Hey /fit/

How do you stop being emotional? I'm tired of getting angry and sorry for myself all the time.

I tried this once. It's not very good for your health. It's better to take care of your emotions in a constructive manner.

Here's my story though:

For some reason it's real easy to make me cry although I never feel bad. My body cries regardless of how I feel. I don't get it, but it makes me look like a pansy. Damn it pisses me off

You could desensitize yourself to the point where you wont care anymore.

Crying is good. Its emotional catharsis.
I wish I could cry, sometimes. I can't, though, I need to be drunk and alone... When I'm sober, and alone, its like i'm still ashamed of myself, ashamed to cry infront of the invisible people in my head that are always watching and judging me, I guess. Gotta be tough, can't cry as a guy, not about stupid shit like how shit can get fucked up in ones life, thats emo pansy bullshit. Suck it up and make an effort to improve whatever is bothering me. No time for pain, life goes on.

Yeah... if only I could cry.

I got a friend with PTSD, and as bullshit as it sounds to some folks, that mother fucker is a ticking time bomb in certain situations and you can just see him get uneasy. But I suppose medication could help out, so to OP, why not just get doped up?

Bullshit? I have a hard time being around bridges. Whenever a kid runs into the street I start looking for a way to drive around it. When someone takes out a cellphone I think it's going to activate a bomb.

And so on.

Get some confidence. Get a laid back view of the world. Stop thinking you're so important that you deserve to get angry over petty things.

The best way is to change

Why are you angry? bad job? bad relationship? do something about it.

Why are you sorry for yourself? are you tired of how your life is? do something about it.

Read Kurt Vonnegut. Read Catch-22. Absurdist books gives a great world view. An exert from one of Vonnegut's books

Tiger gotta run
Bird gotta fly
Man gotta ask why, why, why

Tiger gotta sleep
Bird gotta land
Man gotta tell himself he understands

Me too, if I didn't have a girlfriend to leave behind I would just ditch everything and enlist.

Ditch the broad, trust me...you wont end up marrying her. I wasted 6 years on the ex and now am going into the armed forces later than I would have liked.
