[quote=Anonymous]I have always been a crier but I hate hate hate when it happens at work.

I think the world is divided into people who recognize how hard it is to control if you’re a crier, and how many people think it’s manipulative and “just hold it together!”  Believe me I would if I could.

Often I cried when I was really angry, but I didn’t have a way of expressing it at work.

Things that helped:

Realizing that my job that I was trying to convince myself was not that bad was bad enough to make me frustrated over and over again, so I left. (Over the span of years to get to this decision, and after having cried in front of managers when I didn’t want to)

Therapy, 8 months weekly, to talk about why I was crying. This helped to validate my thoughts about work a lot.

A mild antidepressant. This and the therapy were the most helpful. I’m still on the antidepressant after having fought it a long time. I wouldn’t say I’m depressed, it just really helped with the inappropriate crying. [/quote]
