I have been crying almost everyday these 2 weeks without any warnings, it just happens suddenly. I don’t know what’s going on and if it’s normal or not.
I don’t know what to do and I cannot tell my family about it since they will just say I’m childish. I feel like negativity has filled me to the brim.
I went to JB over the last weekend, but a few hours after I came back from JB, I started crying suddenly again.
I don’t know why I am getting so emotional especially for this month. I can even cry when listening to songs or when doing stuff to relax. Usually this happens only when exams are around the corner but now there is still 5 months.
I sometimes feel like a failure and somehow procrastination has started. Usually I only procrastinate for 1-2 days but this month, I have been procrastinating for 3 weeks
I feel like I cannot cope with this negativity and I don’t know what to do
@4ever Hey, thank you for sharing. Sound like you’re going through a lot and feeling very helpless about the whole situation.
I wonder have you noticed any triggers or patterns which could cause this behaviour? If not, you can consider mood journaling by writing down your emotions, when they happen, and what’s going on around you can reveal patterns and give you a better understanding of what’s causing these feelings.
Meanwhile, are there any close friends which could support you through this journey? You don’t have to be alone in this even if you cannot reach out to your family members.
hey @4ever
sounds like you’re feeling very overwhelmed recently, i want to reassure you that its ok to cry. sometimes we might not be aware that we are feeling stressed about certain things, and that can lead to feelings of sadness or lack or motivation to deal with everyday tasks. perhaps there might be something that is unknowingly causing you stress, and thus you are crying more often as a way to cope with the stress. it might help to take some time and think about what might be causing you to feel so sad (for example what are some triggers that are making you cry? are they linked to something that might be causing you stress?). if talking with your family feels uncomfortable for you, perhaps you could talk to a friend? sometimes talking it out helps you to organise your thoughts and help you realise what might be bothering you. feel free to share more here as well, we’re all here to listen and support you whenever you need❤️
Thank you for sharing how you’re feeling—it takes a lot of courage to open up like this, and I want you to know that your emotions are valid. Crying isn’t a sign of weakness; it’s your body’s way of releasing built-up emotions, and it’s okay to feel this way when things get overwhelming.
It sounds like you’ve been holding so much inside, and the lack of support or understanding from your family makes it even harder. I’m really sorry you’re going through this, but I want to reassure you that you’re not alone in feeling this way, and there are ways to help you manage it.
For now, let’s start small. When you feel like crying, try giving yourself permission to feel it fully. It’s okay to let it out. Then, if you’re up for it, try writing down your feelings. Sometimes putting your emotions into words can help you process them and feel a little lighter.
Remind yourself that it’s acceptable to approach procrastination incrementally. You don’t have to tackle everything at once. Start with one small task, even if it’s just a five-minute effort. Every small step counts, and it’s enough for now.
You’re not a failure, 4ever. You’re doing your best, and that’s enough. If you ever feel ready, talking to a trusted adult, a counsellor, or even a teacher you feel comfortable with can help. You deserve to be supported, and your feelings matter.
You’ve already taken a big step by sharing your struggles, and that’s something to be proud of. We are here for you. What’s one small thing you feel like doing today that might help, even just a little?
