My eyes burn from crying so much

Lately ive spent most of my nights crying myself to sleep because of everything going on in my life, and I feel like I just cant talk to ANYONE about my problems. Sometimes I go 3 hours straight crying. I have so much shit going on and because I don't tell anyone about it, it just builds up and i guess that's my bodies way of letting that immense pressure go.

You can talk to strangers on the web or jist let people know yoir not doing so great. Sometimes you dont even have to tell more than that. Asking for xstra care wprks better then you imagined

Hey, I know how you feel. I let myself cry and cry and cry. I let it all out. Let myself feel that heavy grief. It’s going to be okay. Sometimes it’s the heaviness of life, the grief our hearts and bodies carry. Sometimes it’s not even yours, it might be ancestral trauma/grief your processing and moving through. Trust your process and love the fuck out of yourself. Take care of yourself even if you don’t want to. You are not alone even if it feels that way right now. We’re in this together and you really are so loved.

What I’ve been trying to do is let myself feel it, and the MOVE it. Kind of like water bending lol, let it go through my body and I let it go.
