How do I stop myself from crying for stupid reasons?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Welcome to fluther, @chiraag06. Not crying doesn’t necessarily mean you are a “stronger person.” Nothing wrong with being an emotional guy; don’t be hard on yourself for being the way you are. But I’ve cried very easily most of my life as well. If you feel like you are about to cry in a situation where you would rather not do so, you can try taking deep breaths from your diaphragm, to focus your attention somewhere other than your face, or you can try yawning, or just making the motion like you are yawning. It sounds strange, but I learned from a very early age that yawning can hold the tears back.
