Hey there,

Maybe there is a way to breakdown what it is your feeling;

For example, the next time you cry-or even if you can remember what you were feeling in one of your above examples (like getting your son to do your school work).

It might be really hard to do, but I'm always gonna be thinkin that there may be deeper underlying, unresolved issues here...especially since you said your mom did that too; to clarify, I don't wanna write it off as genetic. What wass it like to go through watching your mom cry? As a little kid, it must have caused you some distress?

You're afraid your child will turn into a "crybaby" as well?

I'm curious as to what you feel when you do not feel understood; it's okay if you're not sure...I think if you can talk about it though, it may help uncover some of these mysteries.

I cry at stressful situations too...usually when its the most embarressing...you know, like cry in front of my teacher as oppossed to not being able to cry at my T's. lol. Mostly for me, it is triggered by someone not hearing me out, or when I fear anger or criticism towards me. I just get this sense of hopelessness.

What all goes on in your mind before, during, and after you cry?

Take care,
