it's ok to Cry

Today I play a little bit of my Minecraft world while talking about why it is so important to let yourself cry, crying is ok, it's how we heal, and I think the strongest men are the ones who cry it out.

@@YertaYaps it was a very comforting video to hear afterwards

[@Squeegeeeeeeeeeeee]

As a woman, THANK YOU for being someone who is okay with this and for spreading this information. The things men and women of older generations teach the kids can be so toxic. Crying doesn’t make you some wussy baby. It’s a God given thing that every single human does. I love this one. There are many kids and teens without someone in their life to give this type of advice. Keep being amazing. 🫶🏻 (Also I’m just gonna say that this is the 500th video I’ve liked on KZbin 😂)

[@YertaYaps]

Thank you for saying that! I appreciate you Squeegee! Speaking straight facts! Also I’m honored to be your 500th video like lol

When i read over the script you sent me it actually almost made me cry lol, dw my mental state is alright (i think idk), but yeah its just insane that people normalize the idea that men cant cry and it makes them weak, ive seen some videos where women would dump men that cry, but yeah GREAT video i liked it ALOT

02:50 is where it all hit me I have a dad but he wasn’t present for 16 years and Now thank to this video I feel like, even if it’s just a tiny bit, I’m alittle closer to Being able to let myself finally embrace my emotions again and cry. I just want to say thank you Really for this video I found it by accident but It’s actually one of the few accidents that I’m happy happened.Hearing you talk about how you were in touch with your emotions when you were little then grew to hide them and had your role model tell you it’s ok to cry and be emotional. Thank you again for sharing this with everyone. For so long I was told by my Mom and Siblings “I shouldnt be crying” or “Boys don’t cry” or “stop being a little girl/baby with your crying” For so long it hurt so much that I trusted them with being people who I could go to and express myself when I was a kid but now I feel empty like There’s nothing inside of me anymore. But this video and you repeating It’s ok constantly throughout the video was getting to me more and more you talked and I immediately got a huge wave of pressure in my chest, funnily enough that around when you had mentioned if you feel like crying just to let it happen and that Me crying doesn’t make me any less of a man. I know that wasn’t directed at me in specific but the amount of care and safety in your voice, having someone say that that it’s ok to feel my emotions. Having that be said to me for the first time in this comforting way really means a lot Thank you truly from the bottom of my heart

[@YertaYaps]

@@asriel3564 I am so happy you found my video, thank you so much for this comment, I know I don’t personally know you, but I KNEW when I made this video, people would need to hear it, I’m so sorry you dont have a Dad that is present, I personally think that having a good relationship with my dad is so crucial for everything, and my heart goes out to those who don’t have that, that’s partly why I made this video, was so that for those who don’t have a Dad to say “it’s ok to cry” then maybe I could say it to them instead. I may just be a voice that plays Minecraft, but I’m glad you were able to hear me and comment this! You are Amazing, don’t ever forget that!

[@YertaYaps]

Thank you lilwte!

[@PixelaGames2000]

As a woman who is very much Stoic, reserved, and somewhat shy and quiet, I don’t express my emotions very much. I don’t cry unless something truly breaks me, which doesn’t happen very often. I wasn’t pressured to be like this, this is just the way I am wired. So trust me when I say this…Crying and showing emotions does not make you weak or any less of a man, it just means you’re human.

[@YertaYaps]

Exactly! We’re all human, and I agree that some people feel the need to cry less than others, but I know that we all have the feeling, it just stinks when a lot of us suppress it, thank you for the comment Pixel!

[@guhh-huh]

my dad doesn't want me to cry, not because he doesn't want to see me sad, but because it's "childish". and then I slowly stopped caring about myself emotionally.

[@YertaYaps]

I’m really sorry to hear this, not all Dad’s will feel the same about showing emotion, like I said in the video I think society expects men to be too “manly” and tough too much, there is definitely a time to be strong and push yourself, but I also think taking the time to let go and cry is a really good thing ya know? Completely up to you though

[@PKpanzerkrieger]

Thank you for this video. I just meditated for 2 hours ...

[@YertaYaps]

I actually havent tried meditation, but I honestly would love to try it!

[@zdunio5452]

It is important to know how to open up. Personally, I don't feel the need to cry that much these times. There's nothing wrong with opening up, and IT IS IMPORTANT even to someone who is in charge of something. But also remember, as it is nothing wrong with crying, there's also nothing wrong with handling a situation without any tear on your face. Indeed, it is a virtue to pursue handling difficulties and do not feel need to cry. I learned that a hard way. We need a good balance between the two.

[@YertaYaps]

Oh yeah for sure, I completely agree with your point, theres a time to push through the pain and get it done, but after it’s said and done it is always ok to feel that sadness and emotion and let it out! Thank you for the comment!

[@diamond_tango]

[@franklyfrancis3462]

It’s strange- yesterday, I was playing MineCraft, and I was fixing a hole that had been blown in a project I was working on by a creeper, and, just after I finished, in true sitcom fashion, another creeper fell on top of me and destroyed it anew. It seems silly, but that small setback forced me put my phone down and cry for a long time. A lot has been happening in my life as of late, and I’m dealing with some serious internal conflict that’s just been festering inside of me, with no real outlet for me to channel it into. And, as ridiculous as it seems, crying over that creeper really did help. I felt a lot better having been able to release all that fear and tension I’d been holding in me for weeks, even if it was over something small. So it’s a beautiful coincidence that, while scrolling on KZbin tonight, desperately trying to avoid my anxious thoughts, I come across a video, with a thumbnail of a creeper, and a simple, poignant caption; “it’s okay to cry.” I don’t know you, but I needed this. So thank you.

