Is it normal to easily cry when somebody attacks me verbally(...)?

and when I speak about myself?

today I arrived late to class and this teacher was really mad and told me to tell her my name and that since the other day I fell asleep during class I was going to not get the full evaluation (according to me I only did that when there was a break :( ) and it was so fast but then i kept thinking about it and only a tear fell off. (This has happened before and also when someone is mad at me and offends me and I try to respond but i can't).
Then I was confronted by other teacher and she was sweeter and careful with her words and I explained to her (crying a lot) that I had depression and yesterday at night I had an episode and she understood but I couldn't stop crying :( I'm 18 years old and have been like this at least since high school.
I hate crying whenever I want to speak about my feelings, it's just so annoying and I haven't met anyone like this.

    I used to get very emotional during high school as well and still do on occasion. If you are having trouble though with it then you should seek therapy for it if you aren't already.

      I agree, a lot of people refuse to seek help from a therapist (or don't think about that possibility) when dealing with "small things", we all have problems and seeking to improve yourself is nothing to be ashamed of.
      I'd recommend OP to consider it to improve assertiveness, and if that's "too much", then talking with friends and family about it might give you a chance to open up a bit, and from there you can slowly understand your feelings a bit better, the first step to speak your mind is to build some confidence.

    I don't think this is particularly normal. If you're a girl then it's passable, but maybe you should see a therapist or something? I imagine if you could work through it then you would be able to express yourself more, and feel better too.
