Oh Gracie, I am so sorry.
But just to reiterate what everyone here has said, I seriously seriously doubt that anyone was thinking anything bad about your tears.
You can't expect yourself to hold it together and be an actress all the time, regardless of whether you're at work or not. I was told by a boss once to 'leave it at the door' and I had certainly been trying, but it's just not possible all the time. Some days we're able to put it aside and focus on something else, other days it boils over and we can't prevent that from happening.
But, so what? I'm sure that most people have had that kind of experience at one point or another. You are human, and you are allowed to feel bad and to cry.
I wish you didn't feel bad and weren't going through so much pain. But you are strong, Gracie. Look at how much support you give us on this board? You will get through this.
Much love to you.
Penny
