Let's say you're in public with some people and for some reason you start to cry randomly because of past trauma. You try to stop but you can't
What can you say to make the situation less awkward?
>>

If you poop your diapee then it will distract them from the crying
>>
>>34594828
If they're your friends, you can just be honest and say that you remember some past trauma.
If they're acquaintances, just say that you rememberd some stuff, but that you'll be fine.
If they're unknown to you, just distance yourself a bit, try to calm down, and then return.

Crying in public isn't that unusual. Don't sweat it. Sometimes we just bottle things up and it becomes too much.
Best wishes, OP.

I’m sorry to hear that. Personally, my eyes sometimes tear up even when I’m not feeling sad. I usually say this confidently so people don’t misunderstand what’s happening. Most of the time everything becomes clear once I explain, but if I’ve already teared up and walked away, then that would have been harder to clarify. Anyway, it may help to simply say, “My eyes are tearing up, I’m okay,” without appearing upset or distressed.

Being a pathetic cry baby as the time your gf takes care is you. For some reason she is attracted to when you cry. Just be honest and let it out when with her

Sometimes I cry because somebody says something nice to me, or because they're talking about something seemingly unrelated, so the "I have trauma" doesn't fly, because they feel they're making me cry
>>
I'm not talking about me crying. Not comfortable here

wear sunglasses

That's alright, take your time. These things can be tough brother. Whatever caused it, I hope things become better soon. Rest well.
>>
>>34594828
Say you're thinking of Palestine, or whatever cause is popular with women, and they'll probably think you're a good person.

>>34599104
>it just makes me so sad.....
>>
>>34596092
yeah, I also recommend sunglasses. I would cry a lot randomly after my breakup. Not sure if it helps a lot since tears still move down your face.
>>
You can cry and get those emotions and frustrations out while she cradles you in her arms comforting and caring for you
>>
>>34599318
women don't do that
>>34599104
I don't know how to make it believable though
>>
>sorry, I just have a lot going on
And if they press for details, say you'd rather talk about it when you are less emotional and buy yourself time to decide what you do or do not want to share.

People will assume you have your reasons and let you be, there can be so many things that make a person have a slight breakdown like that, even just something like being very tired or having been pretty sick recently greatly contribute to it and most people with some life experience realize that and will give you some space.

>>34594828
From your writing I can’t imagine you’re someone anyone would expect not to start crying randomly so own it girlie. You’re not fucking trump. You think you’re trump giving an address you idiot? You’re not and that’s a good thing. You’re a little pink haired cry baby with shitty tattoos and everyone expects you to cry. People get uncomfortable when baby doesn’t cry because it means something’s WRONG, not RIGHT
>>
>>34599815
My gf does
>>
>>34599898
She says something similar. Encouraged me to collapse and cry when ever I have a bad thought. Then she cares for me holds me and tells me to stop thinking, no more thoughts, i have you and it's going to be okay
