cry less

Ugh. I cry so much and I’m too old for this. People mistake the tears for weakness and if anyone knows me I am NOT weak. I’ve found that when I cry I go somewhere else. Focusing on the here and now by naming colors around me or even envisioning myself in a peaceful white room help curb the tears. I still haven’t managed to control it completely though because what I’ve mentioned before takes a lot of concentration which I don’t always remember.

its like something makes me sad or mad or happy or ill be laughing or whatever! and BAM! here come the tears and i get really ugly when i cry. my face gets all red and my eyes puff up, my breathing is strange, and i’m practically gasping. i cant get full words out. its awful. but i dont want to cry so much

Today I failed an algebra quiz. I’m a senior in college and I failed an algebra quiz.

I felt so stupid and wanted to cry in class. But I didn’t. I kept my head up and was strong.

So, awesome! I’m making progress.

i think i really have gotten more of a grip on my life and also try to think of things in perspective…:)

I cry so much. Over any little thing anyone says. It gets me and other people upset!! I know I have PMS at the moment, so naturally I’m crying more, but other times of the month have also proven to tear me up.

I’m getting sick of it, I feel like a crybaby whenever I start crying when my boyfriend is playfully teasing me or when my mom asks me to clean up my room.

I ask this; When you feel you are about to cry, what do you do? Are there any techniques I could employ to help cut back on my crying? I’m very sensitive to stress, and my mom is going to sign me up for yoga.

It’s also summer, and I’m happiest when I’m busy. My boyfriend is working long hours and is busy with his band, so I’m alone most days of the week. I have no job (Though I am looking) and I live in the country. I’m trying to do odd jobs for money, but I never seem to get around to do them. Any tips on what I could on the days I’m not hanging out?

PS- I have two close friends at the moment. One is visiting her dad for a few weeks, and the other is busy with work, so hanging out with them isn’t an option at the moment.

In conclusion, I think being busier would help me cry less. Irony at it’s best..

I changed my mind. It’s possible. If I think more of myself and less of my relationships. That sounds weird, but seriously that’s how it is. And I have an amazing best friend.

I guess this was a really dumb goal. I don’t actually care about crying, besides getting a really horrible headache after. Honestly, I just want to be happier, and stop focusing so much on a few things in my life. ‘Being happy’ is such a cliche thing to write on a goal list though, and I don’t even consider it a goal. I don’t know.. I’ll keep it on here anyways, even though I don’t think i will ever achieve it. I’ll keep trying though, because how nice would that be?

:( I’m afraid this might be too hard.

I cry, a lot. If someone says something mean to me : I cry. If I make a bad grade : I cry. If I’m angry, I cry. I cry even at things I daydream about. I’m not a baby at all in fact some people think I’m very cold and emotionless, but still I cry!!!!

Honestly, just thinking about stuff too much can leave me in tears. I have a very vivid imagination and even thinking about things that might or could happen can sometimes make me cry. It’s ridiculous! I’m normally an optimistic person so I don’t think just ‘thinking happy thoughts’ is going to work. If anyone has any advice on this one, that would be so great.
