Does anyone else have days were they just CRY? Not because your depressed, or anxious, or moody...because you're so strong.
Because you've been fighting this battle for so long, and you know it's been a long tough fight, but sometimes you need to breath.
Let your emotions out, let down your guard, & remind yourself you're still human.
Today is one of those days for me.
I know I'm strong, and I'm going to get stronger, but God. Sometimes it can be hard.
dbeck128, crying is my emotional release. I never feel guilty about it. There are
times I need it but deep down I know I am strong. It's okay to cry.

There are a lot of times I wish I knew how to cry. I can feel it well up inside me but then I don't actually cry. I'm not sure why.
I’ve cried sometimes when I’ve had a good day at getting back to the way I used to be. I just busted out laughing and crying at the same time when I was driving home after a solo trip to the store. I have been dealing with panic attacks and agoraphobia so this was another progressive step. The thing that got be crying and laughing was Fight Song by Rachel Platten came on.
Crying can be cathartic and calming hormones are actually released. I love how you recognize your strength! It takes a lot to be strong and we should be proud to acknowledge it.
Thank you! And you as well I love you are progressing!!
Thank you. I didnt even know what I was looking for when I joined today - but needed this. I dont want to feel bad for crying and worry the people in my life
I've had experiences where I've cried because I had to be strong. I remember being 16 and having to move out into a kind of hands off semi social care type thing, placement by the government. Suddenly I had to become an adult, pay for things, everything, make and do everything I needed or wanted for myself in my time without anyone's help. But the truth was I'd been doing most of it while I was there for a few years anyway. This was just a bit of a slap in the face. Having to be so strong so that you survive, and then realising how strong you had to be in order to deal with all this shit because you didn't get the upbringing you should have or have the childhood you should have or get experiences that you should have, altercations in between times and all round neglect to the point where moving out and doing everything myself was the only safe option left. I think I was crying because the weight felt too much. I think I desperately wanted some support.
Crying is never wrong. It's necessary and imperative to good mental health to let yourself cry when you need to, even if it's a hormonal day and you know it's stupid, just let the stress go with the tears and get it out of you. You'll feel so much better. Never let anyone make you feel ashamed of who you and or what you're doing, how you're feeling or what you're wearing. Their opinion isn't fact and no one cares so nor should you.
Thank you for your support ❤
Today I cried. Got up at one am and cried. I am strong. I am the backbone of my family and on the job but sometimes it gets overwhelming. That's ok. It's human. Because I am so strong people tend to think I don't need reassuring but it means alot to me. My coworker hugged me and understood. It would be nice for my family to do the same. I am the sole supporter since my husband has been unemployed for two years and we live with I laws. It's hard to be the one that everyone counts on but it's so much pressure. So I cried at home and then at work but I'm okay now and will keep going. I have no other choice. I am blessed to be strong because I have survived so much. It keeps making me stronger and that's a gift.
It is a gift Mel x You are a strong woman. Embrace that power, it
isn't given to everyone. xx
Yes!!! This is inspiring!! We are all the backbone for someone. We cant give up!!❤
that's so important to remember! that even if you don't realize it, someone is counting on you
Yes I have days where I just break down and cry. There is no real trigger. I wish I knew why.
Yes, absolutely. I really appreciate this post so much. Thank you for sharing it!
The BEST I’ve seen so far 💗💗💗
I'll tell you what dbeck128.... you find me Someone, anyone at all, who DOSE'NT do this....! Of course we ALL have 'Moments Of Weakness/ Realisation' a good Friend, some years back, had one- in a Swimming Pool, in Tenerife.... of all places. By her own admission, she was, 'Blubbing For England'.
So there is NO Shame, in having a 'Damn Good Cry', you go Right Ahead- You are doing Nothing Wrong.
