ARE NO TEARS A BAD THING?

-

If you remain dry-eyed at even the saddest of times, you may be repressing emotions. “The stiff-upper-lip approach does us no favours,” says Dr

Touroni. “When we stuff our emotions down, they end up reappearin­g further down the line.”

If you feel like you need to cry but can’t, for whatever reason, that’s OK, adds Eve. “You don’t need to be openly upset to give yourself the support you could benefit from.”
