Yes, crying is a good way to deal with certain emotions and can lift burdens from you if needed. Crying is often underestimated. But by truth it is a good way to heal lots of wounds.

In my experience, personally, bottling things up that upset or hurt me breeds resentment and more sadness. Crying and letting it out cleanses me in a way, it lets all that pent up emotion flow out without feeling like I have to conform to someone's idea of being perfect emotionally/happy. after a good cry, I always feel better!

Yes, it's perfectly normal. It's even beneficial to cry. Simply crying and letting out all the built-up pressure can help a great deal to reduce stress. It's not weak, not is it cowardly to cry. Sometimes crying is also important in order that all the frustration leaves your mind. Take care. :)

It's very normal to cry and let it all out. Sometimes, it even helps you feel better. I remember when my grandfather passed away, I didn't cry. I didn't cry about it for a good two or three years, it just took that long for everything to build up so much that I couldn't take it. If you're upset, and you can feel yourself holding back tears, don't be scared to just them all out, you'll feel better once you have.

It is. And it's one of the best thing you can do to help yourself sort things out. If you always shut your emotions down, you will be faced with so much stress and you won't be able to focus on things that are truly important. Let it all out once in a while, or even any time you need to. You will feel much better and it'll be easier to move on.

It is absolutely normal!! I used to be really afraid of showing emotion and would never cry in front of people, even my parents. The older I've gotten, the more I realize that there's nothing to be ashamed of! Crying is a perfectly normal part of life and is healthy for expressing emotion. Don't be afriad to let people see you with your guard down!

Its normal. Holding it in just leads to a bigger explosion in the end. Crying just means you've been strong for a little too long and personally, I think its much better than feeling numb.

It is..in fact it's actually necessary to just let it all out because at the end of the day, we are mere humans..we have our limits, right? we cannot just keep on adding on our baggage and expect us to go a long way...we need to lose some of it. And if you think crying can help you..do it..flush it all out, it's not a weakness till it helps you to stay strong. There is a quote.. "cry as much as you want to, but make sure when you're finished, you never cry for the same reason again"

Yes, crying is definitely normal. I don't know about you, but crying makes me feel better because it helps release stress hormones or toxins.

Yes, a lot of people cry to relieve stress and pain. It works very effectively, I think the reason why is there's a hormone that's released in your brain after crying and makes you feel better.

Yes, this is completely normal. To not acknowledge our own feelings and give ourselves the care of validation would cause suffering. Don't deny pain and hold it in, avoid it, or use some distraction to cope with it. The pain will still be there and will manifest in some way triggered by an event or situation.
