I can't stop crying for days on end. What do I do?

Identify why you are crying, it could be a hormone imbalance or if the result of an emotional trauma it might be healthy to release your emotions.

First take down paper and pen and write down a question why I am crying? Then answer all possibilities and try to solve one by one start by the easiest one.

The problem may be rooted in a deep-seated issue that a clinical psychologist can help with. Going to get help, even if it is stigmatized in our society, is very important. Knowing what you need and going to get it is the best step. They can set up interventions and even psychiatry visits if you need medication to get you through the tough time. Just, don't be ashamed of feeling how you do. The emotions are telling you something, and it's best to get help from someone if you're crying often!

See a professional. Talk to someone that loves and supports you. Think about ways to connect with others..

Sometimes its just alright to vent out all those emotions in form of tears :) clears the brain &soul

It's best to find out the cause behind your tears. What is it that is making you cry and once you find out what it is, then you can search for what to do.

From my personal experience this might be caused by mild depression due to various factors; sometimes even factors that you yourself is not consciously aware of. Get some exercise; move and burn up some of that excess adrenaline that you are producing causing some if not all of the tears. Journal ; whether it is writing it down or making yourself a voice recording or video; Journal about all of your emotions. but target happy small pleasures as well. Intentionally laugh at small things (even as it is difficult to focus during this time). I don't have advise on how to stop the tears once it has started flowing; but these that I have listed here helped me to greatly reduce those tears.

Crying is a humans way of experessing various emotions; sadness, happiness, etc. To bottle up your emotions is going to harm you mentally, cry if you want, cry until it feels like your sorrows has gone with along with your tears. Remember after the rain, comes a beautiful rainbow💋

Have you tried doing something that makes you happy? Like reading, drawing, watching your favorite tv show, etc.?

Hi there! Im so sorry to hear your feeling so emotional. Do you enjoy any specific hobbies? Is there anything you can do to take your mind off things? If there is things going on in your life at the moment try and address them to see what could be the cause of them, but if your not ready to or if there isnt anything worrying you then try not to dwell on it. Pick yourself up and maybe do something you like to do. Crafting, drawing, singing, listen to music or play games. Sometimes your body needs a very good cry and it can be natural to have this moment over a few minutes, days or hours. Remember if you need to talk we are always here 247 and 365 days a year. Take care and good luck xx

First, try to calm yourself and accept your emotions. Then do some of the relaxation techniques. Next, forgive yourself and others, and do something nice for yourself :)

I know life can be tough. That’s why when you begin to feel sad you gotta pick yourself up. Once you start crying you start to cry about everything else that has went wrong in your life. Know that life isn’t prefect, stuff that have happened in the past shouldn’t consume you - they’re meant to be forgotten. You deserve to be happy ❤️❤️ Each time you feel like crying i want you to call a best friend or a family member, often calling a loved one cheers us up and helps us to remember our worth. Take care

Sometimes it's okay to cry. But to stop you can try and distract yourself, find some form of escapism or something that can make you laugh, such as your favourite TV show. Reach out to a trusted friend or family member, they can help cheer you up remind you of how far you've come and put things into perspective. Have a dance party to your favourite songs if your able. Maybe meet up with people in a safe environment and do a fun activity. It will take your mind off it and give you a dense of normality.

First of all I want to ensure you that it is okay to cry, let it all out. Though, maybe it is time that you spoke to someone, whether this is a friend, family member, counsellor, someone at 7Cups; whoever it is, they can help you through this time or point you in the right direction. I want to remind you that you never have to go through this alone. You have a whole army backing you. You are NEVER alone! In the mean time, perhaps indulging yourself in things you enjoy. Maybe this is a certain food, writing, painting, a good book, or spending time with a close friend; whatever it is, allow yourself to enjoy it. Don't be afraid to reach out, you can speak to me if you would like.

Crying is a thing that we all do to show a variety of different emotions, crying can be for happy or sad reasons but sometimes people cry for no reason, some might think how can you cry about nothing, but it’s not about nothing it’s about you as a person. I understand how it can feel to be like this confused, sad, happy, depressed everyone has been through things like this. If You know why you feel a certain way should find that reason and think how you can get rid of it. Crying is a natural thing to do and there’s nothing wrong with doing it just turn sad tears into happy if you don’t know what your crying about.

