I cry alot, not because I'm sad, but mostly when I get angry. I mean, if I only get the slightest bit mad, I start crying. It's so frickin' imbaracing! They always ask me..."but...what's wrong? Why are you crying ?".. they usually think I'm sad when I'm actually upset! But I almost never cry when I actually AM sad! WTF??? Howcome I start cryin' by the slightest bit of rage, but almost never when I'm actully feeling depressed or down? What's wrong with me? Some sort of hormonal imbalance? I don't think it has anything to do because I'm a teenager, since I'm already fully developed. So--what's my problem??
Probably a feeling of being overwhelmed and not knowing how to cope......Crying sort of remedies it, because it brings action of a sort...
Hmm, sounds more like depression than "hormones." Maybe talk to your mom or dad about seeing someone to help you out.
No,no,no! I'm not depressed, I'm a happy person 96% of the time!(The last time I got extreme rage was two years ago, the last time I was really depressed was three-quorters of a year ago...), because I have a very easy-going nature, and I easily put stuff behind me. It's just that in those cases where I actually get a tiny bit mad...I CRY! Just a smickle bit, and I cry! But whenever I'm sad...I never cry! I didn't even cry When someone I knew died! It's strange...why the hell is it turned around???? Thanks anyways!
hmm..I used do the same exact thing. Especially with my parents when I was younger. It was so frusterating, because there is no way to get your point across or be taken seriously when you are sobbing....but I couldn't help it. It isn't like that for me anymore, except maybe around my time of the month
I cant say I get mad at alot of things..... but I do get mad at my father quite often (he is a jerk) and when we argue I burst into tears......never fails. I hate it too because then it looks as if he has made me sad, but that isnt it. I just get so frustrated with things. Frustration can be quite overwhelming. I agree with strawpuppy. Crying is a good release of emotion. It is healthy to cry. I dont think there is anything wrong with you sweetie
It probably means that you're more in touch with your emotions. I mean, why keep them bottled inside, right? Btw, I often (if not always) start to cry when my dad (who I absolutely cannot stand) & I argue about stupid stuff, so you're not alone, k?
I cry when I get into serious fights too... fortunately my mom and i haven't battled in a few years. It probably is hormonal, and linked to you being a teenager (you may be fully developed physically, but there's still a lot of maturing going on in your brain whether you realize it or not). I know only a couple years ago I'd cry every now and then for no real reason. I went on vacation way back in grade 9, and when I got home, I had to run upstairs because I just started crying for no reason - not because I got home or because I was sad to be back or anything logical like that. No reason behind it whatsoever! It's the trademark of being a teenager.
