How often do you cry?

Ever since I started my preparation my frequency of crying has increased a lot. I feel crying is an expression of emotion that is considered so 'unmanly'. Why the hell can't I cry in public, no one gives a fu*k seeing me smile but why crying is so taboo?

It's quite a coincidence that I am seeing this thread. Cried a good three times today. In a way, happy to know I am not alone in having these 'is it even worth it?' moments.

I cried for 15-20 min daily for around a month after May 30, 2022. I also thought about collecting tears in a bottle :D, although I didn't do that later.

@Tata- Even I remember crying multiple times during preparation. ItтАЩs okay to open floodgates of emotions once in a while. Crying leads to contentment. But just like with everything else, relying too much on crying can lead to loss of its therapeutic value. Most of the times, I feel its better to use the pain as fuel to hunt your goals.

Crying happens when we donтАЩt give expression to what we feel. Writing is a great tool to channelise those intricate emotions in a more productive way. ThereтАЩs no hard and fast rule. Cry when it becomes unbearable. At other times, be strong. Cheers.

Crying is cathartic, crying is cleansing. People don't want others to know this secret so they cry in the secrecy of their rooms  ;)
