    I am a big believer in the therapeutic effects of having a good solid cry.

    I am man enough to cry when I need to and damn, a good solid cry does feel amazing when you are done.

    Crying removes emotional tension and gets rid of excess energy, leaving you better able to deal with the issue after.

      For most of my life whenever I felt shitty for a few days but hadn’t cried yet, I’d put on a sad movie and just bawl during the whole thing. Felt much better after a good cry and a good sleep.
