Either my emotions are unusually intense, or I'm especially sensitive to them. I'm not even sure there's a difference. I cry when I'm overwhelmed. I try to avoid doing it in public because I don't want people to ask me what's wrong. If I can't help it and I'm in a public situation, I leave for a while to be by myself.

I don't dislike crying; it's cathartic and makes me feel better.

I don't understand why it's a social norm for men not to cry. Isn't it rather unhealthy to deny yourself that outlet if you feel the need to use it?