Just let it out, tears are not meant to be kept inside. Also, speak to a doctor/social worker/psychologist and see if they have any insight. Also, talk to a friend, sometimes sadness needs to be shared. There can be many reasons for crying and it is natural and okay. Our bodies give us signs to tell us something is off, and this is our body's way of telling us. We need to take care of our self or be kind to our self. You deserve it. Just remember it is normal and in time things will change. You will be okay!

Have you ever considered Meditation? Mindfulness Meditation is very effective at helping you controlling your emotions. Maybe try some guided Meditation sessions online. Also, you may want to read about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It helps you understand the relation between Thoughts, Feelings and behaviors. You'd start to notice when are you reacting to things and when are you responding to them. Many people think that the situations we go through result in us feeling in a certain way, therefore responding to them. While in fact, It's essentially the way we perceive things that gets us to feel in a particular way about them.

Ask yourself if you're ready to stop (more important than it seems) Understand crying is a natural function of the body, crying constantly for days on end should something of a warning light If you haven't already, it might be helpful to find a safe, isolated location Focus all attention on a noise in the environment (helps to bring you "here", quiet mind noise) Attempt to physically calm through "box breathing", 4 in 4 out 4 hold. This can also minimize panic attacks The words we say and thoughts we think can have power over us, in that we use them to make connections to meaning. Try to refute any thoughts that are obviously out of line, so you don't wind up convincing yourself you agree with them. For me, that's as simple as saying "refute" in my head. If you live with loved ones, it's a really good idea to let them know what's up. This minimizes their potential distress at discovering you and establishes a route for support, if necessary. If the breathing and focus has succeeded in bringing the crying to a halt, I try to return my expression to a more normal one and relax my forehead, scalp, neck and shoulders. If I feel my eyebrows furrow, I try to limit that and return my focus to the base of the skull or nape of the neck. Following all this, if it's possible to do so, I try to be a little more understanding with myself. If there's no obvious reason for the crying, it may be that there's something of a block there, and that thorough exploration of the source might be needed. For the real work, serious introspection and honest assessment is required. This process can be painful, but I can't stress enough that if you've actually gotten this far, it feels like the "right" kind of pain, and can lead to much better times. Hey, I think this is a process much like any other. Crying is good to release that stress but if we've built up so much that it's haunting us day after day, it's an obvious sign -- like a warning light -- that we need to pop the hood and look at what makes us work. At the end of the day, prevention is worth a pound of cure. Stay in touch with yourself, stay true to yourself and when you mess up, forgive yourself and you'll be much better off than... ...uh, all of us, I guess. Stay safe, guys.

Think about why you are crying what makes you cry for days? Think of is it worthy to cry is it worthy to be sad. It could be anything a breakup, family issues, break up, bullying etc but everything will be okay and better. These days will pass and tomorrow needs you. You should be strong for yourself first. Talk with your loved ones ask for an advice or want them to just listen you and understand you. I promise everything will be better so don't make yourself depressed sad. You don't deserve this. Love yourself stay healthy and try to be happy maybe you ca read a book watch your favorite tv show/ movie or you can go out and walk watch the sunset sing a song write down your thoughts anything will work. Love you lots♡♡♡

Crying can be a release. Something has likely been overwhelming your mind, and you are letting it all out when you cry. Surprisingly, a number of emotions can be behind the release. When you are crying, take a deep breath. Then notice what you are feeling, and WHY. This part can be difficult and takes practice. Often, people cry because they can't take one more thing. Most people's lives are full of stress, to the point where their bodies are constantly on high-alert. This can be exhausting, and can lead to the release of crying. If you think this may be the case for you, you may want to read this article: Finding Freedom from Fight-or-Flight . I know from working with my clients, that it definitely is possible to learn new strategies to deal with life's storms.

