Is it acceptable to cry?

Greetings,

What a shame to find someone so unhappy. Crying every day has to be a sign of depression. There are ways and means of coping with it, and a doctor is the person to ask. On the plus side, though, depression is often said to be a sign of intelligence, so there you go.

On a related but slightly stranger note, in 18th century Britain, a "Cult of Sensibility" arose, where grown men would meet and cry together in public as a fashionable way of showing how emotional and sensitive they were. They were faking it, though, and our original poster is for real.

I hope the original poster will see that there is nothing wrong with asking for help. There is a supportive community behind you. :)

Good luck.

Peace

Let it out, even if that means crying. But try and confide your problems in someone. You won't be burdening them with your problems, but you'll have a friend who is always there for you.

Is it forbidden to cry? During the day in the office, I am comfortable and can laugh and hold conversations with people. As soon as I leave the office, I feel horrible and I cry myself home while driving. My evenings are silent. I feel pain under my ribs and all around my ribs just under my arms. I feel like I want to cry, but nothing is happening. Am I beyond messed up? Do I need a brick thrown at my head to snap out of it all? Am I so foolish? :cry:

I laugh so much and when I start I cant stop until Im keeling over with pain and can hardly breathe Lol, and then next thing you know Im crying for NO REASON AT ALL, OR am looking for an excuse to cry and more or less asking for people to make me cry Lol, its weird, but I think its just to make everything balanced Lol :shade::D

my opinion, not sure where i got it from but,

crying over things related to Dunyah is pointless, and i would say that should be stopped, or rather, be very limited...

crying out of fear/love for Allaah...that is definitely a good sign...and should be increased...

crying is perfectly normal... u dont feel ..the LIFE when u dont cry... crying of happiness... of sadness..or of laughter.. its all cool.




unless u crying bout a dead family member...that aint good...it sad..
 
Crying is normal and advised to let out your emotions-- however im with Glo on this one --- You need to check if there is no underlying issues -- whether thats a physical or a emotional check up.

I get the impression however you already know what it is thats making you cry however you may be in denial about how it is affecting you -- whatever the case is --- you must speak to someone preferably a professional such as a doctor/GP/counsellor.

And dont think you are weak for seeing one either -- it is actually your duty as a muslim to look after your health.
