Sobbing is soggy and when you really get going at it, it’s guttural. When my first husband committed suicide, I did that. Hang in there medlady and know you are not sobby and soggy alone. hugs

Sobbing is a release. It makes you feel better. Don’t feel like you have to hide it even if others are uncomfortable. Maybe its okay that they are.

Being sad is never attractive,
it is contagious,
it makes your mother even more worried than when you cry,
I wish I could leave the sad states to experts, so they can make other people feel uncomfortable, not me.
