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

When we are in pain, sometimes our body reacts to it by crying. You have to understand what is triggering you, what is causing you pain and try to work on that.

Talk to someone. I think that talking through the problem will help you organize your thoughts. But also don't worry about crying. If you are crying you need those things to leave you and you might feel better about it later.

when we face a problem in our lives we tend to feel all sorts of emotions like sadness, anger etc.. but sometimes we have to take a step back and know what the problem is, then begin to see how you could fix it, whether that be coming here on 7 cups, or talking to a professional or whatever it may be that you need. if there's a problem there's ALWAYS a solution, even though it may not feel that way at first.

Sometimes crying helps us reduce the emotions that we are feeling but if it continues then probably there is something wrong inside and you need someone to reach it out. I think talking to someone might help.

In this situation, I usually watch video content which has a good chance of making me laugh. Usually cat or dog fails, hilarious Vines and stuff like that on YouTube.

There's nothing wrong with that, it's perfectly okay, let it all out of your system. Eventually there won't be any tears left and you'll feel better

If you can't stop crying for days on end, you can try talking your feelings out with someone you trust to see why it had left you in deep sorrow right now and reaching out may ease the tension on you a bit.

Take a deep breath. Try and figure out why you think you're sad, see if you can address the issue. In the meantime, do something you enjoy!

maybe try talking to someone, crying will help if ur hurting but talking will help even more, talk to a close friend or family member if ur hurting and it may help a bit more

An important thing to remember is embracing emotions is one of the best things you can do in my opinion. I don't mean letting them take over you but to just sit and feel the emotion whether its sadness or anger or even fear. To think 'why am I feeling this? What's causing this feeling?' If however your emotions are getting a little out of control or stopping you from doing day to day tasks it may be time to look into a profession counsellor/psychologist or a visit to the doctor may also be a good idea as there could be a medical reason such as a hormone imbalance.

Soul search and write out what's causing the emotional response. Identify what the cause is, then seek counseling or support if you are unsure about how to handle it from there.

Try and talk to a parent or someone to see if you have depression and to get the right treatment needed

Take professional help.Spend time in nature.Do what you like in your leisure time.Try no to overthink about what is bothering you.

Go out and eat food makes people happy .No really! You are better than this . Know your worth!!

Think about the small things in life that make you happy. The small things to be grateful for. Sometimes the small things can mean the most.

You should talk with a counsellor or maybe, just talk with your friends. If it lasts for a long time, it’s better if you talk with a therapist.

Have you thought of sharing your problems and troubles with someone you trust or here at 7Cups? Please do that! You'll feel less burdened and we can help you when we know the reason why you're crying.

I’ve had a few moments in life where I couldn’t stop crying. One of the best things to do to start feeling better is to first address the issue. Try to find the cause of the tears. Then, I would try to see if the problem is something I can fix myself or if it’s something that is out of my hand. If I see it’s something that I will be able to fix, I work on it until I can deal with it and I can stop crying. If it’s out of my hand I let my emotions out rather than suppressing them and find ways to accept the reality of the situation.

Just take a pen and paper and start writing whatever comes in mind. Open your heart and pour it in writing. If the emotional block is there you may get the outlet through the writing activity.

You can try to naturally try to cheer yourself up by doing things you like. Try getting those endorphins flowing through you by taking a walk, swinging on a swing, watching something funny, being outdoors, playing with a pet, etc. You can also talk to a psychiatrist about medications.

Talk to someone. If you know why, tell them. Make sure somebody knows about your situation so that they can comfort and help you.

Try to understand the trigger points like what time of the day , who the triggering person is, any memory which makes you feel like this. Once you are able to identify, you can seek more help to deal with the same.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Hey there. What you're going through right now could indicate towards severe depression or anxiety that is lying on dangerously high levels. You should know that very few things deserve you to waste your tears upon them. I won't chastise you for crying because you're expressing emotions in the only way you're able to, and it's better than keeping them in. But do remember that all this crying won't just fix the problem. If, deep down, you know it can't be fixed, which is rare, then try moving on.. However, only resort to that if you've already tried your BEST to solve it. And if you find yourself crying suddenly without an apparent reason, then try contacting the nearest specialist for more professional diagnosis.. Take care ^^
