That's the best kind of cry.the random release.

Sounds like an amazing cry - non stop tears sounds nice - you mention tissues did you allow any tears to roll down you cheeks unchecked? Some only use tissues to blow their nose and let the tears flow (my wife for example).

Glad you got a release from crying - not all crying is completely bad.

TorNorth: Yes, I felt it with my hand and I have this large mirror next to my bed, so I looked at my self and saw it as well. I usually don't curl my lip unless if it's really intense, like it was this time.

Tearhunter: I let the tears flow, I like the feeling against my face, it feels relaxing and refreshing. But because there were so many tears I had an extremely runny nose, so I only used the tissues for my nose, enough to make a little pile next to my pillow!

And no problem, I'll post more obs next time they happen.

Sounds like an amazing cry Coastergirl - I agree the feeling of tears rolling down your face is such a release. I only feel relaxed enough to let my tears flow when I'm crying in a safe place but I really do prefer to cry this way rather than try and mop the tears up in an attempt to hide them. It feels like you have really cried and released the emotion if that makes sense.

Intresting that you looked at yourself in a mirror while you were crying - did you watch any of your tears fall down your cheeks? I feel It's almost a kind of outer body experience watching my own tears fall - more so when I watch them form in my eyes, spill over and roll down my face before dripping off my chin. When the tears start falling like this quickly it's quite surreal. Not sure if that makes much sense - hard to explain.
