Crying infront of people
I hate being vulnerable. I hate feeling pitied. I hate when I cry infront of people and then they ask me "hey... how are you doing now?" every week with that voice like I'm a wounded puppy. It makes me wanna punch a wall. Even if I still feel like shit now I feel like I have something to prove. Like no, I've never been better ACTUALLY. It sucks cause I know they're just worried too.
It's not like I wasn't allowed to express my emotions when I was a kid so I don't know why I'm like this. Anyone else feel so strongly about this?
I also disliked crying in public but I don’t really mind being pitied. I was more scared people would think I’m emotional and overreacting. But then I realized I am emotional and sensitive so it’s not an overreaction. Be free

I am a self proclaimed old person and I am a crier.
I wasn't as a kid/teen but as soon as I was in a place to be a human in my 20s, the tears started coming with a vengeance.
I was horrified at myself - I even found myself crying when I was angry or really happy.
It got better when I accepted that crying was just a bodily reaction. Other people...... 2 reply
I feel the same. I've been crying a lot lately, like A LOT, and it's so out of character for me. I’m usually able to keep my emotions in check, but lately, I just can’t seem to hold it in like I used to.... It’s so embarrassing. Crying in front of my parents is especially the worst part because they’ll start saying things like, 'Ew, why you...... reply
Sometimes, it can be very liberating. All that pent up emotion has to be released. It's not good for people to hold it in.
Sometimes I go to public places, like bookstores that have coffee shops, and I put my headphones on and listen to sad music while I read or play games on my tablet. And I allow myself to cry.
Not full blown crying because th...... reply
Dude, about 2 weeks ago I started uncontrollably crying right in the middle of a workshop and I was SO FUCKING EMBARASSED. Because my work was the one being workshopped and ppl had a lot of critiques so it looked like I was crying because of the critiques BUT I SWEAR IT WASN'T, IT WAS BECAUSE I WAS SO RUDE TO EVERYONE THAT DAY AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHY...... 1 reply

I'm also the same I think, recently I cried just cuz it was my turn to read my work in front of the class ToT aahjdkfhk idk why but when it comes to something I made myself it makes me really nervous and embarrassed and if I don't feel like my work is good enough it's like my mouth completely refuses to read which makes everything worse and than my...... reply
im sensitive and im a crier alright. i hate crying infront of people cause it makes me feel vulnerable but tears come easily to me than words do. ive come to accept that part of myself and now i just cry freely in public but its still embarrassing tho. reply
I feel the same way tbh, I really hate showing those types of emotions out in public and to make matters worse, I am an extremely sensitive and emotional person which does not help while I'm being yelled at in public... I feel weak and pathetic when I cry, like I'm not supposed to be feeling that way. Some days I truly wish I could turn off my emot...... reply

Maybe because of my passionate hate of crying in front of anyone
