I've been having a relapse of depression and anxiety for the past month or so. I'm under treatment with a psychiatrist and waiting for the anti-dep to fully kick in. Still, on occasion, the anxious thoughts in my mind build up to the point where I just need to cry. I don't know why I'm afraid to cry - maybe it's because I'm a man and we're not supposed to cry - but I do feel better afterwards, and the anxious thoughts sort of go away, at least for a while. Anyone else have this experience?

I'm not a man but that "men don't cry" is such a myth. Crying relieves a lot of tension. Whether crying from happiness or sadness just means you have feelings. What's wrong with that?Don't feel bad at all.
I’m not a man but I can’t imagine having depression and not cry.
