There can be some one who can share our grief ,not always we can share as if we try doing this at the same person for several times the grief loses its importance.The person may feel boredom also to listen to us. Nobody likes to cry in front of others everyone likes to hide it,Some times there is no control so we just cry off without noticing anything. However this hurts a lot,because crying can make us week and others can take opportunity of this and misuse it. So its better be on our own.

For me that is not a problem. Though I am an elderly man some times I cry. Thereafter I will forget and I do not mind meeting people. it all depends on the way we have been brought up. In my childhood I remember crying more often.

it is true crying before others may make others feel that we are weak. that is for that time only. Thereafter we can get back to our routine and be normal. Crying will of tension.

Well i like it when I have someone that can listen to me rant and scream and cry. I am so glad I have those people though. My sister and my friends will listen to me whenever whereever and I am so glad I have them in my life. And the other thing I have learned is that you write down what you feel. Absolutely everything. And it does make you feel a lot lighter. I learned that from a friend here on mylot. Absolutely does the trick :)

It is healthy to cry and get that emotion out of your system. When i grieve i get depressed, sleep for long periods and yes, cry also. Crying is actually very good for you. It is healthy. It is good to talk about your grief but in your own time and when you are ready to do so.

Hi Dassodils: I think I have the same reaction that you take at first. I mean, I first need to be alone to assimilate the pain and how I really feel but then I search company. It could be my mother, sister or brother, it could be a friend of mine that could be my confident or even Mylot. I look for someone to comfort me and let me know his/ her opinion so I see things more clear. ALVARO

yes. the strategy adopted by you is good. I am of the view there is nothing wrong in your crying before your close relatives. May be in college or in office you should not cry. Even in colleges I have seen While serving in Bank once I had to cry (even as Manager) because I uttered some remarks which were objected to by subordiantes as a whole. From then I am careful in talking to subordinates.

I rarely cry. I think neither crying nor not crying will bring any benefit to the concerned person. If ever I feel any likelihood of some harm happening to me, I pray to God in my heart and ask him to kindly escape me from harms. Though I am unworthy to get any good things from God, He was kind enough to do many help to me. He has allowed me to meet a man who could ask God and get reply from Him. When I attend meetings held by that person in order to please God and hear His words and beseech his help, God takes care of my troubles and escapes me in someway whenever a trouble comes.

I sit on my bed and cry out loud. Sometimes I will be crying practically everyday for days together. And since I live alone there is no one to console me or stop my crying.

I don't want to show it to others, either but the expression on my face never lies. My friends usually know that I am sad or have problems. There are other people who cleverly hide their feelings. When I am sad, I usually do not talk. I go out to a lonely place and sit silently. By the time I get better, I go home but this does not mean sadness is over. It may continue for several days till the problems are resolved.

We all have our own styles. I, for one express myself to my friends when i cry. It would be nice to hear other people's comforting words when you are in down.

I just experienced some gife so this is how I deal with it. Tell people who I like what is happening. Cry and cry and cry let my husband comfort Le if he can and cry some more. Not talk to anyone and go to sleep for a while. No words could ever be said to make it better for me. Let time pass and the pain slowly go away cry some more off and on for a few days but never cry in from of people I dont know.

hello dassodils! how are you now my dear friend? I express my grief in three ways.Go to a place where I could be alone and cry, then I will share it to others whom I trusted and loves me, most of all I pray. Being alone is sometimes helpful in order for you to meditate or have some realization about your current situation. I also share my pain to my families and trusted friends for me to have a sense of social support and to uplift my spirit from the comfort that they gave. I really thank them with all that I can. But here is the greatest thing I've done to overcome my grief..and that's when I pray. you know my friend, there's something in prayer which is so powerful that all my troubles and grief lightens after I pray. Friend, in times of loss,grief,trouble and pain,you are not alone because God is always with you. If there's no one you can turn to,well God is your best friend and He will give you rest. Happy mylotting!

I always write. It is my way of releasing my emotions. I find very soothing after I have poured all my thoughts and emotions on a paper or in cyberspace. Since I do not really take notice of what people say when I feel down, I resort to writing instead of speaking to people.

like all the peoples in too count among the human beings and being a part of this community i have also emotions and love inside. and being emotional from inside i too get hurt and have grief too. but i seldom express my grief and pain because i do not want other peoples to tease me for weak heart. thats why i do not express pain, i cry when no one is their to notice when no one is their to watch me crying.

Well I think everyone has to go through certain time spans when one find one's self in grief and grief alone. I do had to face certain situations and all I could do, in order to pacify myself, is just go to a secluded place, as far as possible from the cacophony of normal lifestyle. I try hard to make myself understand and get back to practical lifestyle.Sometimes I too, repose to music for attaining solace. :)

Usually I don't tell or express my pain to others. I just push it into myself it into myself. Why should I hurts other too ? At this time I just used to hear songs which keeps my mind cool. If the pain is much I will get into a long sleep. SO that I don't get pained much.
