What Causes Crying Spells?
Question: I am a very emotional person, and I cry at the drop of a hat. Things that other people brush off or laugh about, cause me to cry uncontrollably. It isn't rational, and I don't even know why I'm doing it sometimes. What does this mean and what can I do about it?
Brief Answer:
You may need a behavioural modification therapy or group session
Detailed Answer:
Hi ! Welcome to health care magic! Thanks for sharing your concerns with us. We will try to help you in best way possible.
Based on the history you have shared, it is nothing of extreme worry and can be controlled with few basic measures. First of all, you need to bring few basic things in your life style. That may begin with bringing in more recreational activities in your leisure time. That may range from spending more time with your peers and hanging and dining to traveling. Listening and reading to motivational lectures and books can bring in positive changes in your life. You can start all these changes on your own or you can start by consulting a psychotherapist to have sessions where you can speak about your issues and he or she may propose a proper plan to start with. First all non pharmacological measures should be ensued and gradually follow up visits should be arranged to look for the response in emotional lability and other such issues. If individual issues don't pay off, you may be asked to join group sessions which can be of extreme help. If these measures don't sound adequate, some mood stabilisers may be started after psychiatrist review if needed. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a great health. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Regards.
