Guys: Do you ever cry?

Someone somewhere somehow gave me the notion that it’s wussy for a man to cry.

Dunno about you, but sometimes I feel like crying, and I’m a 51yo man…

What do you think?

I definitely feel like crying. But I avoid it 'cos I feel like sobbing would wrack my whole body. It must be something cataclysmic I would cry about.

I’m usually not ashamed to cry. Crying is good. It helps you deal with things and communicates your feelings to others.

Negative emotions (sadness, fear, anger, disgust) also inform us of when something’s wrong. They are a rational response to what happens.

I wish we could get rid of ■■■■■■■■ attitudes like that women should be submissive homemakers and that men should be strong (emotionless) financial providers.

They do a disservice to too many people. I cry sometimes, most of the time I hold it back. It’s not healthy to always stop yourself. When you let the tears loose, you get some kind of equilibrium.

Sometimes I was watching a sad movie, and maybe it was just an excuse to do it, as I usually had other things I was dealing with too.

I hate antidepressants because I often can’t cry at all on them. I need the release.

When I watched the movie “Love and Mercy” about Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys, who has Sza, man the waterworks were really going. There’s totally nothing wring with that either.

I laugh mostly at things that i should feel sad over. Hopefully it’s just a symptom of the affliction.

I used to cry a lot before my psychosis and I cried even more when I was with psychosis. I had a lot of chest pain and felt down with emotions of people with aids, for example.

After I had my psychosis I never cried again, and I had a lot of reasons to. These days I simply don’t have many emotions…
