I was brought up with the mentality that crying is a waste of time and energy. I've only cried a handful of times in my life. Once when i was 10, and once recently when my friend was diagnosed with MS. That was through shock though.

I still get sad - i still feel pain [although since my back trouble my pain threshold is through the roof - i nearly cut my thumb off a few months back and i laughed and didnt bother going to hospital untill i nearly passed out from blood loss.] but i just dont cry.

I dont know weather thats a good thing or not.
LIP Reviewed by LIP on . What makes you cry? I dont make what Im feeling a mystery, if Im happy, you will know it. If Im pissed, trust, Ill let you know. If Im sad, i usually hide it behind a stoic expression and vague responses.. I cant cry in front of people, with all the shit thats happened to me, I've learned to control how much emotion I let out.. most of the time if i feel the need to cry, you will see one tear.. not a word or even a sob. I've mastered the art of swallowing my tears so to speak. Yet i can also cry on command, which Rating: 5
