[up][up] Everyone says that... guess what? I HATE IT!!!!

Maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. Point is, crying makes me feel like I've died inside.

I don't think it's healthy all the time - I've had a few cycles of media-reinforced depression myself - but I usually avoid reading stuff that's unhealthy for me out of pure instinct.

I like thought inducing sadness, like the ending of Watchmen. Not a fan of sadness for no real reason.

You know, I think I'm actually the other way around. I like sad stuff that ends with the story, so if it's too relavent to my life I don't like it as much.

Then again, one of my favorite anime is Welcome to the NHK and that's so relavent it's frightening. So I could just be bullshitting myself.

[down] Don't go! I'm sure things'll work out soon.

Sadness for no reason... I believe that trope is called Shoot the Shaggy Dog, if I'm not mistaken.

(Also, read the end of my last post, in case you didn't see it.)

[down][down] No, I can only post every 10 minutes, which is too long for how fast this thread moves.

...Seems like I drop right at the good time. Just read the whole Fanon-Tear Jerker page for MLP Fi M. It's heartwrenching. Especially everything involving Derpy. For some reason, the fact that fanon made her The Woobie with a loving family make it worse. Anything between Celestia and Luna, too.

Wait, what's the problem with how the system's treating you? You're leaving just cuz you can't post pics?

[up] I once did that... I couldn't work for two days. I am THAT sensitive. Sad things trigger memories of other sad things and it snowballs from there

I followed with the whole Heartwarming page, and then the Funny one. It helped me. A lot.

[down]I don't drink much. Just had to rehydrate myself after Funny and -Hop ! Good as new.

[up] Heartwarming almost made me feel worse. Tears of joy mixed with tears of sadness is STILL just more tears. [lol]

Tell ya what, I'll return Saturday with my thoughts on The Last Roundup and continue that way until I'm not considered a newfag by the system.

(yeah, let's see how long I can keep this up.)

I don't cry at sad things, but I do feel sad. However It takes very little to make my happy again. Hell, I can more or less be happy at will now. ^_^

I cry more nowadays. It's a terrible feeling.

I cried for 10 straight minutes when Fell left

I don't cry very much, but I like being made to feel emotions. If a work of fiction isn't wrapping up your emotions and moving you, then I don't consider it a good piece of fiction, really.

I almost never actually cry, but I'll tear up at a lot of stuff.

I very nearly cried in Fallout Equestria at Steel Hooves' funeral. Other than that closest I can get to crying unless I'm extremely frustrated or angry is a sympathetic "Awwww..."

[up][up][up] It depends on WHY you're watching/reading in my opinion. Not everyone WANTS tocry when watching a film.

I'm more open to it now, but I still don't go out of the way to make myself cry

^Well, I'm not saying they need to cruelly play with your emotions. =) But you should sympathize with the characters, is my point. You should feel, to some extent, what they feel, whether that's happiness or sadness.

In all honesty, it took me a good half of the Tear Jerker page to feel my eyes filling with tears. I didn't cry at all, in fact.

[up][up]Sometimes it helps. Well, that's what I think. Again, being alone in space doesn't help.

Too afraid to open my chest of drawers. My sis has discovered one of my biggest weaknesses. She's hidden it all around the house.

Guys... I'm terrified. [lol]

Ginger, controlling emotions is not an easy thing, It take Buddhist monks years of training to master peacefulness. Don't worry about it. There are up sides to heightened emotions, like you would be very unlikely to hurt someone.

[up][up] Is the weakness Pinkie Pie?

[down] I want that portal ^_^
