I have what i feel is a problem. help would be lovely.
I can't control my crying. I cry a few times a day, and sometimes the crying can last for hours at a time. It can be triggered by almost anything. Some days are worse than others. I can sometimes go a day or two without crying, but sometimes I have to hide because I don't want people to see me when I'm crying.
Only a few people know about it. I only do it when I feel really safe with someone or when I'm alone. It puts most people off. I haven't gotten close to people because of it. I wouldn't want someone to feel like my crying was necessarily something negative towards them. I could be feeling something positive and be crying.
I had a boyfriend and he left me because of my crying. He got angry at me, because of something I have no control over.
I don't know why I express myself through crying more than anything. I feel like everything just makes me go crazy. It can be triggered by both good and bad things. I can be really happy when I cry, but it doesn't look that way to other people. Things that would be small for someone else, would make me cry in a heartbeat.
As much as I would love to have control, I don't. I would love it if someone would be understanding. I'm not suicidal and I don't think I'm depressed, because I've been like this since childhood Does my problem have a name, or am I alone? Am I crazy? Would you hate me if you met me?
