Why did I start crying the other night?
Question:
I've always been really sensitive when it came to animals dieing because everyone just throws them around like they're nothing, why does their life have any less value then ours? But anyway... I was sitting in my bed reading and a little bug came and sat on my shoulder, without thinking i just shook my shoulder and the bug flew onto my pillow so I flicked it trying to get it off and I accidentally smashed it. All of a sudden i went into this whole crying fit, it was 3 in the morning so no one heard me, but i was crying so hard my whole body was shaking so i sat on the floor and started rocking back and forth... I could stop crying. I finally went into the guest room and slept on that bed at around 5.
Does anyone know what happened?
Answers:
You may be suffering from depression. One of the symptoms is uncontrollable crying, even over small things. When I suffered from depression, I felt guilty even when I accidentally slammed a bug in the sliding glass door! And normally I really don't have much sympathy for six-legged creatures. It could be that due to your own sufferings, you are becoming more compassionate towards other living beings. While this is a good thing, you do not want to fall apart crying every time you kill a bug. This will make you have a difficult social and professional life. More than likely, your normally empathetic reaction was magnified by the depression. You may want to seek counseling so you can talk to an unbiased, insightful person who can help you.
maybe you were a bug in a previous life....

Sounds like you are under a lot of stress for a young person and often it can be the small things (straw that broke the camel's back) - that brings out the pain. Please seriously consider seeing a counsellor or therapist as talking about your issues is a good way to find some peace for yourself. I wish you the very best of happiness. You deserve it.
I don't know what happened exactly, but I can tell you that I will cry for no apparent reason at all sometimes. I think we, as women, have such touchy emotional sides, that the littlest things can set us off. I myself get very lonely, all the time, even when my roommate is home with me, I still feel lonely, and on those days, I don't think I need anything to start crying uncontrollably. I don't think anything is wrong with you at all. I think you just had one of those moments. But I can tell you a similar story. I had just learned to drive and decided to get myself some Mcdonalds. Well on the way home after getting the mcdonalds, a mom opposum ran in front of my car. I swirved to miss it, but still hit it. I stopped to see if it was okay, and naturally it wasn't. I cried for three days straight and couldn't even eat anything, even though all of my friends and family kept telling me that it was only an opposum and that I did everything that I could, I just couldn't stop feeling bad. I think sometimes we just innately feel bad when we accidently injure or hurt another living thing. You will be fine, just have faith and be strong, and know that everything will be ok. I hope this helped you!
I'm not sure, lady. But, perhaps it isn't the bug that caused it?
Relax, buddy. Is it something in your heart that you have pressure with? Are you sad deep down in your heart? Something you couldn't explain? Something you don't understand?
Think, dear, think. For a friend, email me any time, i am always ready to help.
I know how you feel. I have an eating disorder to. It really sucks and I am not the only one in my family who has gone through one and they all say that I will get over it but it has been 4 years. I think that animals should have just as many rights as us, I cry everytime I watch that show on animal planet called animal cops, I just break down and cry all day. I sometimes rock myself to because I feal as if that is my only control I have at the moment. I remember once there was this spider and I was trying to save it but instead I killed it, I felt so bad and I just hated myself for it. I know how you feel but then again I dont because everyone is different. I started being depressed in 5th grade and ever since then I have been on and off medication and have gained and lost weight, Life is tuff but it makes you stronger as a person if you can get through it so join me in the fight. I sometimes want to close my eyes and never have them open because life is just so stressful. I think that you should get a therapist, I have one and she is so nice, make sure if you get one that she is nice because I have had some therapists that have been mean. Hang in there, you will make it.
I don't know what happened..but I'm also like that all the times...maybe you are depressed...
You say nothing about age or other life circumstances, but you do have a lot going on. Your crying, along with the anorexia and cutting are all symptoms. I would seriously suggest finding someone to give you council, either a theropist or possibly a chuch pastor.
You mentioned only seeing your dad on weekends, so I would guess that possibly your parents may have recently split up and if that is the case, they may have not been happy for some time, something that you noticed. All of that will have a major impact on you and you need an outlet. My guess is your current outlet is your your anorexia and cutting (not to get too analytical you are probably trying to get the attention that you have been missing).
On top of all of that, you may also have a highly sensitive personnality. My wife is a highly sensitive person and that is a recognized state of being. Nothing right or wrong with it, it is just how some people are. It can not only be emotional, but also you could be sensitive to physical things such as sound or light, etc.
The last factor that can play into it are hormones. Take everything going on in your life and add a few hormones and they get magnified. The one thing I feel is that the crying is good.
Please find someone you can talk to and who can give you advice. You need more than just a friend to talk to. You may also need to talk with your parents and let them know what is happening. Also, if my assumption is correct about your parents splitting, they need to set aside their differences and pay attention to you. You may need someone to help you convey that to them (again it depends on your age and your relationship with your parents). Don't be afraid to find someone to confide in.
you should talk to someone about what you are going through
i don't know u just need a hug
well maybe u are very caring about animals so maybe u never killed a bug
