Jenny, You still care about people and have a good heart and that's probably why you are crying. You have been under a lot of strain and this could be a reaction to it. Give in, have a damned good cry and get it out in the open. I'm sure you'll feel better afterwards. Thinking of you and sending cyber (((HUGS))) to you, Love Viv

Ok I think I have reason to be sad, but not to the point that I am sitting breaking my heart. I feel so low and upset, I just cannot stop crying. I have bottled up all my emotions to help my Husband through a most terrible time because his Sister is very ill fighting Cancer. It is bringing back all the memories of my feeling when my first husband was terminaly ill. Why on earth am I feeling like this, I always thoughtg I was a strong person? Jenny. .

Jenny - been there (the crying not the husband) Go and see your doctor. I spent nearly a month thinking I could cope, I'd get over it. For me it got harder and harder to cope with. Please see your GP. ((((((Hugs)))))) T.O.R. x

Some times you just need to - when you feel a bit brighter, maybe you'll wonder why you did, I guess the answer to that is that you needed to at the time

Jenny been there this last year (as you know) Went on a stress management course and only there 10 mins when the crying started and went on and on! They told me that I had to learn I couldn't be all things to all people and to learn to say no instead of always agreeing to help others. Hard I know but sometimes you just have to take a back seat. Take care of yourself. love Linda x

Thanks for your replies, I am dreading my Hubby coming home and seeing my red and swollen eyes. To top it all I am now very tempted to open a bottle of wine, and have a very early night. Why is it that I coped with my terminally ill Husband for 6 years, who I loved very much and also had three children to look after, all under 10 yrs old and i think I coped very well. Then I now go to pieces when faced with this new crisis. jenny.

Hi Jenny Crying is a release - I do it so many times - and always on my own - I hate people seeing me cry. A doctor told me 30 years ago it was the best medicine - to have a good cry. Also, from my experience, to talk about what is making you feel like this is also good - a trouble shared is a trouble halved. If you want to talk you can pm me - it wont go any further. Make yourself a cup of tea or coffee and take a few deep breathes. Hope you feel better before hubby gets home. Take care Love Mary in Spain xx
