Sobbing is never, ever attractive. It makes people uncomfortable.
Sobbing induces other people’s sobbing. It makes the one who started the sobbing feel a little guilty, but not really.
Sobbing is best suppressed after two minutes. One can continue to sob inwardly, but it’s best to be polite about it and shut up.
Sobbing causes mothers and fathers to cry, especially if it’s their daughter who’s sobbing the loudest or the only one who’s sobbing.
Sobbing is a sign of suffering. What can one do?
Sobbing as a memory induces sobbing in the here and now.
Sobbing is best left to the experts. Do not try this at home.

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.
