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

Cry until you have cried about everything that makes you sad and then get up and move forward. Bottling things up is bad. When you need to cry, cry.

The best thing is to talk to someone you can trust. Someone who can support and understand you. Try looking for a friend or someone you are close to. If you are crying because of a certain thing that you find hard to talk to someone close to, talking to a stranger (such as a therapist) will most definitely help as well

Stop thinking negative things. Play the favorite songs and dance. Make me busier with work and cafe chat with friends

Often times, we face sad feelings due to personal choices or the actions of others. It's absolutely understandable to experience symptoms of anxiety and sadness when unexpected, sudden events happen in your life that cause grief such as a bereavement of a loved one. It is recommended that you reach out to support groups going through the same feelings you are going through so that you know you are not alone and from hearing others experiences you are able to develop that self-compassion for your situation. A 2011 case study found the average duration for crying was 8 minutes. To challenge the response to cry you can make changes through seeking support via psychotherapy, reading articles to condition yourself to breathe more through your nose and out through your mouth. Other devices that can be used is going out for a walk to change your immediate location, relaxing facial muscles, or thinking about something repetitious that you have remembered like a poem. It may also be relevant to note information down regarding what you feel in a journal if finding it difficult to articulate into words or hesitant to tell others.

Crying is a self-soothing response and, if you are crying for "days on end," then you likely need some self soothing. In the short term, to stop crying, try some of the following: 1. Take a deep breath. And then take another one. 2. Tilt your head up. When you do this, the tears won't roll down your face and will reabsorb back into your eyes. 3. Splash you face with ice cold water. Pinch yourself. Do something to physically shock yourself and draw your attention from crying. 4. Meditate. Let a guided meditation clear your mind. Then reach out for help. Chat with a listener at 7 cups. Call a friend. Consider reaching out to a health or mental health provider. If you are considering harming yourself in any manner, call National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-TALK (8255), which offers free, confidential, 24/7 support.

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!
