Hey readers,
I really struggle with my emotions at the best of times but there is one thing that I always find helpful when dealing with my emotions and that is to cry.
Before, I used to hate crying, as I felt so weak and a useless lump. However, my mindset has shifted as I got older and I came to the firm conclusion that I do enjoy a good old cry.
It might not come to any solutions on how to deal with the problem but the feeling of when you cry feels like a cleaning of my motions, which I think is good for me mentally.
A lot of the time when I cry it occurs when I have had a build-up of all the frustration and believe me and I get frustrated A LOT.
I am autistic and struggle with seeing the world in a non-autistic way, therefore I feel at times really angry and sad.
That is why it is also important for me to find an outlet to get the feelings out in the open so they don't get so overwhelming and interfere with my life too much.
Therefore, I appreciate it when I cry, it is my body and mind telling me to let go, just let it all out and to me, it feels like all the tension floating away.
The after-the feeling of crying is what I enjoy the most, that transition where I can think clearer. I might not have any power to sort out a problem, nevertheless, it helps make me think a bit more logically.
I see crying as a healthy way to manage my emotional response to a problem. we all cry whether we admit to it or not.
We should celebrate crying more and view crying as a natural reaction to situations when we feel sad.
Research has highlighted that crying actually has a chemical response in the fact that we reduce our manganese levels.
It has been found that when we cry the mineral manganese affects our mood and it is 30 times greater concentration in tears than in the blood serum.
Crying gives us more control as we are actually physically doing something to help ease the pain, acknowledging the feelings and in a sense has been a way to helps humans survive in life.
What are your views on crying? Love it or hate it? Look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comment section down below.

Ahh! I love a good cry, especially at TV shows. It does feel like some sort of release and I always feel better after if even if it is just at a TV show. x
ReplyDeleteOh I definitely need a good cry every now and then - I always feel so much better afterwards - such a good way to release emotions. #KCACOLS
ReplyDeleteI always feel so much better for crying. I'm also autistic and I cry when I'm frustrated or angry, it feels like I've been holding my breath for ages and then when after a cry I feel like I can breath again.

I couldn't agree more with what you have said here. The releasing of emotions and clarity after a good cry is something I always find to be beneficial. Thanks so much for linking up at #KCACOLS.
