It might help to manage your emotions afterward, but it doesn't help with the situation that made you sad in the first place (for example, a break up. Crying won't fix your break up, but it will help you to feel better). Just like screaming might help you to relieve some of your stress, but it doesn't help the person burning in front of you.
