The Crying Club was born out of a sacred social work ritual: crying instead of doing our actual work. Created by two passionate (and emotionally exhausted) social workers, this platform is our slightly dramatic, mostly satirical, very heartfelt way of celebrating the healing power of storytelling. We’re here to offer a safe space to feel your feelings, overshare on purpose, and ugly cry with strangers on the internet. Join us in avoiding productivity—one tear at a time.
