That is something my mom says and I’ve always rolled my eyes and thought “yeah yeah yeah, now let me finish crying.”

But there are times like now where I’m like “maybe my old lady is right..” 

Crying isn’t going to fix anything. Really think about that. 

My hair has been falling out due to stress and I’ve been having breakdowns over it. Why. What’s the point. It isn’t going to grow my hair back. It isn’t even going grow it all back next week. Crying is doing absolutely nothing than waste my time and energy. 

Same goes for a lot of things. I’ve been crying over my regretted behavior towards my ex. I feel guilty. Crying once or twice, okay. But crying everyday for a week. Not okay. It isn’t going to erase what I did. The only way I can remotely “fix” my wrongdoings is change my behavior and move forward and make it up to him in that way (we are still best friends). 

This mindset helps me a lot. Crying doesn’t do anything. It is important and beneficial in its own ways like releasing endorphins, but in a technically speaking, if you stop and think about it sort of way, it isn’t in regards to making your situation better. 

I of course will probably start crying tomorrow, cause BPD, but it’s nice to have rational thoughts here and there. 

Thank you for reading, hope it helps :-)