[@YertaYaps]

Oh my gosh thank you so much for this comment, I’m really glad you found my video, because I honestly believe it’s true, it really is ok to cry because it helps so much, thank you for saying this! I hope things get better, but just know, sometimes a good cry can help the pain go away

[@BeauWilson-ic8ni]

Man this video makes me feel normal cuz i used to cry a bunch in my life. I tried to hide i from my parents because i was neavous to let my dad know how emotional i was. My dad was raised on a farm and hes real tough so i thought if i was to cry infront of him he would be disappointed.(Sorry for the very long comment)

[@YertaYaps]

Don’t apologize bro! I’m glad you were able to comment this, heres an idea, what if you just talk to your parents about how you feel? All the things that are stressing you out, just have a good talk with them if you want, you might not even need to cry, but if you feel like you want to, don’t stifle it! I’m sure your parents love you so it would end up okay im sure!

I don't know if anyone shares anything like me...... My parents told me that it's ok to cry as a kid. But they just forced me not to, whenever I felt like sharing my pain, they just replied with the worst possible, telling me to be a man and it all doesn't matter anymore. I know that's their way of surviving through pain, but after several attempts as a kid, I never shared any pain with them, up to this point not even a damn thing with them. I just say "all good" now, and they believe it, even tho it is not true. I don't show my weakness to anyone now, especially after a breakup that I never recovered from, I simply can't, even if I wanted to.

[@YertaYaps]

I completely understand, even tho I opened up to my parents in this video, it doesnt mean opening up can have the same outcome, I’m sorry you cant trust them with your honest troubles, I feel like parents should be trusted more but nowadays it isnt always the case, so I’m so deeply sorry, maybe theres someone else you might trust to be able to get help with your troubles? If not I know that music can help a lot with trying to shed a tear or feel emotions more deeply, maybe try that? (Sorry it’s 4 am I hope this comment helps but I’m really tired so it might not come out as I hoped)

[@TheDevelopmentHive]

I thought this for a while. I used to suppress crying, all the time. I just wouldn't. What would people think of me? Would I actually be a man. One single thing... completely broke me. Now I know it's okay to cry. I'm 15. Can we stop this think where people say its "not manly" to cry? This stereotype that was created back in the 1900's?

[@YertaYaps]

I’m 100% in agreement on that bro! I’m tired of seeing the next generation suppressing their emotions because it’s a so called “sign of weakness” we’re humans, not animals, I think the strongest men are those who are able to let themselves cry and heal, truly heal through all that pain, but as a man you get up again, and get out there, theres a time to cry and a time to be tough, but you can’t just be tough 100% of the time, it doesnt work ya know?

Thia is a good point, if you do not trust your parents it might not be the best idea, idk how you might feel about this, but have you ever considered looking into christianity? I don’t want to push anything but all I’m saying is praying and just yapping to God helps me personally in so many ways, he’s always there for me and I believe that he has helped me so many times, this is just a little suggestion, I dont want to push anything, but it’s an idea!

[@ThatD1spynser]

@@YertaYaps I had been a Christian for a long part of my life. Not strict, but I believed and wished to do good to others. We were going to a family gathering. Before we went, I saw much tension in my family and anticipated that shit was going to go down. I am agnostic now, but I prayed for help, an unmistakeable sign, and for thanks. I am waiting to see the results on my mental well-being, although there is no immediate ones. Thank you for your suggestion, as it helps me find more understanding of my mind.

Get your shit together, be overfilled with a blinding rage that you fuel to show them you're not weak. Transform that fire into relentless determination, rise above every challenge, and let your success be the undeniable proof of your strength. Embrace every setback as a lesson, every doubt as motivation, and every failure as a step to greatness. You have the power within you to conquer, so go out there and make it happen. Stop whining on the internet, to friends, family. We have become brainwashed into thinking weakness is alright. It is not, moreover, it is shameful and pitiful.

[@YertaYaps]

I think crying is not a sign of Weakness, I think it’s a sign of healing yourself from the pain when you feel that you can’t conquer everything like some God, I appreciate the comment, but I think allowing ourselves to express our emotions is better than being called a “whiner” obviously you dont want to cry in front of people other than those most trusted, but acting like you’re stronger than your emotions is just incorrect

[@AntiCaesarReal]

Every warrior needs to rest. We are not machines set out solely to conquer. We feel and we love and we care. Fight for what you desire. But it's not weakness to understand who you are and what you feel.

[@YertaYaps]

@@AntiCaesarReal I honestly couldnt have said it better myself, thank you

[@MawdyDev]

It requires more courage to express yourself in a world that attacks you for doing so than to hide your pain and let it fester. When you let your pain spread and get worse because you refuse to process it properly, you're not "being strong for your loved ones," you're actively hurting them by weakening your own resolve. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" only applies when you recover from the disease. But if you let it fester and refuse to heal, you don't get stronger. You just die slowly, and miserably. Don't let that happen, and don't advise others to let that happen.

I think that's survivor bias, my dude. The dudes that are well-off enough to value their lives don't need to cry. The ones who have it genuinely rough don't survive long enough to pitch in to this argument, for the most part. That rising self-unaliving statistic among young men, remember?

[@CgVibin]

@@MawdyDev it's not Bias, we just have better pain receptors. And we're just better with dealing with emotional pain. Even if we just lock it away it's still better than letting it out and harming ourself.

[@YertaYaps]

@@CgVibin ok but Cg if you bottle it up for too long it is going to explode when you can’t control it, the point of the video was to let you know that crying in bed when you need to get that bottled up pain out is actually a good thing to do, I understand it sounds weird and different from the normal opinions of society, but bottling it up is gonna hurt you and others down the road, trust me, I know from experience
