Hi There

We understand that you do have times where you feel emotional and cry about something sad but as soon as hear your family members you wipe away your tears and pretend like it never even happened. It sounds like you are a really resilient person but we want to reassure you that crying about something sad is normal behaviour. In fact it shows that you are a real empath 🥰

Although it is completely fine to cry it is important that you are talking through anything that you need to with someone that you trust. Sometimes it can actually be easier to do this with a stranger so we encourage you to have a look at these Listening Services who you can contact for support whenever you need to 🫶

You have done really well to use this space to be honest about how you are feeling. If you are feeling like suicide is an option right now then you can call Hopeline247 on 0800 068 4141 or Text us on 88247 to speak with a trained Suicide Prevention Adviser who will be more than happy to help 💟
