Ditto here with the BP and the sudden crazy crying spell. It's as if suddenly out of nowhere the world ends and I cannot stop crying or hold back the tears if my life depended on it. The worst is that it happened at work today during a meeting and it was humiliating!! I'd also love to know how to stop or at least post pone it and what causes it.

I have Bi-Polar, Depression and anxiety (panic) disorder. For some reason (like today), I have major crying spells. Has anyone else gone through this and how do you stop the crying? My poor husband just doesn't understand and always tells me that "Things will get better". I'm so tired of hearing this. Help!!

Hello Toot66, I also feel like crying for no reason. I also try to fight the tears but it´s hard. This crying spells are becoming more frequent. They are very uncomfortable because they can appear at any time and any place.

Thank u again and I will. I found something called kava kava and I take that and it helps. I'm getting a new outlook on things. I can feel my eyes watering up sometimes I be trying to fight the tears but its hard. But I realize that I can't depend on no one to make me happy. I have to depend on myself and put god first. Thank you again this is what I needed all the time and didn't. Know it.

Good for you!  It sounds like you may have reasons for crying, just remember to work on the things you can change, and accept what you can't.

Thank you for that. I'm trying to learn how to deal wit situations. That's going on in my life.

Depression can cause crying spells for no apparent reason.  Although with therapy, the reason may be uncovered.  I'm sure you've been told all the obvious reasons like sadness from the loss of a loved one, to happiness like when a man proposes to his girlfriend, frustrations from lack of control over a situation or the direction in which your life is going, etc.  If you don't know why you're crying....just explain to others that you just remembered something that mad you sad, you don't need to give details or say that you really don't know why.....maybe just hormonal.  People are very understanding and will know that there has to be a reason, because we do cry for a reason...whether we know what it is or not. Hope this helps and take care.
