Wonder why the hell some people can cry out loud so easily but some people can't?
Okay, here's something that I strongly need to emphasize. Im not being negative now. Its just that sometimes when you are facing loss, pressure or whatever reasons that make you wanna cry, some people can just do it easily.
As for me, it has been a long long long long long time since I last flood myself with tears. Freshman year back in Poly I guess? Oh wait, isn't that a little too long? 5 years?! I haven't been crying for 5 years?!
Here's a research showing that crying is actually good for health- mentally.
Researchers have proven what many caregivers have already figured out on their own: sometimes there’s nothing like a good cry to make you feel better. Crying is cathartic.
Neuroscientist and tear researcher Dr. William H. Frey II, PhD, director of the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota, studies the affects of crying. He’s spent over 15 years studying crying and tears.
Research shows:
- 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men felt less sad and angry after crying
- On average, women cry 47 times a year, men cry 7 times a year
- Crying bouts last 6 minutes on average
- Tears are more often shed between 7 and 10 p.m.
According to Frey, “crying is not only a human response to sorrow and frustration, it’s a healthy one. Crying is a natural way to reduce emotional stress that, left unchecked, has negative physical affects on the body, including increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and other stress-related disorders.

On average women cry 47 times a year? wow~ imagine I should be crying err.... 47 X 5 = 235times?!
The hardest thing I can ever deal with in my life, which I realised, is loneliness. if I feel really really lonely one day, I might flood the whole room.
