Why did you last cry and when?

[TheWhisker]

I cry a lot. I know it's not normal, but sometimes I get home from work and the stress and worry from the day makes me cry.

So, what was the last thing you cried at and when?

I'm so, so sorry.

Today. Because it would have been a good friends birthday but she died during the first lockdown. And because it’s Mother’s Day tomorrow and her 3 lovely kids have that to cope with too and because I miss my mum more than ever atm.

I cry a lot. I'm unhappy and can't find a way out.

Reading these. But also this morning watching the Find Michael doc about spencer matthews trying to locate and bring his brothers body home from Everest

sorry for everyone’s loss 💐

Thursday. I was laying on my bed, covered in my 5 children having a big family cuddle. It was so lovely, but it made me think of my oldest friend, who died 2 months ago. She has 2 young children, and they won't get to do that again, and she won't get to hold them and feel this overwhelm of love. This is their first Mother's day without her, and her Mum's first too, and my heart breaks all over again every time I think of the things she's going to miss out on.

Yesterday when Victim Support rang to say they are going to go and talk to DD (8) at school about DS (11) and the way he is aggressive to her.

Tonight. Feel heartbroken after my TFMR of my daughter last month. DH hasn’t acknowledged her in my Mother’s Day cards and I’m being unreasonable but I’ve just cried.

Yesterday, don't even know why, just felt really panicky and burst into tears.

You're not being unreasonable at all. You're still her mum and always will be - lots of love

In therapy, I feel like I’ve not had a successful therapy session if I didn’t cry… lol. Also I went through a phase of watching sad life drama movies possibly just to cry.

Now. Third mothers day without mum and thinking about her.

Yesterday. Because I miss DP who died and I realised I’d never sit at a pavement cafe in France with him ever again.

I feel for you, I really do. Mine died 3 years ago & the feeling/loss/grief has never felt any different. I know it's not the same for all - but my logic is now telling me that "time heals" is not always true in every case. The heartache & missing is just ever-present & huge. Doesn't mean joy isn't found or appreciated elsewhere... But yes, daily crying, wake-up crying, so many triggers/reminders - feels constant... Sending a hug

About 10 minutes ago . All the time really. Life is very difficult at the moment and I’m struggling.

A couple of weeks ago when DS2 (11 weeks) had been crying/fussing all day non stop and I was at the end of my rope.

The time before that was in the induction ward having him - at a cervical check from a (male) trainee doctor. I screamed and nearly shot through the ceiling I had to fell him to stop. I lay in my hospital bed crying my eyes out for about an hour afterwards. Had plenty of cervical checks before and since with the kids (including a LLETZ and multiple cervical biopsies) and they are sometimes a bit eye watering but nothing you can’t just breathe through. I have never known pain like that.

About five days ago when the vet told us that the lump that appeared on the dog might be cancer.

Cried this morning, really miss my mum and dad who died almost 3 years ago, 3 months apart. I used to speak to my mum at least twice a day so today really hurts.

A few days ago - I was listening to Kiss Me by Dermot Kennedy and felt overwhelmed by sadness - I had a completely unexpected heart attack a few weeks ago, despite not ticking a single box for risk factors, and it suddenly hit home how close I came to dying that day. I hadn’t cried about it at all until that point - just something about the lyrics that set me off!

This morning, tending to my brothers grave. He took his own life 5 weeks ago, still struggling to understand and come to terms with it. He was only 50 and loved dearly by all of us

Today actually. Before that not for AGES. Was playing a sad song on my guitar and it made me miss DM.

Yesterday, we lost one of our dogs earlier this year and yesterday would’ve been his birthday.

Sorry to all who are suffering.

January. I was giving blood and the radio in the background played something we had at dad's funeral. It was hard trying to choke back the tears in such a huge room.

This morning. DP was feeding our 19 month old when I came down from a lie in. He had lined up an old cassette tape and started playing mama by the spice girls. He didn’t realise that song makes me absolutely ugly cry as it came out not long after my nana passed away and I remember my mam crying to this song and it just breaks me every time I hear it. He was just trying to be funny and cute.

At the end of the Nazanin documentary when she was reunited with Gabriella.

Yes this week, just feeling overwhelmed, with bereavement and my disability. I am usually a very positive person, and rarely get upset.
