emotions o.O
i find myself too emotional, crying at every cute or even vaughly sad thing i see. I CRIED AT THE END OF VEGGIE TALES (the one that talks about not to be selfish) WHEN THE LITTLE ASPARAGUS CAME BACK FROM THE WAR!!!! how do i STOP this madness? this is affecting the friendships i have because i don't want them to know of my over emotional-ness. so i stay away from them. i've tried to hold my tears back but it doesn't seem to work! i've tried converting my sadness (if i'm crying because its sad) to anger or even happiness but i DOESNT WORK. how do i stop the endless flow of stupid stupid tears????

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
You shouldn't be ashamed. That is a characteristic of who you are. If your friends don't appreciate that..then they aren't even worth your time! Do not convert your tears to anger..it is much safer to be crying then to be fighting. one piece of advice-stay active, excerise, and eat healthy..that always helps to keep a smile on my face!

First of all, there is nothing wrong with you. Being emotional is not a crime or a sickness and there's nothing for you to feel ashamed of. If your are crying because the things you see or hear or feel, move you then let it flow. Any person who truly cares about you will accept that as a part of your personality and you being a crier should have no affect on your friendships.
From your example above (veggie tales) it doesn't sound as if you're crying out of sadness, it sounds as if you cry because you are a sensitive and caring person who just shows their emotion more openly than most. Be proud of your ability to show compassion. Use your high levels of compassion to get involved, convert it into productive actions not different emotions. I can almost guarantee you that if you redirect all of that emotion into something that makes you feel as if you've made a difference,you may just stop crying all the time.
But if you really feel as if this crying is coming from sadness and you are ovewhelmed oryou find that it effects your ability to function in your life then speak to a parent, or friend about finding a counselor who can help you deal with this problem. Good Luck, let me know how things turn out.

DEAR CANT STOP CRYING
YOU KNOW IF YOU CRY, YOU CRY IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT OTHER PEOPLE SAY. IN MY OPPINION YOU SHOULD JUST LET THOSE TEARS FLOW BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT YOU DO YOU CAN'T HELP IT. I DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE MEDICINE TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.

This could be a disease, and if i were you, i'd go to the doctor right away. if it's not a disease, your doctor can still help by giving you advice or the number of a physcharist.

First off, it might be clinical depression, perhaps set off my a chemical imbalance in your brain. No one wants to hear that though. If there's nothing to really cause your crying, I would see if there are pills you can take, like prozak, etc. I went through the exact same thing a few years ago. I didn't take any pills though. I would go to bed at around 8 (I usually stay up until around 4 am) just so no one would see me. The theme song to friends made me cry. Stupid stuff like that. It was a combination of all sorts of stress that caused this for me. I would stay away from anything sad. I would watch a lot of comedies, and if you do feel sad, go somewhere were you can let it all out, don't hold it in. I hung around my closest friends more, and discussed this with my best friend, that helped a lot. I'd also try getting too busy to think about it. I had two jobs and was going to school. When I wasn't doing this I was with friends or sleeping. I didn't have time to dwell on all of my problems. I hope you feel better.
