Early Days - Can't stop crying

So sorry for your loss yogitree. Slices of cucumber are cooling and soothing.

So sorry 💐💐
Would try eye gel drops which will moisturise your eyes more effectively than other drops.
Sending hugs 🤗

Liz Earle’s “Eyebright” is a great moisturiser for tired, stinging eyes.
Sending a big hug 😊

Optrex do a soothing eye spray its really good and i keep a bottle in my handbag. please though let the tears come so you can heal God bless

Thinking of you 💕

It’s a horrible time and many of us have suffered this way. I wouldn’t worry too much about your tears, they are natural. If they irritate your skin I find that the ointment you use for eye infections works (named chlorsig here ) We can get it at the chemists. It is good for treating conjunctivitis. (hugs)

Put 2 teaspoons in the fridge for a few hours. Then lie down and put them over your eyes. Otherwise, try cold damp (not wet) teabags. hugs

This might sound peculiar, but I find that tears of happiness are easier to control and less hard on the eyes than tears of sadness. So I try to think more of the happy and positive times and less of the loss.

I find petroleum jelly/Vaseline smeared on the eyelids and skin around the eyes is a good waterproofer against tears or watery eyes.
I used it earlier this year when severe hayfever left me with peeling, cracking and bleeding eyelids. It was the only thing that helped.

And yes it is debilitating. You don't need it at this time xx

I'n so sorry and I don't want to be horribly insensitive but it is a healthy thing sometimes.

Could you ask your doctor or an optician?

I'm so sorry for your loss, I'd say let the tears fall, it's better than holding it in,perhaps a cold cloth held over your eyes will bring some comfort.

I too am very sorry for your loss, and clearly remember my (almost) hysterical bouts of crying when my husband died.

We all tackle grief in our own way, and should do so, but I found it helpful to get on with practical things, sorting my husband's clothes, putting aside personal possessions for our son, going through papers for probate, and in between practical tasks allowing myself to cry.

This may not work for you.

Any bland oinment applied under your eyes and on your cheeks shouldl help the discomfort from weeping, and a mild saline solution to bathe your eyes with ought to help too.
