Crying for No Reason: Dealing with Overwhelming Emotions

Super relatable. I cry for no reason a lot. Among other annoying things. It's ok- the more you stifle it the worse you'll feel.

I tend to cry very easily over small things. But I can't cry when it comes to big things like a close family member dying. I just lost my grandmother and I haven't cried yet. It's weird.

I never used to be able to cry but lately I’ve been getting carrying fits and just weeping over the smallest things. I do genuinely enjoy crying if it’s over something small. Weeping from true pain is not fun

Crying is so cleansing. I know it's generally painful but afterwards it can feel like weight has been lifted off. We need ways to release tension and crying is a good way.

It is okay to cry. It is cleansing.
