I can't cry?!


Question:

I can't cry?

i used to cry a lot, like if anything bad happened i would cry, because i used to be one of those people that cried really easily.
last summer a lot of horrible things happened and i cried about it all a lot. i kind of told myself that i would stop crying about it cos it wasn't making it any better. since then i havent been able to cry. even when i've really wanted to and felt like i really needed to, the tears literally won't come and i'll end up just feeling really depressed, but not being able to cry. i don't know what to do.


Answers:

Well you put it in your mind that you would not cry, and so you are not crying anymore. Cause you thought that you cried too much. Well now you have to give yourself permmission to cry, and keep giving yourself permmission to cry, so that you can cry again. It is kind of like when i could not take any meds any more without throwing them up, it was in my mind, and i had to get over that, so i could take my medication, and i knew that it was in my mind, and it would be something i would have to over come. Also i could not cry at one time, but so my childern would see it was ok to cry, i let them see me cry, cause it is a healthy thing to do sometimes, and it let them know it was ok to cry, if they were sad, or got hurt.

Also as long as you keep telling yourself you can't well it is going to make it that much harder.
