Do you ever cry?

Post Reply New Topic

As an adult, I have hardly ever cried. In fact, I think it was years ago the last time I cried. Are autistic people just less likely to cry?

Nope. I have always been a cryer. I wish I could be permanently cool and collected, but I can lose it pretty easily.

Nope. I can cry over the littlest things, sometimes----usually, if someone else gets hurt, physically or mentally, or something like that. I was choking-back tears, just watching a TV show, the other day.....

Before this year I could think of about a dozen times I'd actually cried. Now that my boyfriend is 2000 miles away, I cry all the fricking time. I think everyone has their own tear triggers, and Aspies may have different or fewer (or more) triggers than NTs.

I cry on average twice a day (sometimes more), but I'm a teenager with crazy hormones so i don't know if i count.

Only when I'm being an emo fag. Which is thankfully rare.

Whenever I lose enough at a game to get a meltdown I start shouting and crying

nah, haven't cried out of emotion in years. though there's no helping tearing up due to eye irritations.

though maybe i did shed a tear when i saw a picture of my grandpa hugging his poodle puppy. ever since he was a kid he wanted a poodle but he never had one. he had one then, but he (the doggy) died soon afterwards, i saw. we all saw.

other then that i can't really remember...2013 january? february?

Yep, every once in a while when something really gets to me. Could be something sad, or depressing, or even happy ie tears of joy. But I don't cry very often.

I used to be a fair bit more emotional and would cry more often, but it's been pretty seldom the last couple years.

Seldom. But I just became a bit teary reading a WP thread by a member who's recently been diagnosed with cancer. I couldn't even respond to it as I didn't know what to say.

^ Thanks, Campin_Cat. I responded to it. It's horrible that people became distant to your sister because of her cancer, although I believe they actually do want to say something to her. My father is doing his best to be in contact with his close friend who has cancer but it's been very stressful.

Sorry for going a bit off topic.

Very rarely

I cry if I'm sad or happy. And I don't really get angry. I just go straight to hurt then confused then sad.

I've always pretty much been this way though I used to have some bouts with anger--usually over some failed social engagement, sometimes a failed thing like a machine or a computer.

Quite a bit, but hell I don't want anyone else to see. I like being alone when crying as it's usually something being too much for me. Need time to recover. I cried like hell when I thought they weren't going to let me home from hospital.
