that the crying (grief) stops when you allow yourself to cry. When does it stop?

It stopped for me when I could not cry anymore...I mean that one day I started crying but no tears came out. After that point I think my body realized that crying does no good and my saddness level is much lower than it used to be. Now don't get me wrong I still miss my wife and kids, but I do not become a complete mess when I leave them. September, things will get better...I know this for a fact.

Crying comes in "spells" because your body can only physically cry for so long at one sitting. I have it on good authority (my T) that you cannot cry yourself to death. It's just another good service provided by our body trying its best to take care of us.

Crying is a cleansing, Dragon. It's been proven that tears wash away impurities in your system, especially if we're hurting over something. You must have done quite a bit of cleansing.

I needed the release for sure, but I wanted to stop. The tears kept coming. Not much I could do about it. It might not have felt so lonely if I had someone hold me. That was my own doing, though.

I hope things are getting better for you. I'm still rooting for you.

had a session with tears myself this morning... the cleansing kind... easy to go back there too...

probably will... i don't believe its supposed to hurt to breathe... maybe after some clansing there's more space for hope...

I have cried more today than my whole life I think.......I have none left....a build up of anxiety caused it and so much guilt for me being like this and putting my family through this hell illness...I started (or my illness did)to think my children depised me, they came in tonight and hugged me so tight and a cloud lifted and a light went on.....how powerful is a little love???????

My spirits have lifted.....crying, hugging......fantastic release

Even when you have cried soooo much you are convinced you can't shed another tear. They never seem to completely disappear.

Always there lurking, waiting for that vulnerable moment when they appear again. Sometimes just a fleeting thought, visiting a familiar place or a chance meeting with an old friend is all that is required for the flood of sorrow to return.

We try so hard to avoid those triggers, keeping thoughts traveling along other lines. Then without warning the all familiar sadness returns, pressing down on our souls.

Know what you mean. I found an unexpected letter of apology in my email today. The progression of emotion was tough to handle, but by late this afternoon, I started crying for different reasons... then my baby boy called me and the tone of his voice touched my heart and I cryed again. All of it for different reasons. I'm still sniffling but I hope before I go to bed, it will be over and my spirit will be more at ease.

With all that's happened today, I related very well to what you said, too, Froggy.

((((tomi)))) for some of us, sadness is a constant companion. it is for me. as for tears, i've cried for so long that i've ended up with a headache.

My eyes have been burning all day. As soon as I think I've got it under control, something else happens. Nothing major... seems like almost anything can set me off and I don't know why.

Oy - this is where i'm at too - one of my dearest friends (died 6 years ago) and i used to sing in school and do caroling. The Christmas songs always put a knife in my heart. Lil Drummer Boy came on today =( His b-day is Saturday and i'm just sad right now. I really miss him. It will be interesting, too because I finally just re-joined a choir and naturally our concert is on Saturday.

I buy them by the case so I only have to go shopping once a week.

Just ask Muffy, I'm more than willing to share.
