Sometimes you just feel like crying, and there is no reason for it.

I don't know why but i feel like crying today. This has been in me since many days but today it is overwhelming for me. Sometimes it happens, when i see every friend of mine so happy and settled. They are living their dreams, or i can say more than they ever expected from their lives. Whatever i try to do in my life to be little bit successful, it happens that i get failure from whatever i do. I haven't lost the game of my life, i won't lose either but i want to know if i will ever live my dreams. I have certain dreams which i want them to be true like it is life or death's question. But i feel so broken and helpless at time. Have you also felt the same anytime? Do you feel sad, broken and away from happiness too?

Yes I have it too. Already as I was a young child. I can't really say it's because I think everybody around me is happy, living/chasing his/her dreams since I know it's that is not true at all. Most people are just wearing a mask. Are struggeling day and night and what we see is seldom what they get. I also can't say I Always get those feelings if my life is at it's hardest since it's not. Those feelings (starting small by now I recognize it when it starts again) can also start if I feel great, if I have a lot of luck/success. I think it's just me. I also think it's normal and most of us have times/periods where we think over what we have or what part of our dreams we made come true. Also I think it's human to think only a partner can make us feel complete (which is not true). What works for me is to keep myself busy, to plan my life, to go for my goals, not to give up everything because of others (society, family, children, friends, etc) since in the end you will regret most the things you never did as the things you did.

We all do pass this phase. And the only way to get pass it is to be more aggressive in trying to achieve whatever we want to be able to reach our goal. There is really no use comparing your life with other people's life. They have their own story and so does you. You just need to be more focused and persevere.

I actually feel very broken most of the time. Since a very painful thing happened to me. I don't know how to put myself back together again and I don't know if I can ever recover and move on. I always think to myself and I always ask myself, Where did my life end up? Why did my life became so hard. What did I ever do wrong to be in pain over and over again while my friends from college have reached their dreams, where did my life went. I've always had high dreams and I look up to myself. But when someone made you feel so worthless, you lose all the things you believe in your self. So dramatic, I know. heheheh

Nothing happens without a reason and while you may think that your depression that you had years ago has nopthing to do with it, I feel that it has everything to do with it. Finding the cause of your problem, you are going to have to do some detective work. You are going to have to find out who, what, where, when, why, and how you are being activated into crying. You need to be aware of your thoughts and especially your feelings and emotions. Crying for no reason is a sign of depression.

It is a hard feeling which we cannot resist, it happens to me most of the time this past months and when loneliness strikes me I don't know what to do, feeling so sad and crying. Whatever I do it will never get away, sometimes I'm asking when can I have the true feelings of being happy... I am like a broken angel :( so alone

It is good to cry when you feel the tears coming. Spend some time with yourself and nurture your inner self. I always felt there was a little girl in me and I had to take care of her. That always gives me strength to carry on. Life is too short anyway to keep thinking of the should haves. Always think there is a bigger purpose in life and someone out there is caring for you. Things happen for a reason and if it does not suit us, then we have to experience it and come out saying 'ok now I have gone through this, what next'. Be happy. I know sometimes it is difficult but sometimes that is the only way. I have experienced the pits too and shed a lot of tears but after a time calmness sets in. The hurt goes away and the energy comes back to plan for new things.

I was like that until I got on medication but now I cry watching certain movies. I try to stay away from romance movies and some family movies because I know even with the medication I will still cry. I really have a lot to feel sad and unhappy in my life.

Oh, yes. I had that feeling a lot at some point of my life. There were days when I didn't want to get out of bed, or eating, or going out of the house. The sadness just lived for me. It is not right. One day I said "enough, girl ! you're young, you have so many things to do, you gotta have fun ! ". And I started going out, making new friends..I found friends in some people I never knew that would know that I even exist. Even tough I have once in a while moments when I feel sad and I want to cry, I just do it, cry a little, let my pain go away. And then I call a friend to go and drink something. Not to get drunk, just to have fun. You just be happy, have fun a lot, let people see that you're a fun person, and they will surround you, and from where you're not expecting, you will find oportunities to live all your dreams. Be patient.
