How often do you cry?

Probably two times a week? I don't know, it's usually brief and it's out of frustration. BUT I rarely cry when watching movies, plays, TV, or reading books. The tears come from real life problems.

Not much.

I don't think I have ever in my life cried at TV or a movie.

I'm not really a crier.

If someone asks me something about my mother I will start crying. If I am just talking about her I won't but if it's something to do with her death the waterworks start again. It's only for a couple of seconds thank goodness.

I used to cry more but after taking Prozac for situational depression, I don't cry near as often. I did cry last Friday when I had to help a foster kitten cross the Rainbow Bridge (it had FIP). Even though she wasn't technically mine, it tore my heart to have to do that. I wasn't even embarrassed about crying in front of the vet and vet tech.

My thyroid is completely out of wack right now, so multiple times every day for me. While listening to podcasts or watching TV or reading the news or even reading posts on 2peas. It's pretty redonkulous.

When my thyroid is under control it's usually once or twice a week.

I'm a crier but pretty much any emotion that I feel strongly will create tears... Anger frustration, anxiety. I cry about once a week on average and for me it is very cathartic. Almost like a pressure release. I feel so much better after. But I rarely cry at TV or movies. I have a hard time getting wrapped up in stories that aren't real. I also don't cry when thinking or speaking about people who have passed like my parents. I miss them, but have fond memories of them and prefer to talk about the joyous memories.

My sister, however, cries at the drop of a hat. TV, movies, commercials, the mere mention of a long passed parent.

I'm not a crier. I get teary at movies but that's about it. Deaths obviously make me cry. ETA: When we had to put our sweet boy, Kellie, down in 2012; DH, DS and I cried for days.

i cry a lot. i cry when angry, stressed or emotional/sad. i cry when talking about things that are emotional or sad. i cry at commercials and movies....

DS didn't want me to see moana with his class last year because he was worried i would cry in front of his classmates. sure enough, wasn't the preview that damn movie about the dog who dies and then comes back to life several times to different people til he hooks up with the man who owned him as a kid (cried, just from the preview).

it is my least favourite quality about myself. i can cry at a stranger's funeral. i remember mentioning it to a colleague that it was embarrassing and he said his twin sister is the same. then he said something that struck me... he said "don't ever feel badly about crying, it means you care and you have room in your heart for others and their pain. this world would be a better place if more people cried".

and i feel differently about it now. i did take half a xanax at DS's elementary graduation last year, just so he wouldn't be embarrassed.

Almost never. The last time I cried was when my Dad died in 2004.

It changes and depends on life itself. Right now, I have had a few years or more when I've probably only cried a few times a year. (Well, crying because of real life. If we count crying because of TV, then my answer is totally different.)

But I've had times in my life when I was crying multiple times a day.

And I've had many other times when I would have given many other answers in between those two as well.

I'd say from a few times a week to everyday.  I am extra emotional and can cry very easily (unless it was when I was on Zoloft, I couldn't cry)

I wasn't a crier until DD was born. Almost 15 years later, I still cry all the freakin' time. Not big cries - but I get teary at movies, TV shows, songs...anything sad, happy, or intense. I also tear up when DD performs or when I get angry.

My last real cry was during a sermon,. The priest was recalling a tent meeting the church had in 2002, and she then she talked about experiences with Hurricane Katrina the next week. For me, the tent meeting was where I got the call that my grandmother had passed away, and Katrina and the months following were a particularly hard time (the hardest) in my life. I still have trouble talking about those months without tearing up, so that one at least makes sense!

cried over someone? 7 years ago when my mom died.

cried over something else? earlier this year. it was over a cheesy movie ending. i was more teary than crying.

I would say at first thought that I cry a couple times a month. Lately it's been more because of our recent move and some extraordinary drama and stress that occurred with that. I do tear up at the movies, sometimes (rarely) with tv. I can cry out of happiness, anger, anxiety, sadness, depression. I guess that makes me a crier.
