If I Start Crying Will I be Able to Stop?

This article shows how many dangerous and incorrect ideas we’ve all learned about crying, like, “Laugh and the Whole World Laughs with You; Cry and You Cry Alone.” That comment alone explains why so many people “isolate” their sad feelings exactly at the point when they most need to communicate openly with others. It also explains why we sometimes “avoid” grieving people, falsely believing that they need to be alone in their sadness. Without the perception of sadness, there cannot be an awareness of joy. http://www.grief-recovery.com/Articles/If_I_Start_Crying.htm
