Is crying good??

Question

i just feel the need to cry out loud ... i been through lots of things in my life and even now.. whenever i think of my situation i really feel down unmotivated helpless and i need to cry out but sometimes even after crying .. i dont feel good at all .. what is wrong with me

Answer 1

I think its good to get a good cry out every once in a while. Its better than keeping every thing in. I had a baby 4 months ago and I've been dealing with post partum depression. The first 2 weeks after having my baby was really hard for me. Its my first baby and I was just really overwhelmed. Im getting better but sometimes when I'm alone for a little bit I cry. I don't cry around the baby...that would just upset her too and I don't want that. It helps to talk to someone too. I usually call my sister or my best friend.

Answer 2

I feel for you, I truly do. I hope that whatever it is that is making you cry and bringing you down, is far away in your past. Your constant crying can be attributed to depression. Depression can be onset by traumatic events. If you just can't seem to shake it you may need to seek professional help.

Prayer or meditation can help. Also going out with friends, occupying your mind with hobbies or any true passion can make you feel a little better for the time being. Those moments of relief over time can help to heal your wounds and serve as a reminder that things aren't always as bad as you may feel they are at the moment.

Crying is good in moderation but you have to wipe your tears away and move on to things that will make you happy.

Answer 3

Yes crying is good
everyone has a little stress and EVERYONE
crys its a normal thing if you dont then there is obviously something wrong if you dont cry that means your bottling up all your stess and that leads to depression if crying makes you feel better then cry. IF you want to feel alot better
maybe goto a phyciatirist it will help there job is to tell you what you can do to make your life better. Think of everythign good that you can lok forward to.
studies even show crying flushes out toxins fprom your body and you should do it like once
every six months would be good for you
(even though you csnt make yourself cry).
Hope i helped dont keep stress bottled up and dont take it out by eating. As they always say
stressed is desserts spelled backwards so beware.

Answer 4

it sounds like you are depressed. You say you have been going through a lot if you dont feel good after crying its probably because those stressors are still there. Its good to cry but its also good to talk things out. Maybe ask for help before you get too burnt out even some good advice can help ya calm down.

Answer 5

The crying can be helpful in releasing negative emotions, but sometimes that is not enough. For some ot us, we are not able to release emotions that way. I have a special needs child (age 6yrs) and I have spent many days crying over my situation and fearing the future and cursing the past and the people who have made this journey so very hard for me. I have found a number of things that have helped:

Forgiveness exercises: People kept saying to me you have to forgive and release - but no one could tell me how. I started simply trying to visualize the people that I was angry at happy (and then I figured I would also try to see the folks I love happy too - it was easier to start with them). Sit quietly for 3-5 minutes and get a clear picture of the person in your mind and just see them happy and smiling - and the ones we love, happy, smiling, confident, healthy. This is not meant to condone their actions, just to release our own pain and break the hold those negative emotions have over us. It took me almost a week of diligent trying before I could even begin to see my mother-in-law happy, but after a week I was able to see her smiling and I could feel the loosening in my chest. I know that some people do not want to wish those well that have harmed them, but I say you don't have to love them, you don't have to want to be with them - but you will do yourself a world of good if you can release them and wish them well and break the hold those negative feelings have over you and your life. And please - at the end of each session, do not forget to visualize yourself - happy, healthy, prosperous and loved. Try to catch that feeling of peace and well being.

Intentions and affirmations can be really helpful - but only the ones you are comfortable saying a LOT. Many of us spend our worst days mentally berating ourselves or reliving the problems and pains in our lives over and over again. The thing is that whatever we dwell upon in our heart and in our mind is what the universe sends more of. Monitor your thoughts and when you see a negative one, gently correct it. If you hear "I feel terrible", stop and say mentally (out loud if you can) "no, that's not right. I feel better everyday." That reprograms your thinking until it can be positive on a subconcsious level.

Meditation tapes can be very helpful. You need to be kind to yourself. Treat yourself as June Cleaver (the quintessential mommy) would treat you. Eat good food, get plenty of rest. Take walks if you can. It's a new year and you can make a stand here and now to end the pain. These things cost nothing, are easily integrated into your life and take very little time. You have nothing to lose for trying them. Give it 2 weeks dilligently and I think you will be very impressed with your results. Believe it!

I wish you the most wonderful year of your life. May the new year surround you in peace and joy and prosperity such that you can breath and relax into the joy that life should be - best armed to tackle your own unique goals with the tools you have gotten from your own unique background (and by that I am hoping that you come away with compassion for people and yourself and a desire to treat people kindly and stay healthy, etc.). Many blessings upon you.

Peace!

Answer 7

They say that crying is the relief of the soul, so go ahead and do it until you have no energy, get all your frustrations out, it really helps. But also you need to do something about it, wherever is making you sad, just face it and trow it away! Don't let it bother you any longer. Sometimes he have to face things in life that is out of our reach so my advise to you, try your best, give your burderns to God and don't forget one thing.....LOVE YOUR SELF! No one is worth it more than YOU!
I hope this helps you a little, it sure has help me a lot!

Answer 8

When you need to cry then let yourself cry. There is nothing wrong with you for needing to cry. This is a human emotion. Just pick yourself back up and keep on going. That is all any of us can do.

Answer 9

there's nothign wrong with taking time for a godo cry when things are looking too bleak to handle. then pull your socks up, figure out how to make life way more exciting and enjoyable and set sail for the new territory and new adventure. After all, to spend forever cryign over spilt milk doesn't clean up the mess now does it. and we all know there's nothing worse than rotting milk.
