This is one in the works that's going to last 5 days. . At least 3 of those will be spent crying

I would love to go to one but 1.i can't get away for 3 days and 2. I don't think I'd end up being able to cry and then I'd feel even more stuck.

There's a thing where people arrange African style grief rituals where essentially they gather at a retreat for 3 days and cry. And cry and cry and cry. The ideais torelease any suppressed greif without restriction..Obviously these are sensitive events and there's no filming but online I've found several amazing descriptions by people who have been to them and they slums like a dacryphiliacs idea of heaven. A room full of people of all kinds unrestrainedly weeping all together.
There was another ritual I read about where a group of wiccans went to a cairn in Ireland to release their greif. All of them, mem and women both, eventually broke down and as they did they would approach a cauldron and cry into it so that all their tears would mingle. I so wish I. Could have seem that.

Not what I was picturing but interesting. But the context is odd.

I'm not talking about crying scenes in books but bills that have crying at least in part, as subject matter.
There's one called crying. Really original title. .about the role crying plays in life. . The roles it has played in various cultures, how crying was viewed in different periods in history. The way it was used in literature at different points. The emotional, biological, and biochemical stuff about tears themselves. .... It can be pretty interesting.
There's another small one I found on Amazon called the path of tears. It's written by a guy who asher decades of not crying slowly taught himself to cry again and sets aside dedicated times for crying in his life. The way others will dedicate time to medidation. He feels it has changed his life and wrote this book to tell his story and then goes through step by step how top rekearn to cry if you struggle with it. The description of the crying process in the how to chapter is tingling to read for a dacryphile. He goes through everything from preparing things to hold on to, prepping the space, feeling it well up.... You can watch it play out in your head as you read.
There's others I haven't read yet. One about the wailing women of the yemenite Jewish tradition any how and why they make others cry.
There's another one about art moving people to tears.
Any others anyone wants to recommend?

Where did you find that? ?I've never found anything on it. No videos. Not even fiction. Just scholarly historical articles.
