Anyone else feel better after a good cry?

For no reason at all... I just watched a video that should not have made me cry but I did. Thank God T was down for a nap so I didn't have to explain myself. I feel slightly better than I did before I cried....

Anyone ever just cry and feel better?  It's been one of those weeks, but a terrible day today for us.

The body physically releases stress hormones into the tears as they are leaving your eyes.  Thus, physiologically, crying makes us feel better, because we have fewer of those negative hormones in our system. 

I'm sorry you're having a rough week, though.

Most definitely.  It's such a release.  (hugs)  I hope your day and week both get a lot better, though!

Me too.  Sometimes it's like I can just feel the stress building and I know it HAS to come out sometime!
