GTKY: When is the last time you cried?

tealowl · July 2013

Was it a happy cry or a sad cry?

The last time I cried was today. Twice. The first time was because I was going over my bills on my break and I'm overwelmed by the amount of them.

The second time was I was reading a magazine article interviewing Kenny Chesney, and he was talking about how he went to talk to the Sandy Hook kids/parents, and a Mom was telling him about how she used to sing, "No Shirt No Shoes No Problems' w/her child that died, and she wrote that lyric on her casket. I was sobbing at lunch w/that one.

I'm a crier. It doesn't take much for me. If I had a dollar for everytime s/o said, 'Babe, whyyyyy are you crying again??', I'd be Bumping from a yacht right now.

I did the ugly cry watching a movie last night. I cry a lot though: movies, books, sad commercials...

I got teary today watching the video of the rottweiler that got shot by the cops who were arresting his owner. I really wish I hadn't watched that.

I heard about that video today, thankfully it hasn't popped up on my FB feed. Did the dog die? I can't watch that stuff. I've never met a bad Rottie in my life =[.

Yes, and slowly. They didn't even try to end the suffering. It was awful. The dog was getting snappy with the officers, but there are SO MANY better ways to deal with a situation like that.

That's awful. I understand an officer needing to protect himself, but I've seen/heard so many instances where shooting a dog wasn't neccessary at all. Poor puppy. Snapping isn't attacking, if a Rottie wanted to attack, it would do more than snap!

jaytee16 · July 2013

I have spent a lot of time crying since last Wed. All sad cries

H's grandmother has stopped dialysis and it's just a matter of time now. I love that woman and it's been a really rough week. I randomly think about her or my MIL and start again.

I just started cycle 12. I did a lot of ugly crying yesterday.

TattooedLoisLane · July 2013

I sad cried today while trying to get an appointment with my obgyn. Its always a pain to get in, so it was nothing new.I've been pretty good about not getting all boo hoo ish, but its cd59 with no O in sight, and its already 16 months in! I'm just over it.

Peedy · July 2013

I was close to crying reading the second half of your GTKY. The last time I cried was this weekend, my CD3 blood work came back and my FSH is 10.4, apparently this is not great.

themrsJRD · July 2013

Sunday night, reading a book. ::sigh::

MrsM507 · July 2013

Yesterday... more than once. It wasn't pretty. (sad cry, IF dramaz) I'm NOT a big crier, which is good and bad at times.

I posted a quote in my blog yesterday that I love, "Crying doesn't indicate that you're weak. Since birth, it's always been a sign that you are alive!"

ky29 · July 2013

I cry a lot. Last time I cried was yesterday - I was a little over emotional. But I also cry a lot watching movies... even if I've seen it a hundred times. DH always makes fun of me.

I'm so sorry about your H's grandmother... and for cycle 12! ((hugs))

crwel1048 · July 2013

I was watching a Hallmark movie, "The Russell Girl", while I was PMSing over a week ago. I definitely cry at anything sappy or sad whether it's true or fiction.

BBer4 · July 2013

Pretty much all day today. It's cd1, the start of cycle 12 and I found out that the clinic I want to go to didn't even get my referral from my doctor. I've been waiting for weeks for a phone call that would have never come. I kind of feel like the universe it against me today.

Spookster · July 2013

Today reading my friend's blog. A couple salty tears leaked out.

It takes a lot for me to cry, I have been due for an ugly cry for a while but I just can't seem to let go. That probably has something to do with the fact I have control issues and do not like the feeling of being out of control. I also pretty stoic and have been the strong one in my family for oh my whole life, and I tend to keep it together for everyone else or chaos breaks out.

I pretty much cry daily, inside.

From what I understand the officers weren't even there to arrest that guy. Like, they came up to him because he was trying to record a video. FFS, if he's not a dangerous criminal give him a chance to secure his dog. Don't just shoot it... So sad and unnecessary.

I don't know if you mean teary eyed or full on crying, but I can't remember the last time I actually cried. I don't cry much.

I teared up when watching Mulan the other night, though.

This is a good GTKY!

Sunday when I got really frustrated about multiple things. It was kicked off by a "friend" be super sucktastic, followed up by ttc being a bit over-whelming right now.

beckynsean11 · July 2013

I'm a big cry baby. Saturday was my last cry. DH was really upset about his testosterone levels & it really hurt to see him so emasculated. I've also been fighting back tears for the last hour. I have to leave in a minute to go for my follow-up & I'm scared my Dr. won't want to try anything to clear my right side.

mandacann · July 2013

Sunday morning, I wanted breakfast at a diner we go to all the time and the parking lot was completely full and I just started ugly crying. Early PMS I guess, or maybe I just really wanted some friggin bacon without having to cook. Then it turned into embarrassed I was crying over bacon crying. I was a mess.

