I never ever did that except from when I was bored but I rarely do it now.
The piece I wrote here might help: http://forums.psychcentral.com/adult...ars-grief.html

Others will try to stop or shame us about our tears because they are desperately trying to keep their own tears and pain UNDER CONTROL and your tears threaten to make them break down and cry also!
For me, tears are both essential and one way to heal old wounds, so LET 'EM FALL!
