What makes you cry?

[3mtn-kate]

honestly i hold the sad emotions in and cover them up. its bad i know but i cnat do anything else with them

thats exactly what i do too

i know it's not bad to be sad but it just makes me feel so weak (now I AM NOT saying that sad people are weak it's just me) also i pride myself on being probably the most emotionally strong out of all my friends (again i'm not bragging just saying) and i will not do anything to sabotage that

My uncle/grandfather died about 3 years ago.
Wow, right now it seems like it was yesterday.
But whenever I think of him, thats what makes me sad.
I loved and love him so so so much.
But I know he wont have to suffer again and I'll see him again one day.
Thats what helps me get through.

The e-mail my ex-boyfriend just sent me made me cry.

I usually don't cry, though. I keep things bottled up forever...if I'm mad or sad or depressed - no one can tell. I can hold everything in for a long time, but eventually I'll break down. I did that recently; laughing or crying for no reason. But I cry at night when everyone's asleep, and I keep a journal thing on my computer, where I write down EVERYTHING that I'm feeling and thinking. It helps tremendously!

Now, real-life doesn't make me cry that often; deaths don't make me cry, nothing like that. But stuff in movies and books, I bawl through.

I'm just a screwed up person.

I'm a big cry baby.
Almost anything makes me cry: when people yell at me, when people yell at each other, when other people cry (RL or movies), when I get injured, ect, ect.
Basically I cry a lot.
I'm also an expert at making myself cry. I can work up a good amount of tears on command, which can be incredibly useful.
Unfortunately, I wear about 20 layers of non-water proof mascara erryday, so I try not to cry in public because it's messy and awkward and grrross.

However, a book has never made be cry. Or a magazine article or anything like that.

I usually keep my emotions to myself. The only thing that will make me cry is emotional pain. I can take whatever kind of physical pain you throw at me; I don't care how much it hurts I usually just grimace and keep going. I just can't deal with emotional pain. I went to a funeral yesterday, and I was very close to the person that died. I think thats where I get a lot of my personality traits, but I just couldn't deal with the fact that I wouldn't ever see him again.

my grand mother passed away not to long ago now when ever im in church i start tp cry cause it feels like she is there with me. so to deal with it i say a prayer for he to rest in peace and stuff like that then i feel happy

I cry that I don't have any friends any more and yet I remember what a great thing it was to have them...
It's been a long 9 or so years since I shifted homes and never made any friends since and It's like watching TV everywhere I go as things just seem so pre-determined without me.

Just wish I could forget things, every time I wake up and go to sleep and the time between I remember when I was a kid and had no fears, had friends, support and courage and if I could forget these things I would have no problem with who I am.

It's just that contrast in my own life: then and now...

Hey all.
I havent been on the boards for a while, because I've been so busy. Today was a tough day for me. My great-grandmother passed away and I really miss her. Today was the first funeral I've ever been to and Im quite sad. I was fine until I saw the open casket and heard/saw my mother crying. The actual part of my great grandmother passing didnt really make me cry, because she was very sick and she was ready, but seeing my mother and famliy so upset just broke me. So I have a question, what makes you cry and what do you do to deal with it? You dont have to answer, but I would greatly appreciate it if you would help me. Thanx

I'm sorry to hear. My grandfather died recently. He was sick, as well, so he was really better off. I do miss him, but what really upset me the most was seeing my grandmother and my dad and uncles all mourning his death. That was one of the toughest parts of the funeral.

A lot of things make me cry. That makes me sound like a wimp..haha.

I cry for so many reasons, most of them random. But I mostly cry funerals, soldiers dying in the War Against Terror, songs about death and those left behind, and when I leave Disney (haha! I had to put that in here!)

Other than that, I cry when I hear a song that really means something to me, when I read/hear stories of people dying and reuniting with their loved ones up in heaven, when I watch sad/moving movies, at church sometimes, sometimes when I pray, when I'm really angry, whenever I feel completely helpless, when I hear happy stories, especially of ones where soldiers are reunited with their families, when I laugh, when I'm at Disney, when I really want to get away, when I feel completely at peace with everything, weddings, and when I read a sad book.

Oh dear, I'm such a wimp!! Hahaha. Some of these don't actually make me cry, but make me feel like crying (which I consider to be the same thing). And some of them aren't crys from sadness, but of happiness.

A couple years ago, it seemed like my family members were dying off left and right. I was always visiting someone at the hospital, and when I wasn't doing that I was at funerals. It was hard, but I didn't cry much. A lot of them were family members I didn't know very well.

When my uncle died, at first I was emotionally paralyzed, I couldn't feel anything. After a couple days past it seemed all I did was cry. I couldn't stop thinking about how I was too scared to say goodbye.

I don't really cry unless something really really hurts me, or tugs at my heart. Like when I'm watching TV, and somebody is about to die, saying their final words, I usually tear up. Or if there's family problems going on, I will sometimes cry. Or if I really really miss someone.

Otherwise, when something bad happens I usually just become emotionally paralyzed. It's like...nothing. I feel nothing. When my grandma had surgery, I knew she might now make it, but I couldn't cry or feel really sad. I just sat there in the waiting room, waiting for the doctor to come out.

I'm sorry for your loss, OP.

 

[reminisce]

thats terrible. ive never had anyone i know die, or at least when they did i didnt understand anyways and it was no one i was close to.

anything really sad or really happy makes me cry..unless im pmsing, in which case everything, even lack of sadness or happiness, makes me cry. even a song or movie can set off tears. im not saying i cry a lot, though, because i dont. i dont really listen to/watch sad things that often and ive got pretty boring life. --whoops, sorry- i ranted a bit

As a lot of you know, I lost my aunt to cancer this year. I became VERY close to her during her time of suffering. She was going through so much pain, I wanted her to be painless, and we all expected her to die very soon anyway. When my mom told me she died I just was paralyzed. I did not settle in. I never cried then because I was expecting it. I almost cried in the funeral home when my grandma (my aunt was living in her house and died in her house) broke down (they were sisters.)

I also lost a not too close aunt a few weeks ago of brain disease. I only met her only 5 times, but she was so funny and so fun to be with.

I am sorry about your loss Doug.

I cry when my Mom or Dad come home like 2 minutes late from work. Like I think they died.. and I don't know.. I am always afraid something bad happened.

When someone yells at me my eyes get watery..
I cry during sad movies..
I cry when people die..
I cry when I think about all the people and animals that are in pain..
I cry thinking about my old dog..

Hugs to everyone.

I don't tend to cry that often. Every once in a while I'll just start crying though, mainly because it's been so long since I cried last.

Thoughts and stuff. Thinking about people dying, especially since I've never experienced ANYTHING like what people go through when someone dies (having a goldfish for one half-day before it died does NOT count, even if I was still heartbroken) hurts like heck to consider. It's not so bad now, but when I was younger I would stay up all night long, terrified and crying because I was worried about people in my family dying.

Other thoughts make me sad, and that's why I despise the night. There's nothing to distract me, so every little suppressed emotion comes out and I end up crying all the time at night. Over life and what's happening/not happening, about the world, about myself, about stuff I need to or want to do but don't... over everything. I hate nighttime because of what I end up thinking about. :

Being lonely makes me cry ALL THE TIME. Probably more than anything else. I just learned to suck it up and focus on something else.

TV doesn't usually make me cry... emotional scenes or stories can affect me, but not usually to tears. Sometimes, yes, but it's gotta be a *very* emotional scene with characters I already know and care about. Same with books, pretty much.
