I hadn’t cried in 7 years and decided to do some emotional exercises to make myself cry. So I managed to cry about 4 months ago, haven’t been able to since even with my grandmothers death. Might start trying again.

    My wife had covid, and was sick enough we worried about her surviving. Maybe too dramatic, but she was very sick and it scared us both.

    After she recovered there was a morning I opened the fridge and she had made me a sandwich to take to work. And it just came rising in to me that we were okay now, she was back.

    I cried hard.

    I’m one of these strange people who don’t cry even when feeling very upset, sad, or grieving… but at the same time, I sometimes cry when reading/watching a heartbreaking scene.

    A few weeks ago

    My son (4 months old) refused to sleep and was crying/screaming for like an hour

    Very frustrating, and I cried a mixture of sympathy tears and frustration tears

    The last time I cried not from my son was like 15 years ago

      3 to 6 months if such a bitter sweet age. On the one hand, it’s when they start turning in to little people and their personality starts emerging. But it’s also where it starts to get really hard. I’m not sure if it gets easier or you get better at dealing with it, but it gets better.

      We’re at 18 months and it’s a really fun and exciting age but I miss the little goofy baby. The last few months before they become mobile and tear your house to shreds are precious.

    About an hour ago. I have been suffering from severe depression and just need an outlet. It made me feel a bit better though.
