It's the way I get nerves out if I'm negatively nervous or scared, and I'm always worried that people think I'm a crybaby.

I wish I cried less, but I still always end up crying when I'm upset, even if I try to tell myself not to and get angry with myself (that makes me cry more haha).

I'm the same way, except that I'm finally starting to get better. Maybe the horrible teenage hormones start to calm down at my age and that's what was causing my sensitivity.

I cry a lot, and in "inappropriate situations". Meds reduced it a bit.

I don't mind crying alone but around other people it is embarrassing, because I cry really hard and always end up covered in snot and tears or even on furniture or the floor, wherever I'm at. Maybe I should just have tissues with me at all times, but I don't think like that when it happens.

What's weird about me is that I never cry when I'm alone. I only do it when I'm around people. It's like I only do embarrassing things when there are people around.

I don't think I've cried in the presence of another person since my grandfather died in 2003.

I cry more than I used to - it helps.
Keeping all the emotions bottled up isn't good.
