RockabilliyMama, I do get flashbacks and given the right trigger I will cry too, don't feel bad. Let it out, its OK. One movie that really gets me going is Platoon. Near the end of the movie Elias (the good sargent) who after letting other soldiers evacuate first, gets left behind. He is chased by the Viet Cong, till they catch up with him and kill him. in this scene I start to sweat, my hands get clammy, my breathing slows down, I enter a kind of paralysis, and I cry hard. I have this theme in my childhood where I get left behind alot, in bad situations. i think crying in our cases is OK because there is a very good reason for it. Shalom.
