An Emotional Topic.

Well I can start by saying that I cry a lot. I'm not a cry baby well at least nobody ever calls me one but I tend to get upset about the smallest things. I mean if me and my boyfriend get in the smallest argument I tend to cry and I hate it because it is only showing him my weak side. But then again when it is something sad he tells me then my tears show that I care.

Sometimes well actually a lot of times I cry myself to sleep. I don't understand why or how I have that many tears but I do. It seems like when I am falling asleep every little thing is going through my head and I realize that it is bad in some way and then I tear up.

My emotional side is a big weakness of mine. I don't hold in my tears very well. Everytime I hear something upsetting I get that know in my throat that says don't blink or here come the waterworks. I think that stress gets to me sometimes and I just like to cry it out but I haven't really figured it out. I would like to get this problem fixed a little before college so I'm not crying about every little thing. I don't know what to do. I truly am lost and I might need help. I'm not asking for sorrow I'm just asking for advice. If anyone knows anything about problems such as this one please tell me what I can do to help it and please don't worry I won't cry.

I used to cry like this as well. The problem that solved mine was my mom passing away. I realized there are more things to be sad about bigger things than the everyday things we go through. I used to cry randomly and sometimes still do, but not in front of people anymore.

My mom used to make me ashamed of crying so because of that I think my emotions went crazy and could never stablize. I don't cry hardly at all now. When I do I don't want to be around anyone. I don't want anyone to see my weakness.

Try to realize that a fight is just a fight even if bad things are said. Try to evaluate things that are really worth crying over. it is very hard to change. Sometimes I would not be sad and cry. It was weird. I still admit I cry when I see those spca commericals with the animals or see someone hooked up to a breathing machine. If this helps try to set aside time to cry once a day by yourself. Write what your feeling down. This may also help you to not cry as much.

I know this isn't the best advice but it is the best that I can give. My crying disappeared randomly one day. I guess I became numb to pain. I don't know how old you are but maybe it gets better as you age. Being 20 about to turn 21 in Nov I can compare myself to when I was 17 and I used to just cry. It could also be age. I don't know. If you ever need to talk though just pm me.
