Why does my body ache when I cry or am upset?

Q: When I cry or become really upset, my legs and my arms ache like hell for hours and hours, and the thought of a massage sounds like Heaven. (Ha ha!) Why does this happen?

A: It is a normal reaction for you to feel this way. The body deals with STRESS also through our nervous system and can create tension in your muscles.

Q: It is usually when I cry but does happen when I get horribly upset…why does this happen and is there a way to stop it? it is a throbbing headache right in the front of my forehead, aspirin and ibuprofen does nothing. Ice packs and cold items make it worse, what can I do?queenb…I find your answer very rude and ignorant. I do not cry all the time and do not need “therapy” In case you did not notice but this is not in the mental health section. I have had these headaches since I was a child and have always been told by doctors “don’t cry” which I think most people can agree that a normal human being cannot go through life without stress, heartache and just not cry, ever. Yes I get upset when a family member or pet dies and I also believe that many other situations may cause someone to cry, it is a natural reaction that us humans face through out life. People like you, assuming that it is bothersome and un-natural are the problem..that is why so many people are in therapy today. Have a good day.