EmeJay · July 2013

Oh boy, I've had a lot of ugly crying in the last couple of days. The last one was when I called my mother to tell her about the mc. I didn't tell her yet about the pregnancy. She cried, which is the number one thing that makes me cry.

I'm a big cryer anyway. I cry all the time watching the news, during movies, while I read. I also cry when I laugh. I'm a mess and I only wear waterproof mascara!

Milagros315 · July 2013

I cry a lot, I guess. The last time was yesterday. I cried twice and they were both sad cries. Mostly just crying about TTC bulllshit. The never ending IUI vs. lap vs. no treatment debate has been really overwhelming.

Hooper88 · July 2013

I am a huge cry baby, it doesn't take much.

I cried yesterday. I lost one of my blue diamond earrings that my dad bought me a few years ago. They are not worth a whole lot but the sentimental value definitely out weighs the cost. Anyway, I put my hand to my ear and found it was missing and I started balling my eyes out. I was lucky enough to find it in my bed after an hour of crying and searching my house (I wasn't even sure I had lost it in my house, luckily I did!) I actually cried again when I found it because I was so happy.

Needless to say this morning I went to the jewelry repair store and got better backs to the earrings so they don't fall out anymore!

My guess is I cry AT LEAST once a week whether its for happy or sad reasons

Oh my gosh! I would have been balling my eyes out if I'd seen that. I'm tearing up just hearing about it! I cry every time I see something on the news or something totally fictional on tv or in a movie involving an animal dying. And a lot of times it's not just crying, it's a total meltdown.

mmb248 · July 2013

I'm really not a crier, but I've cried 3 times in the past 2 days.

Today, the emotions of IF thread on 3T had me teared up and few tears got out.
Last night, watching Nip/Tuck with DH when Gina let Christian feel the baby move. DH put his hand on my belly and said, "That'll be us one day without the crazy sex addiction." And I cried. Because, you know, what if it's not?
Sunday, while watching the episode of Who's the Boss when Sam gets a training bra, but Tony still thinks of her as his little girl/tomboy. That was my and my dad's favorite show to watch together when I was growing up. I've avoided it since he died 3 years ago, so for that particular episode to be the first I've seen since then made me ugly cry. DH called my mom because I couldn't make words and he freaked.

This is an all-too-familiar scenario for me.

mrs_tacos · July 2013

I also cry a lot. I have what my psychologist dad calls "empathy problems," i.e.: I empathize far too much with people, sometimes beyond what is healthy.

So I cried hard core yesterday while watching an episode of Scrubs where Carla is dealing with PPD. Every time she cried, I cried. It was ridiculous. I'm watching Mulan right now while I fold piles of laundry. I'll probably cry during this too.

The last time I cried for myself was on CD 1 cycle. It wasn't even a pity party thing, it was just hormones. Blah.

The need for bacon is serious business!

I'm so sorry, becky. DH struggling like that would make me cry too. GL at your appointment!

I'm not a big crier.

I do volunteer photography at hospitals through an organization for parents who have lost their babies. I go in and take portraits for them of their baby to keep so that they have something to remember.

I always hold it together at the session. Always. I empathize with the parents, tell them how beautiful their baby is no matter how badly their skin may be torn or other defects they may have.

And then I go home and edit those pictures and really have to see those precious fingers and toes and soak in what those parents have lost... It's overwhelming sometimes. But that's when I cry.

And crying on the inside makes me sad too, I'm sorry.

I need to update my answer. I'm definitely tearing up now. What an amazing thing you do for parents who just lost so much!

elizabethb3 · July 2013

I'm definitely a crier. I'm sure it wasn't the last time I cried, but I sobbed like a baby before, during, and after getting my teeth deep cleaned at the dentist a while back. I made DH come in with me and he ended up holding my hand the entire time. Tears were running down my face and I was squeezing his hand so hard it went numb. The tech was super nice and kept asking me if she should stop. I'd just shake my head no as the tears kept running down my face. As we were paying and getting ready to leave, the sweet receptionist asked how I was doing and the tears came flooding out again. I was so embarrassed! I'm 34 years old, and I was acting like I was 3-4 years old! Clearly I have some dentist anxiety.

jjgrl55 · July 2013

Yesterday when I got a BFN. We have one more cycle to go before we have to TTA for a while and it really got to me that I have one more chance before I have to start figuring out birth control and all of that mess again.

I am shocked my therapist and psychologist hasn't literally said those words to me. That is me!
