I don't cry. It is no big deal. For me, there does not seem to be any particular reason to want to do it (in therapy or outside it), and I don't understand why it would be highly encouraged if it is not part of what a person does. If I were to cry it would be an unnatural act for me, and therapy is (in my opinion) not a place to pretend to be somebody one is not.

My T has never seemed to think it necessary or recommended to cry.
