Is crying good or bad? - Comments

you need to have a good cry every now and then. My mom doesn't cry much and because of it when she does cry. She can cry for days. Dont bottle it up. You can always talk to me. I no how you feel. Maybe not 100 percent but a good bit

I agree... They don't help much. I suppose it's beer than nothing though.

Having close and strong relationships with your parents help loads.

Crying is a psychological way to release stress. When things are bottled up, the body goes to unhealthy extremes. I had a friend who went through a rough childhood and never spoke to anyone about it, instead burying it all deep down in a strong denial. As a result, she still goes through periods where, for several days at a time, she can't eat anything without puking. Vomiting is a natural defense to get bad things out of your body. When you keep horrible emotions in for too long, your body will resort to desperately trying to purge everything like that.

So, yes, crying is an excellent way to keep the pressure down and to keep yourself physically healthy.

@Odette, I do see a shrink. every other week. :/ she doesn't really help though.
@Airi-chan, you do have a very good point. :] thanx

Crying is good. You don't have to cry all the time, I only cry when I'm extremely mad or extremely upset. Otherwise I try not to. It doesn't mean it's a weakness, it's just a healthy way to let out emotions.

I think crying is good. It's not good to hold in your emotions, and crying can help a lot of people feel better.

It's good. But if it is too much and all the time, you need to see a councelor
