I'm not here to tell you what to think or do, but to give you as much honest, accurate information as possible. If I don't know an answer to a specific question, I'll research it before replying. I won't sugarcoat things; my job is to tell it like it is.

I've got a particular interest in sexual health and sexuality. I know a lot about fertility and pregnancy - and firsthand now, as I've just had twins. I'm also an accredited sexual health worker.

What is something i can do to calm down. I am so worked up about everything all i can do is cry. Is there something else i can do besides cry?
please help me (link)
Maybe you just need to cry. Tears are our body's way of trying to tell us something - they can express frustration, sadness, anxiety, anger. Sometimes the more you try to fight tears and your body, the more likely you are to cry!

The next time you feel you need a weep, try going into a private space like your bedroom where you can be as sad and melodramatic as you want. Really let all those feelings hang out and express themselves.

You might be surprised at how this affects your need to cry. And when you start feeling more in tune with yourself, you might try activities to help balance you out and further strengthen positive things - pampering yourself, writing, meditation, art, friends, sports. These will also help you shed anxiety and stress, which will also have an affect on the tears.

Best of luck.
