James, I can relate to you. Sometimes we need to cry in order to release

some of that overwhelming pain and stress. Good Luck with your appointment

its okay to cry, let it out! its really healthy to express your emotions this way. We all feel this way sometimes, don't fret it! maybe have fun with it and throw in some ben and jerry's ice cream to help you relate to most people who do it! And don't feel alone, know you can talk to me if need to, or anyone else in this community! best of luck <3

I literally just did this today! I do feel a little better. And I feel very overwhelmed and stressed. I don't even know what to do.

Yes I can relate, I have felt like that the last few days, I have been down with a virus, spend a lot of time in and on my bed. I live by myself, have no family near me, my friends are dying (I am 78). I told myself to go ahead and cry several times, but it did not come, I think it is related to being ill and all by myself, no one to talk to. Thank goodness I have a great therapist, cannot go to her office because of Covid, but she does call me twice a week, which is a big help. I learnt thru therapy and good self help books, to go ahead and feel what my feelings are, I address them, then get busy and they go away. And James, you also have tear ducts, go ahead and cry, it is good for the body to cry, it flushes out toxins and makes us feel cleaner afterwards. Do not buy into that old rubbish about "Men don't cry", be kind to yourself and listen to your body.

Your Dr. may say you are depressed and prescribe an anti depressant - low dose, I like Prozac it worked well for me until I built up a tolerance. I have been on antidepressants most of my life and they help me function. Agora is a very smart woman, she always gives sound advice. So write to us, we offer support, love and empathy, sending you peace and strength with love n hugs.......Sprinkle

I found this quote you might like. “Tears are how our heart speaks when our lips can not describe how much we’ve been hurt.” Hope you like it.
