sometimes you dont cry when you feel like crying because you dont want to accept a fact -
that the particular person or situation can make you cry!!
it happens a lot of the time...
i know crying sometimes is healthy.. it releases tension..
i dont think its healthy to stop urself from crying just because u dont want to give that person the power to make u cry.

The thing that sometimes prevents me from crying is that I feel so damn lonely when I cry. So then the feeling I get when I cry is worse than the feeling I have when I want to cry but I don't actually do it. Usually in a case like that I turn to my boyfriend when the moment's right and then I cry in his arms so I don't feel so lonely when I cry. But sometimes it takes a week before I can get myself to let go. I believe crying is healthy, but I can't do it spontaneously somehow. Wow, did you notice the word "crying"starts to look really weird when you use it so many times in a sentence?

If this is the case, it would be healthier to cry. A feeling of safety to do so would help. Internalizing is like lashing within that can hurt a person physically and emotionally. Try to cry when you have total privacy. Practice everyday and your emotions should flow. Give yourself permission by saying to yourself even out loud that it is ok. I hope you feel better soon.

Hello dear. well in my opinion and mine only, I believe that if you do not cry, there is a problem. Its like if we only got sun and there was no water everything would burn, we need water. Plants need water to live. we need to cry to feel better. Girl just let go and let god. Crying is a cleansing of the soul. Loosen up. If all else fails try God, in my opinion. take care and stay strong.

It sounds like it could be depression. I know when I went through bouts of it, I felt like everything was so sad, I felt sad and couldn't put my finger on as to why - nor did I cry (but felt like it). I would say an occassional feeling such as that wouldn't be unhealthy - but if its ongoing, check with your Dr. Hope this helps!

No, it is not healthy. Crying is a natural and important way to experience grief and an aid to working through your grief. Let it out.. let it allllll out. It just might help.

Do you want to cry? Shame is the only factor I know of. and yes, it's healthy to cry.

I feel that way sometimes too. It's ok, I think it's normal. Eventually something will happen though and you'll get it out.

You probably need to see your doctor for some happy pills.

not healthy; go talk to a preist or psych doctor; too much bottled up; you will crack or explode eventually ; get it out and resolved or ........
