When your tear ducts have gone rogue and they’ve betrayed you:
“Crying helps us manage our feelings, and, from a biological standpoint, it forces us to breath and requires taking a deep breaths, which keeps our heart rate slow,” Degges-White says. “It’s a self-soothing mechanism that the body has built in. It’s productive.”
But, especially when we’re mad at work or in public, there are times we wish we could hold these tears back. They often get the better of us. “It’s an honest signal — it’s hard to fake,” he says.” It’s a way for us to communicate our emotional state with other individuals. One some level, it’s a solicitation of caregiving.”
To be totally upfront, I’m not someone who gets mad easily. But I’ve definitely cried out of frustration. The last time this happened to me, I was in the middle of a half marathon. I was grooving along in the 10th mile, and I was on a runner’s high. I was pumped up, and hoping to break my time. My playlist was pumping me up with some old school Hannah Montana. And then something in my knee started to pull. I tried to keep running, but I couldn’t do it.
As it happens, when people saw me crying, they helped me and got me ice. I wouldn’t have asked for that on my own. Perhaps biology was looking out for me that day. My tears asked for help when my mouth couldn't. Or maybe I’m just a crybaby. Either way, the ice was good for my IT band. So, next time you feel like crying out of anger, petulance, or frustration, and you’re so annoyed at your body for doing this embarrassing thing to you, remember that this biological function might have your back more than you think.
