Rarely, though I use Johnson & Johnson No More Tears Shampoo so maybe that's why

I used to cry at the slightest thing. Since taking testosterone I no longer cry, even if I really need to.

Quite often, yes. But not as much as I used to. I'm happier these days.

Nooooooo. not exactly.

last time I cried was...........hmm. oh. right.

Okay. so I actually cried this summer at work. I had a headache in the morning, so I took three pills for the headache, which the secretary gave to me. I was fine until the afternoon after lunch when I started having sneezing fits, so the secretary gave me two more of something else. I was fine......for about half an hour. After that it all went to hell in a handbasket. I couldn't think straight for some reason and I was having trouble concentrating. I think those working on the back dock noticed it, as well, cause I think someone sugguested that I go tell the boss. I didn't really want to, since I wanted a full days work since the next day would be my last day for ten days as I head off to a mission. (oh and I work at a moving werehhouse, where I happen to be on dock duty 5 days a week, usually building storage crates) so anyhow. I'm sitting on the back deck, waiting for the fork lift to come back to begin the next round of crate building, and its sunny and warm. so I doze off for like five minutes or so, the lift comes back and the back dock manager/boss type person comes back, and I tell him about my not feeling well. this guy is not exactly sympathetic, but allows me to go back and talk to the boss. By this time, my composure is slipping and I'm feeling nausious and out of of it. The boss, secretary, and assissant secretary notice and tell me to go home, and sleep, I try and say that I'm fine, but they order me to go home. so by this time, I'm visiablly letting go with tears, so I walk out, and let the back dock manager know. He tells me to go home. I call my aunt and uncle, since I'm staying with them while my parents are out of town, (thankfully I called them before hand). I go back to their place and sleep for two hours and feel much better. Everyone things I may have OD'd on whatever I took since it was about 4 hours difference on the three to the two. and these were extremly heavy handed heavy duty stuff. My dad was very pissed that night when I talked to him because of the fact that I did something that stupid. and I learned after that.

yeah. sorry for the long story.

I weep, for about 2 seconds. But I don't think it counts as crying.
For whoever thats crying right at this moment, SUCK IT UP. :shameonyou:

Let it out. It's good for you, and it's nothing to be ashamed of.

I almost cried 2 minutes ago, while watching episode 26 of Azumanga Daioh.
Before that, the last time I cried was friday because my brother made me cancel my holiday plans. DAMN HIM!! !! :evil:

I used to cry a great deal up to the age of 19 or so. Now I'm a much calmer and easy-going person, I guess, but I'm just as easily touched so I still cry a lot.

But I've noticed that now I'm far less likely to cry because I feel insulted or hurt by something somebody said - I just don't take offense as easily as I used to, and I've come to like criticism because it lets me decide what to change about myself. On the other hand, I'm more likely to cry with joy or because I'm moved, for example, by beauty or when talking about something that's significant to me. The other day I bawled when talking with a good friend about my Grandpa - not because I was sad, but because I was glad and grateful to have had such a great person in my life.

I answered the poll earlier, but I guess I'll answer in message form now. I haven't actually cried in a VERY long time, like 30 years. I haven't weeped in pretty long time, Perhaps 20 years ,either. I recently hurt my leg. There was pain, emotional upset, worry about the future that could extend for many months, yet I didn't shed a tear.

I would actually have a hard time trying to cry, although I guess I could think back to ONE poin't in my life that caused me to weep heavily. I was a kid, and BORED, and read the label on the container for hair coloring my mother had. When it spoke of eye iritation, it was like my eyes had a mind of their own, and started weeping.

Sure, until you get accused of being an attention seeker, are known as a crybaby and can't go anywhere without people mocking (imitating) you.

I wish i couldn't cry, it would make my life so much easier. I cry a LOT, not so much now, but that's because i rarely leave the house. When i was younger, i think i used it as a coping mechanism (even if it did make things worse) whenever something was happening that i couldn't understand, i would also start if something surprised or frightened me, when i was in P2 the teacher was shouting at some boy in class and i just burst into tears, i have no control over it, she then proceeded to shout at me, which didn't help.

Nowadays, usually when i cry it's because i am having a panic attack, that or it triggers one, not sure.

The last time I cried I believe was when my dog died.

Other than that, my eyes tear up when I go into certain rage fits. I haven't had that happen in some time though.

I can't remember ever just crying out of random emotional or physical pain since I was a child.

We Vulcans do not cry, it would be illogical. :neutral:

Grrrr, just had to add "Vulcans" and "Grrrr" to Firefox's custom dictionary (see biggest pet peeves thread).
