    I feel like I have nowhere to express my pain.
    I mean I've acted out over 2 thousand times, and every time I can't express my guilt. Just after I act out, I want to cry badly, but I can't because my parents will hear me. I live in an apartment with them, and I'm very rarely alone at home, so where can I express myself to let go of all of these emotions bottled up inside me?

    I feel so stuffed with years of pain.

    Where can I cry?

    You can try writing, drawing or some creative practice to get out emotional turmoil.

    Other than that you can explore your environment a bit to see if you can find a secluded slither somewhere to hide.

    My apologies if this sounds cold. You have my deepest sympathies. I know exactly how you feel which is why I feel I can give a little advice.

  3. You can draw or paint your sadness. As for cry personally the best place for me is forest.
    I tried both things and they work ! You should try them.

    I'm sorry you are struggling. :( I've found crying to be very cathartic and healthy. The tears need to be released and not stuffed down inside of us. Sometimes, I've cried while running. Something about being outdoors is freeing. I hope you find peace.

  6. At least be happy that you are able to cry - I wasn't able for 20 years ;)

    Hi Anon117,
    Crying is a good thing for lowering any stress and letting your emotions out to get calm afterwards.
    I once read that there are negative ions in tears , so look at it as getting rid of negative things while processing the negative experiences you're crying over.
    Above all, don't be ashamed and love yourself !
    I cry sometimes while walking in a park or something, where you can be alone.
    Good luck here and lots of courage to hold on to your goals !
