Grateful to Cry

I thought I wasn't able to cry because of my antidepressants. I needed to cry but even watching a sad movie didn't help.  Then the dam broke and I couldn't stop.  I surely was feeling my feelings: grief, anger, frustration, shame, resentment. Not sure what changed but I found myself weeping during a phone call. Little things: closing a family trust 4 1/2 years after my dad's death, seeing a photo of my 11 year old grandson. I had a headache and

felt dehydrated. I thought it was done but I awakened during the night weeping. I'm grateful.