Is it that you have found comfort in that? you have to root out the problem and not try to make home of this situation. Often we become comfortable in the situations. Especially when they are bad. Because we don't know how to get out of them anymore. We forget that the answer to the situation is within our own-selves. another thing is the more you put your attention to this problem you have, the more you will think it actually EXISTS and you will think that something is actually WRONG with you. I hope it helps you out though

There is definitely a reason within. Sometimes talking to someone we trust works and sometimes there is the need to seek professional therapy. I think its best if you reach out for help by firstly talking to understanding friends or family members. If you still felt bad for it then comes the next option which is talking to a counselor. And the most important thing is that you shouldn't take it for granted. Like getting a fever, its a sign of something going wrong. So its best if you face it and see what you can do for it.

Clean your room. Take a shower. Change into a fresh set of clothes. Play some music. Turn your phone off. Sing to your favourite songs. Watch your favourite TV show. Read a book. Spend time with your pet(s), if you have any. Take a nap. Reset your mind. If the problem persists, perhaps it's because you're avoiding something. Come up with a plan. Face your problems head-on. You can do it. Don't let yourself wallow in your tears. Your feelings will only fester and make you feel worse. Try talking about them, if you want to, or write them down.

To start, just started small and be nice to yourself. Taking care of yourself is the number one healer. It takes time of course but pacing yourself and doing things you enjoy and even just small things that will heal your mind and body will help you.

Ask yourself a question. Is the reason for crying so important and worth than my smile? Willingness to be happy can overpower any cry. Crying is natural. That's the first emotion you have experienced after coming out of your mother's womb. Don't judge yourself for crying. But don't the reason become bigger than your happiness. Talk to someone, share it with your favourite friend, relative or to unknown. My previous work place was a hell. Everybody there was trying to bully me, playing politics. I was very naive in that and it used to trouble me a lot. I have gone through sleepless nights, swollen eyes, dehydration and ulcers due to this. But then one day I felt this should stop. I will list down all small reason of my cry. I did that and then I worked on striking each one of it. It worked. It took me only 1 day to strike through first reason and I started becoming more and more powerful. I felt empowered. I felt pure. I felt happy. Now I will never cry till something happens bigger than that. You need to set benchmarks for yourself and think highly of you!

Lean into the sadness. Feel it all. Let yourself cry and be sad- it's so important. It's beautiful. You don't need to do anything about the constant crying just yet. Once you've let yourself feel, try to work through it. There's usually a reason, and I find that finding the reason will help dramatically. I feel that once I realize why I'm in so much despair that the crying gets less frequent. If you already know why, first, talk to someone. Get it off your chest. Whether it's a friend, family, teacher, coworker, an anonymous internet chat, whatever. It'll get better. But you have to feel it all, first.

Oh, honey. I have been there and have done that. I did that and then just went numb. I went numb then resulted to trying to cut. Being numb was such a scary feeling but was relieving at the same moment. I even took out a certain amount of pieces of paper for each family member and began to write apology notes for why I am about to slit my own wrists. Do you feel sad or just feel like crying? I journal down my thoughts which I believe helps. Coloring with music helps me as well. Have you tried discovering if there is certain thoughts are making you feel bad or are just feeling crappy? I recommend grabby a journal and just writing and letting words flow or doodles come out. Put on a film or talk with a family member. I’m not sure if you have history of depression but I sure as hell do and I almost gave up that night. I didn’t and actually just talked to one of my brothers about my recent episode. I actually learned that he goes to therapy for his depression. Crazy, huh? Just know your never alone in this kind of battle.

You should find something to make you change your thought process. Meditating and hard physical exercise will help immensely with this. Try not to focus on what is making you sad think about things that make you happy. Talk to people, sometimes just talking to someone will make you feel better and help you to stop crying. Don't be ashamed if you do cry its not something to be ashamed about, people cry if they are feeling sad about something, it is normal, especially if you are going through something severely distressing. And lastly keep a smile on your face even if you don't feel like it, it has been proven that if you smile it will naturally make you feel better inside. So try to stay happy and smile.

It seems you are feeling upset or experiencing emotional distress. Perhaps you should think about why you are feeling this way and the reasons for why you cry.

It is okay to cry but when it's too much, you could consider putting your energy into something good and that helps other people. Let your feelings out using a journal whether that's writing things down or even destroying it.
