    We have all heard the claim that a 'good cry' will make you feel better. While waterworks may be good for some, according to a new study, most people actually do not feel better afterward. How about you?

    It depends. Usually, if I am crying over something in my life, it has me pretty down, so just the cry is not enough. Time is what makes it better.

    I don't cry often.

    For several years after my wife died, some things (usually a movie portrayal) would trigger a crying episode (sometimes sobbing). I suppose it was cathartic.

    For me, I don't think it does. There's liberation in allowing yourself to cry, but afterwards it does not make me feel any better or worse.
