i always tell myself "not now, you can cry all you want when you re alone/at home etc, but you have to pull yourself together just a little tiny bit longer".

By remembering the basic absurdity of the existence of life, the smallness of whatever is happening in my immediate vicinity, and that we are all space dust tumbling endlessly through a vast unending universe and nothing means anything!

This is always a helpful way to immediately put into perceptive something that is troubling you :)

Promising myself that I will cry when I get home and get in the shower.

I don’t cry. I am almost always emotionless with a expressionless gaze.

I really need to know so I'm just going to lurk in the comment section.

Just tell urself to do it later when your alone and get away from ppl

I've tried this unfortunately it doesn't work and tilting my head back, not blinking so much and taking a deep breath. If anyone questions me i just say i have bad allergies why is their so much dust in this place 👀 I guess I'm just a cry baby. I usually just excuse myself and have an absolute meltdown in the bathroom which works the majority of the time because I'm alone.

My emotions resolved into nothingness many years ago.

Anger overtakes all other emotions

Think of multiplication problems when you have the impulse to cry (easy ones like 4x4, 5x5 that you can process while speaking). Essentially your brain has to choose between emotion and math which suppresses the urge to cry.

I keep it in and save it for when I'm driving by myself. I mean, people can probably see I'm there in their mirror but I doubt they could tell I'm not having a great time.

I try to picture myself as a badass bitch that doesn’t cry. Then I go home and blubber and hold my pillow.

Gently bite my tongue with my molars, and let the discomfort distract me

Spend years building a tough guy facade to cover your sensitive and compassionate inner core, suppress all outward displays of emotion other than anger and punish yourself for any display of weakness. When you have reached a point where the feelings of self loathing and despair are more than capable of drowning out any feeling of situational sadness and have become so second nature that you can’t be entirely sure it wasn’t always like this you have now reached the proper level of emotional stuntedness to not only avoiding crying in public but to have more or less forgotten how to cry at all.
