For me it depends. If I'm crying on and off for days, I come here and may post and read. I try to keep myself busy and around people to avoid isolating myself and letting the tears flow. Sometimes however, after a good cry, I can get a bit of release. But that's usually when the tears subside.

There's been some times where I've cried/sobbed for hours at a time. I try to reach out to a close friend who can help me through it. I've called a distress line. I called a crisis line as well... Which ironically gave me the message "we are experiencing a high volume of calls right now".

I hope your tears are dry soon.
