Crying too often?

Im a guy pushing 30 and I find my self crying at least once a day. I never used to be like this, in fact, i used to actually struggle to shed tears when i was upset. Now, Im shedding tears at least once a day. I dont know if im just being a sissy, or if this isnt really that abnormal?
I never cry in public, I can control it. But when Im alone, i can cry for ages.. it does make me feel a lot better. I just feel a bit rediculous doing it...

I personally see nothing wrong with a man crying , for me you also a human and have emotion, crying relives stress off of whatever is hurting you and it releases endorphin into your body to help you feel better maybe its just about the time, all this time you keep things bottled up
But if you crying everyday for no reason at all maybe you should talk to your doctor or looking for help

I'm just going to agree with puffyprue basically. There's nothing intrinsically wrong with a man crying. There should be a reason... a strong positive or negative emotion. If you're crying every day though it sounds like you are depressed. Hope it gets better soon.

Thanks puffyprue and George. Life is just too messed up. Its all too confusing for me right now Maybe its like a dam overflowing. I could never cry before and now I can and the tears are just pouring out with a vengeance...

Are you depressed Chrome dome?
Has something traumatic happened lately, a death, a break up, job change?
I agree with the others crying is healthy but if it is happening for no apparent reason then something is wrong.

Thanks for the hugs Button I did go through a break up recently, but the crying started a few weeks before that... and it hasnt gotten worse since the break up or anything... I started working on improving myself around the same time this crying started... like doing exercises, eating healthier and trying to explain some of my other problems with others. Maybe opening up has allowed the tears to flow. But i feel sort of ashamed about it, even though Im alone.

It's nothing to be ashamed of. It's too bad it isn't helping though. What puffyprue said is the same thing I've heard...crying is supposed to be good for you in some ways.

Crying is healing, so let the tears flow and the dam break. This is a good thing, some times you have to get worse before you feel better.

Yea ive heard the same thing, about how it can be therapeutic and all that. I just dont know when its going to stop! I know you said its nothing to be ashamed of, but I really feel stupid when it happens, even though i do feel a bit better afterwards. Try work that one out...

I think youre right Button, but like i said to George - I dont know how long this is going to carry on for. Its getting ridiculous now.

just let it all out.. their's nothing wrong with that

then if you feel you need to talk to someone about what ever it is that's making you cry (if you figure it out) their are people out their to help you.

Maybe you're just making up for all those years you couldn't cry. Crying is probably the most healthy release for pent up emotions anyway.

I have this problem sometimes too..but the strange thing is I can't understand what's making it happen. My emotions are always like a unwound ball of colorless yarn and I can't pick them up to fix or figure out what they are...I've been struggling with identifying my emotions for a long time now...and can't ask for help to anyone in person.
