    1. How often do you cry?
    Well I'm a crybaby so rather often but more as of late cuz the weather isn't helping and I seem to be consuming media that makes me tear up. But there are months when I just don't cry.

    2. What makes you cry?
    Usually when I feel sad or very touched from life events, watching shows/dramas/movies, reading novels/comics......or if it's too windy/dry out.... Or if I'm upset....or if I'm scared... or if I'm in pain...
    Like day before was crying over this YouTube video cuz the YTber so nice giving money to people who need it. Then I kept crying cuz I kept watching his videos doing that.
    I also tend to cry when in novels the baby gets killed. Like why the babbyyy :cry:

    3. How long do you cry each time that you cry?
    If it's dry out, pretty long.... Though I'm not really surprised if I cry for like a short few minutes or long time like an hour.

    4. Is crying good for you?
    Well :hmm: they're good for my eyes.. not so helpful when I get a runny nose

    5. How do you like to be treated by other people who encounter you when you are crying?
    lf I'm upset crying, I wish ppl would just stop yelling at me and arguing cuz I just cry more . But if it's everything else crying, I like hugs and tissues.

    1. How often do you cry?
    Rarely
    2. What makes you cry?
    When I get distressed to my breaking point, but I usually bottle everything inside so it takes a while to actually cry for myself.

    When I watch sad/touching videos and stories, though this doesn't occur often as well. Past few months I've been watching animal videos on YouTube on a channel called Kritter Club tho, and those were pretty effective lol.

    3. How long do you cry each time that you cry?
    Most times, when I feel like I'm going to cry my brain is like, "oh crap, you're crying." And it stops almost immediately. When I'm distressed, I've never timed myself before so I don't know lol. Not too long tho but it depends on how crappy I feel.

    4. Is crying good for you?
    Yeah. It helps release the negative emotions. If not release, then it at least helps me express myself. When I realize "oh, I'm sad," and get that feeling of acknowledgment (even if it's only from myself) I feel a lot better. Then if I'm feeling productive I can start thinking of what I can do so I stop feeling sad.

    5. How do you like to be treated by other people who encounter you when you are crying?
    Just... Ignore me. It's not like I'm crying because I want your pity or compassion. No I don't feel like talking, I just want to cry for now so let me cry, leave me alone and I'll take care of it and return to normal after like, a day or so. Yup.

    1. How often do you cry?
    Very rarely

    2. What makes you cry?

    It depends on the situation, but it would take a considerable amount of distress.
    Or if I am mentally exhausted and I somehow unleashed my repressed feelings.

    3. How long do you cry each time that you cry?

    A while, maybe a few minutes.
    Hard to quantify something when there's barely any data.

    4. Is crying good for you?
    Crying has never solved any of my issues, so I don't think its an overwhelmingly beneficial action.
    I don't remember being relieved after crying, because if anything its just a reminder of how dire the situation at hand is.

    5. How do you like to be treated by other people who encounter you when you are crying?

    On the off chance I was actually found, I would still rather be left alone.
    I would be furious if one would attempt any physical attempt to comfort me, even more if I was harassed under this state.
    A simple talk could be fine. Yet if it turns out into a meaningless sermon, best expect that it would quickly turn into a violent situation.

    1. How often do you cry?
    Rarely, except if i'm in my bi-monthly angst story galore.
    2. What makes you cry?
    angst stories, looking at my bank account, the world, et cetera

    3. How long do you cry each time that you cry?

    A minute or less than that. I grew up in a culture where crying is not acceptable, so i'm not used to express my sadness in the form of crying. Now i know better than that, but crying for too long still feels uncomfortable

    4. Is crying good for you?
    Yep. It feels really refreshing.

    5. How do you like to be treated by other people who encounter you when you are crying?
    Gimme a cheesecake and an earl grey, then leave me alone, please:blobmelt:

    1. How often do you cry?
    Too often <-<
    2. What makes you cry?
    Anything ranging from something like the death of a character to stress and anger or just pure tiredness (and my own thoughtsss)
    3. How long do you cry each time that you cry?
    Sometimes it's just short bursts and sometimes it's a long suffering sort of thing that can last hoursss
    4. Is crying good for you?
    Usually the way I cry, in which I choke any and all sound from even coming close to leaving my throat, which really hurts and doesn't satisfy my need to cry at all, however I'm too used to not making any sound when I cry <-<.
    When I cry my feelings only get more amplified and by the time I'm done I'll feel much, much worse
    5. How do you like to be treated by other people who encounter you when you are crying?
    hmmm, on one hand I'd really like to say warmly but I know that being treated kindly always makes me want to cry harder and doesn't help the way I'm feeling at all. Being ignored would be too weird. I guess if someone meets me when I'm crying, I'd like it if they could give me a hugggg
