Do what I do and build it all up for years until one day you go on an insane killing spree.

That day has yet to come for me though...
Wear ridiculous amounts of non water proof eyeliner and mascara everyday.
And whenever you feel like crying in class, well you know what would happen so you'd manage to somehow stop. Works for most of us girls :wink:

Throw stuff at walls. Or I bite my tongue and count up in multiples of 5 or square roots.

Be reaaally mad, so it overpowers the sadness that makes you want to cry.

Also, blink. A lot. Don't talk until you're sure you've got it under control, since it usually opens the floodgates. And take subtle deep breaths.


Anger makes me cry :s-smilie:
I find taking deep breaths, not talking and trying not to think about anything help.

Usually, i bite my lip,and inside my cheek, breathe in a lot through my nose, and try to avoid talking to anyone. Then, as soon as I get home, I go under the duvet and cry for about four hours straight.

If I'm truly not allowed to cry, I usually look up at something bright (which stops the tears) and think of something hilarious. Thinking of George Osborne usually makes me giggle (he's just so silly)
I find looking upwards helps for some reason.

Try gouging out your eyeballs.

I have empty eye sockets, and it works for me.

If not, his post becomes considerably less jolly and more disturbing.

Sometimes you get really pissed and upset but you dont wanna be seen crying, what do you do>?


Look up. Look to the side.. Generally look at objects. It activates the vision, so tears subside, as eyes aren't good at doing two things at the same time.
I take massive breaths and tell myself "don't cry don't cry don't cry". Thinking about how I don't want to look weak and vulnerable often helps prevent me from crying too. Or I think about something totally different.

I find it pretty difficult actually, at least when I'm having a laughing fit. :rofl2:
Biting my lip until it really hurts
The pain distracts me from needing to cry.
Can't explain how I stop myself, I just do ha.
Calm myself and take a few deep breathes.
go listen to music or go out get some fresh air that can help.

Usually I punch several things then I go outside and take a walk and listen to my Ipod. Teeth clenching and breathing deep help too.
