When was the last time you cried and why?

[JamSandle]

About 30 mins ago over a past relationship.

You?

Earlier today when a friend confirmed her husband's brain tumour will be rapidly terminal.

Before that, it was yesterday at a film.

I'm a blubber.

A couple of days ago, I was singing along to a KT Tunstall song and it suddenly reminded me of my mum who passed away in her fifties. Don't know why but my own voice sounded a bit like hers I think and I cried

I'm not a crier, but my DP is bereaved today and I have cried several times.

Earlier this evening because I wanted some toast but I was too tired to make toast.

Which I understand is pathetic. Really though it was my first day back at work and I only have barely enough energy to get through the day and then collapse in a heap. Which is shit.

DH made some toast. Sadly he can't fix the chronic exhaustion.

Last week, Pink’s ‘When I Get There’ came up on Spotify. She wrote it about her Dad dying, and I lost mine last year.

Good to limit your association with a shit stirrer who likes to upset you.

Mine was last week when for some reason we were talking about child evacuees during WW2 and I started sobbing at the idea of all those parents waving their children goodbye.

I cried last week. Bit overwhelmed with parenthood and anxiety

This morning, was reading the thread about historical/past deaths

A few hours ago. I was watching all kinds of stuff on yt when a video of a school choir sang a song to one of their teachers who had been diagnosed with cancer. Very emotional.

Earlier on today at the news article of the lady who called the police on her son who had just murdered someone.

Not at all a frequent cryer but about four weekends ago when my son was being difficult and horrible. Felt so stressed and cried. Before that Christmas Day, again related to my son. It builds up from the stress over weeks/months and then comes bursting out!

Today. Ordering flowers for my brother’s grave.

This afternoon at work, a song came on my playlist that’s about losing your grandmother, and a particular line just made my eyes all wet.

Grief is love with nowhere to go.

Last week because I still really miss my dog who died last year.

I woke Monday crying from yet another triggering dream. Ptsd is back.. yay

Saturday night watching Homeward Bound when Shadow limps out of the bushes 😭

Cried properly? A year ago at DH's funeral.

I have needed to cry many times since but it never comes.

A little while ago reading the “historical deaths” thread.

This afternoon. My partner committed suicide 16 months ago. Still takes my breath away. Gone too soon.

Now, thinking about my life

Yesterday while piano playing, was all good then it suddenly occurred to me to try runaway train by soul asylum. Totally caught me out.

When I found out my abusive stepfather had died in his 90s a few weeks back. It wasn't through sadness though, not even relief, it was so wierd to feel nothing but everything at the same time.

When I heard the news that Paul O'Grady had died.

About two weeks ago. Watching the story on the news about the headteacher whose life was saved by a recently installed defibrillator. It was put in after a visit and presentation by the wonderful Mark King, whose son Oliver died when his heart stopped in a swimming lesson in 2011. Mr King has spent the last 11 years getting the machines put into schools after 12 year old Oliver died at school.

This afternoon when I was reading a book.
