    So, how often do you usually cry? Do you cry often, often at music or movies or just no reason to release stress maybe or do you hardly ever cry? And how long currently since you have cried?

    I cried about 2 months ago. I don't remember why- I think just everything building up on each other it was just due but I don't remember the specific reason. But anyways I used to cry way more than I do now. But if I don't cry for like 3 or 4 months then I almost get scared to cry because I know what's coming... (although afterwards things are usually really good).

    anyways, was just wondering how most people are w this.

    I think the last time I cried I was around 10. So, what, 21 years ago?

    I just don't get that. I hear some people- usually guys- say stuff like that and I don't understand it really. I can get a year or so but that is extreme.

    I'd just imagine before 20 years either someone would die or get sick or i'd laugh so hard i'd cry, - who knows.. so many reasons for crying...

    but I do think for females it's different.
    and btw, there are a lot of health benefits of crying.

    Well, I've had people die in that time frame. I don't count eyes watering from laughing so hard.

    Not nearly often enough. It often takes me months to realize I'm sad.

    I have felt sad and have had a few moments (like when my Grandfather died, and when a buddy of mine from the Marines died) where I felt close, but I locked that shit down.

    idk, sometimes it's good to do that in some situations but other times it's not good at do that at all really. I wouldn't think because there tends to be (usually?) a building up of that eventually. kinda knowing when to just keep going and when it's good to relieve stress. shrug.

    Oh sometimes I totally ignore feeling sad without knowing it. For a while.

    Ehhh, I don't think it helps anything. Whatever issue that caused the crying is still going to be there when you're done crying.

    I cry a great deal, at almost every movie I watch.

    I cried tears of joy while listening to Beethoven's piano concerto no. 5 during a recent psychedelic experience.

    Well, you can think what you want and I'm not gonna say you're wrong but there ARE many known health benefits of crying.

    Sometimes I can get like that...

    and have had similar things happen to that....^^

    but really I just mostly cry to release stress and tension really at times and then I feel like a took a couple valium and I can keep dealing with everything. :)

    I generally feel much better, everything seems clearer after I've cried. I think I should do it more often, but I'm a guy, what can I say?

    Crying is for children and pussies.

    I cry sometimes in private like a little bitch, but for years I didn't cry at all. Sometimes I feel like I want to start crying when I am out in public, and that kind of sucks. I just get these waves of despair sometimes which are hard to control. I don't breakdown crying, but sometimes I feel like I want to.

    Or people with human emotions... but I wouldn't expect you to know anything about that.
