I hadn't cried in 7 years and decided to do some emotional exercises to make myself cry. So I managed to cry about 4 months ago, haven't been able to since even with my grandmothers death. Might start trying again.

I get teary almost every day - not from sadness, but from watching my kids have a positive experience or trying my best to tell them I love them.

But sort of real, proper crying was at my mom’s funeral, before, during and after. That was three years ago.
