Weeping

How many times have you cried? And how much have you cried? I've had a lot of people say that we cry for attention, but isn't that kind of the point? WIthout attention, we can't get help. Though, i can't blame them. How are we supposed to make sure which cries are real or not? I don't want them to think i'm pretending to cry. The things i'm going through are in fact real.
