What do you do to keep from crying?

When I get upset, I cover my face with my hands and say, "I will be happy someday."

1. I am not depressed generally, though I appreciate the concern. Everyone gets upset sometimes.
2. I'm talking about in public-like places. I feel fine crying in private. I'm not suppressing any feelings.

what kinds of things make you sad? that's what you need to figure out. covering your face is to not deal with reality and to not deal with reality ia not going to make the sadness go away. do not hold in the tears. GOD gave us the ability to cry for a reason the reason was to get it out of our systems the bad things in our lives that make us miserable. so when i feel like crying i cry. privately. i go to my bathroom turn on the water and cry. afterwards i feel much better. is there a friend that you can talk to when you feel this way. a minster, priest, rabbi? again back to what makes you feel like crying? maybe you need to see a therpist if this is a frequent situation.
