Has your crying changed?

[TragedyBornCrimson]

My emotions get stored until they burst. When I cry it's like a thunderstorm, but never in front of people. I store it and just look numb most of the time.

I find it nearly impossible to do so these days with the exception of last month. It felt weird and difficult to do. I also felt ashamed doing it even though I was alone. In the past I always felt better after crying but not so much this time. No relief.

i think a lot of simple things can stress me out so much i feel it in my heart and the only way i think of relieving that feeling is to either cry it out but i only ever get teary eyed. whenever i do want to cry about things i can reasonably be upset over, i cant ever get those tears out and its even more stressful; i can feel pressure build up in my head and my heart just starts to hurt. my voice though, still gets shaky and my nose still gets runny. im embarrassed when i cry but sometimes i just want to bawl my eyes out and i just cant anymore

I cried like a year and a half ago while reading counseling options. I think I cried again at my dad's funeral, but I wasn't really sad - just emotional. I sometimes feel my eyes tear up, but I never end up crying. Beyond those two moments, I haven't cried in years.

I cried a lot during my childhood up until my late teens, but I've gone mostly numb since then.

I don't cry as often anymore because I cut everyone off, now I'm at peace. I cry sometimes, but that's because I get lonely with myself and my old thoughts. I purchased a small tape recorder and if I need to vent I use that as a diary and release. I guess I've become so numb and so detached.

I pretty much never cry now, but sometimes something will affect me on a deeply personal level and all the pain I've accumulated throughout the years will come out and I'll cry for hours. Once I'm finished, it's back to being numb and emotionless for months or even years.
