Do you ever just want to cry? Just to forget it all and cry?

Question

How do you stop feeling like that?

Answer 1

crying can actually make a person feel better. when you do stop don't you feel a sigh of relief?
but if you can't stop crying, there's either a reason you have to resolve or if not it could be a sign of depression.
listen to your fav. music, write about it, dance, work out, talk to someone you can trust, and get away from your present environment.

Answer 2

Crying could be very therapeutic and cleansing. So let it loose.

Here's an article I found on the subject:

It is a widespread belief in the western world that crying is therapeutic and also the converse, that failure to cry is a danger to our health. Randolph Cornelius (1986) systematically analysed the content of popular articles on weeping in the press from 1850 to 1985 and found a major theme was that crying was considered an important means of releasing physiological tensions; if it wasn't released, it would find an outlet in some other way, such as affecting the person's body and possibly causing disease. 94% of articles recommended letting tears flow.

Psychotherapists and counsellors from nearly every school or persuasion regard crying during the process of therapy as constructive rather than destructive, though there may be some exceptions to this general rule such as depression, some neuropsychological conditions and manipulative crying. Sometimes a patient enters the therapy office for the first session and may cry with relief within minutes in the presence of the therapist, who is effectively a total stranger. Often patients who cry during sessions whilst talking about subjects of crucial emotional importance to them, spontaneously say how much better they feel or may report in the next session how they were upset at the time but felt much better afterwards. Whereas in normal life people may try to steer others away from crying, in therapy the psychologist often steers into crying.

Added detail:
I personally don't cry often. I don't hold it back, the tears just don't come right away when I feel frustration, sadness or anxiety. But after a while when i'm tired and the setting seems apropos, it just starts and I let go--this happens to me maybe once or twice a year and most of the time by myself where I don't have to worry about anything or anyone having to worry about whether or not i'm ok--otherwise i may have to stop. Afterwards, I actually feel very good.
