About 1.5 years ago, when my cat died.
When I moved to my current place of residence. It also coincided with a death, so it was a double whammy.
Was rewatching house and watched probably the two best episodes of the series and it made me cry like crazy. I forgot about those two episodes.

When I watched "The Whale" at the movie theater. Half of the room was crying at the end.
Real crying? 7 years ago...
Last week listening to one life by the last emperor
7 years ago, before the day my first dog was euthanized at the vet.
Either I've had it alright so far or my medication is keeping it in at this point...
Anxiety, depression or birth control meds? (Feel free to ignore this if its too personal)
Anxiety and depression. I've gone from Lexapro to Venlafaxine to Prozac. Hard to tell if I should switch again or if I just have to feel this way until I'm employed.
This morning. I cry pretty regularly though. It's a good way to keep myself in touch with myself.
Happy cry: I watched Coda for the second time.
Sad cry: when I put my dog down.
Yesterday, while watching Beastars on Netflix, I shed some tears. Show's surprisingly good, despite its furry leanings.
But the last time I sobbed was during the finale of the Last of Us show. As a dad, that penultimate scene wrecked me emotionally.

Father's Day a couple weeks ago (in Australia). Something my 8yo daughter wrote in my card, reminded me of how my own dad isn't with me any more, and wasn't around to see me become a dad. Happens most Father's Days, to be honest.
Just a couple days ago, thinking about my cat that I had to put down ~6 months ago. He was sick and in pain but I'm still sad about it.
I don't think you need to push yourself to cry. Everyone processes their emotions differently. For a long time I also didn't cry much/at all. I was very guarded about my emotions. Between getting older and my wife, whom I can be completely open with, I have gotten more emotional as I have gotten older.
I do grief work daily. I donβt cry often but Iβm grateful when I do. It means that Iβm healing.
About four hours ago.
At the last movie probably haha
I cry almost every day. Two kids under two can be exhausting sometimes, and I have a lot of stress and anxiety. They are awesome, I just can't handle it all the time. I'm lucky enough to have an awesome wife who's very supportive, so we'll get through it!
A coworker asked me if i was ok and i just broke down hyperventilatin and sobbing
I teared up a little yesterday watching Elemental for the first time. Last time I full on cried was when I watched Coco with my daughter.
Last week. Why? "You bow to no one"
Last Monday driving to work after filing divorce papers for court date with my ex-wife.
30 years ago when I was 15 or so. From time to time it worries me a bit.
Whenever I last rewatched ATLA.
About a year ago. One of my best and closest friends died. It didn't hit me right away. Took almost two months. Hadn't cried for maybe 4 years before that?
No tears for a long ass time but I basically had a no-tear cry when I realized I was struggling so hard to keep up with cleaning, cooking and excercise mentally which is literally what nearly all adults do and many do it on autopilot. Made me feel like such a child.
I was smart enough to recognize that was just imposter syndrome by the next day but it hit hard at the time
The ending to Clerks III. I haven't cried like that in ages!
I cry at least every few days.
Two nights ago at the end of Man on the Moon. Andy Kaufman was such a treasure and Jim Carey really worked hard to pay tribute to him. Itβs tragic that Andyβs life ended so young. He was really special.
About 3 years ago, I was in hospital, just diagnosed with incurable cancer.
