Don't get me wrong, I do cry. But lately I've been under a lot of stress and hard times and have found it to be increasingly difficult to cry naturally. Instead, I kinda have to force it since crying is my only way of relief.
I was like that for a few years, I call it numbing out. I think its a coping mechanism & it hapoens at least for me...when Im either very emotionally stressed or have been extremely emotionally hurt. Its only in times of my life where Ive been overwhelmed. Im not sure of the physical reason why the body does it, or if its only mental/emotional.
I have the same problem. It's gotten worse as I have gotten older. Watch a movie like the Notebook, that should work!
i feel it is normal. i have been to this point as well. where the only tears i can manage to produce is from my eyes watering due to allergies.
I didn't even cry at my friends funeral who died from kidney failure it bothers me I think I'm cold hearted and I also like being extremely mean to people to see their reactions.
That fucking sucks I have the same problem I can't cry to save my life my dad would beat me and call me a girl if I cried so I haven't for 15 years and I wish I could I really do because I feel a tight pain in my jaw and neck when I wanna cry but it won't come out!
that used to happen to me 2 ! And i was glad that it happened to me ..beause now i cry myself asleep every night and then i say to myself "i wish i that my eyes reacted the same way it did a few years ago" you should be glad ! :D
me too. it's like i forgot how too. sad movies don't work. i mean i feel like crying but no tears...
I went through a stage of not allowing myself to cry and now it just doesn't come naturally. Try not to worry too much, in a situtation where you are devestated (though I hope you don't encounter one) your body will over-ride whatever it's doing and allow you to cry i'm sure.
