Forcing yourself not to cry or swallow your anger and pretend you're not mad?

the second I guess.

Forcing self not to cry.

Chris, it seems we're at an impasse.

To me, it's way more difficult to pretend I'm not mad.

...Alexa, it seems we're at an impasse.

Why?

Both are pretty difficult I'd say...but I find it really hard to stop myself from crying!

Are you depressed or something?

Are you depressed or something?

 

Who, me?

I meant that to Alexa.

It's impossible for me to force myself not to cry, and I cry when I'm angry, so it's a tie.

Are you depressed or something?

 

I'm angry.

Touché.

pretending im not mad. it always shows :\

^same.

When I'm angry I usually like to get that across.

It's more difficult forcing myself not to cry. I cry over everything, I'm just like that. The slightest things:

 

I'm much better at hiding my anger, usually I can put on a happy face and pretend everything is fucking peachy.

it depends. I'd have to say overall pretending your not mad.

Pretending I'm not mad.

 

If I'm mad about something, I can't let it go. I have to tell the person off or at least let them know I'm angry or it just kills me.

I don't get mad very often, so I would suppose the first one :thinking:

I don't cry much either :laugh3: After being called cry baby alot when I was younger I now find it easier to supress tears :awesome:

 

 

:blank: So neither.

I was a cry baby when I was young and still am.

 

:(

Depends what mood I'm in.

Pretending I'm not mad is more difficult. The only thing I succeed in doing is acting standoff-ish, so people know I'm upset about something.

 

If I feel like I'm going to cry I can usually avoid it pretty easily by pinching myself really hard somewhere. The pain is distracting.

Ever since I felt immensely weird crying once in front of idiots when I was little, I never cried in front of anyone again, so holding tears is pretty easy to me.

 

But anger isn't that easy. I tend to isolate myself but just when someone makes me lose patience, which rarely happens, but a few hours ago that happened and I was practically burning.

Holding in tears. Holding in anger is easier for me. Apparently I'm a very peacful person.

Chris, it seems we're at an impasse.

Well I never cry, so its not much of a question for me.
