As a girl I think it's necessary to cry but my tense muscles go sore when I try.
It's like the chest and shoulder area go into pain.
Help me please.
time to break out the Ben and Jerry's again :'( dammit people .... now i want to cry.
I never got the whole boys should be tough and not cry bit. I think crying is very healthy to do.
At times I have been too darned depressed to even cry.
watching youtube videos of other's transitions works for me. realizing how far off the path I was in my story. :'(
This vid really gets to me. Think Ill try watching it next time I need a blood test to counter my hysteric phobia about needles.

Watch the Lion King - that freakin' film turns me into an emotional wreck! Or otherwise, become an Arsenal football fan and endure their current rubbishness lol :P
In all seriousness though, maybe try to relax a bit? Crying shouldn't be something you can turn on and off, it should be emotional, spontaneous imho.
