We all know whether young or old we all have shed tears in our time, regardless of locale or creed and people presume crying is a weakness sign. If a man cries, everybody calls him a wimp.
They do not openly weep, but there are a few well-earned tears shed by men.
It does not matter what gender you are, crying doesn’t mean you are weak. Don’t miss any opportunity to cry, crying is good for you.
1. When You Cry, the Tears You Release, Kill Bacteria.
There's a bacteria-killing cry and that is good for you. When you cry your eyes release a fluid of sorts named lysozyme (also found in human semen, saliva, and milk).
Lysozyme can kill up to 90 per cent of bacteria in about 10 minutes.
There was a study published in the journal Food Microbiology that shows tears contain antimicrobial powers that protect against anthrax.
2. It Improves Your Vision
No complex theory is needed to prove this one. Many people notice that after they cry and shed tears, they tend to see better.
Tears clear up your vision by lubricating your eyelids and eyeballs.
The membranes of the eyes can become dehydrated, and when this happens, tears bathe the surface, keeping it moist and washing away dust and debris.
3. Crying Makes You Feel Good
When a strong emotion builds up inside you, don't hold back the tears. Let them flow. However, I’m not advising you to cry every time an emotion comes up.
Try it as an experiment: when you’re alone and feel the urge to cry, allow the tears to come. Afterwards, you may notice that you feel better than you did before.
Antidepressants are meant to elevate your mood, but shedding a few tears can often elevate your mood and make you feel better than any antidepressants you can get.
4. You Can Use Tears to Express Your Feelings
Not everything needs to be spoken. Sometimes, you may have the words but find it difficult to say them.
Often in relationships, girls use this medium to express emotions or gratitude. She may run out of words to express her gratitude to you, and instead, you might see her shedding tears of joy and embracing you with silent whispers of, "Thank you so much."
Crying heals you emotionally, mentally, and psychologically.
5. Crying Reduces Stress
When you cry due to emotions, your body releases stress hormones like cortisol through your tears. This process can help lower stress levels, giving you a sense of relief after crying. It’s like your body’s natural way of “detoxing” from stress.
6. Crying Triggers the Release of Endorphins
Emotional tears can stimulate the production of endorphins, which are feel-good hormones that relieve pain and elevate mood. This explains why, after a good cry, many people feel lighter and more at ease.
7. Crying Helps Us Connect with Others
Crying can create a bond with those around you. When others see someone crying, it often evokes empathy, compassion, and connection. It’s a way to communicate vulnerability and foster understanding, which is essential for building stronger relationships.
8. Crying Can Improve Sleep
Studies suggest that crying can help you fall asleep more easily. Since crying can help relieve stress, you may find it easier to relax and fall asleep afterwards. The release of emotional tension can prepare your mind and body for rest, leading to a more peaceful night’s sleep.
So what are you still waiting for? Get a handkerchief ready and let those tears flow!
