I don’t know how to cry for myself. Sounds strange, I know. I can cry for the pain of other people, movies and even books. But I don’t know how to cry for my own pain.
I just don’t know how to get the pain I feel out of my chest. I want to. Days on end I feel like crawling up in a ball and cry. But the tears never come. People can hurt me as badly as they want, and the best I can do is stinging eyes.
I read of other people crying themselves to sleep. Spending hours letting the emotions out. It is even advised as a relief and coping mechanism. And I don’t know how.
