cry help: to put bluntly im trying to cry lol - Help.com

thanks heaps :D it really helps to read that, it makes me feel like i know more of whats going on. I was thinking maybe it is a semi conscious thing why i cant? i used to be overly emotional though, like cry at nearly everything untill one time my parents told me that id never become a lawyer (what i used to want to be :p) because i cry too much and there was this huge fight, i never wanted to be a lawyer since lol, but never could cry since either, not when alone, not even when i really want to, lol thanks though

Onions.Cut up an onion-put it in a jar or something-when you get the urge to cry hold it under your nose.Or stare at a small flickering light and think back on the things that used to make you cry or the things you really miss.

lol the onion one i know works but not the sad type of cry lol, more like the argh argh onions in my eye!! haha, i tried thinking of sad things, that kind of works, i get the feeling just before im about to cry, like vrything goes up to the top of your chest, then it just dies.

it may be a subconscious thing. i’ve heard people say that they’re so destroyed and beat that they just don’t have the energy to cry anymore. i believe there is such a phenomena.

yeah thats a good point lol, maybe that could be what it is, i used to cry heaps, maybe i kinda used up all my crying from back then

haha thats funny :D but yeah true, maybe i can find a wiki page of it :p i looked up some websites, and seen a few people post the same thing on yahoo quesstions and the likes, lol some saying its depression, others saying that its just what guys do. maybe i can find a sad youtube video lol thanks

.Try it sitting alone in the dark with a small flickering candle.The small flame may help surface the emotion before it dies out.It’s just a thought-for some reason, when i stare into a small flame my emotions tend to run deeper than normal-or maybe I am just weird-who knows-LOL

thats a good idea i think i will try it, good idea with a candle too, i was wondering whether i would have a lighter that would last long enough lol i know my emotions do run more when staring into a fire, i just stare and think :D thansk for the idea.
