am and i makes me feel good after i cry because i no longer carry those heavy loads.
