Unable to cry ?

It seems like years i that i have been unable to cry, it worries me deeply, cause i have alot of emotional pain. Im aware that crying is the CNS and Brain's excreatory function as it releases neuro toxens and other bad chemicals from the Brain and CNS. But having been unable to cry since i was 11 concerns me no end. Every now and then for no apparent reason when lying down on my side i release a single tear but thats it. Im lucky if i can cry once in 2 years. Is this related to my aspergers syndrome ? Being an Adult Baby i need, i want to beable to cry, its important to me to be able to cry. (As an Adult Baby I am emotional psycological only non sexual. Infantilism in general is unrelated to pedophiles) Could not being able to cry be related to epilepsy ? or to astigmatisim ? Its not just a case of its this normal on this i need help trying to solve this i need to be able to cry. Can anyone help me on this?

    This may sound silly but I'd like you to run a self diagnostic test. Pluck a nose hair. One that is firmly rooted. If it doesn't cause your eye to tear it's probable you have a phsysiological problem, rather than an emotional one. Well keep us updated and good luck.

    but what about the neuro toxins that crying realeses? crying is the excretory function for the brain and central nervous system. Could the my recent deteriating memory (since january this year) be related to build up of neuro toxens from lack of crying? And as an Adult baby how am i goiing to show that i want something, or need something or discomfort if i cant cry? babys cant talk you know, and crying is much more effective. And it would be practical for me anyway since when i talk or type i always say the wrong things, or say things the wrong way or at the wrong time and thats because everyone with Aspergers Syndrome and other mild ASD's has difficulty with comunication skills. While i may have great vocabulary half the time i never know how to use it appropiatly with the correct timing or in the correct situation. Since im an AB (abriviation for Adult Baby) it really wouldent bother me at all switching over to crying as my primary comunication method, it would be more efficient, and i would enjoy it. But i still cant cry. and it makes me sad.

    That shouldn't wory you, if you still get upset inside it doesn't matter if you don't realse some tears. I've actually been wondering why people cry, I mean, I cry at a lot of things, but don't you find it strange? Why DO people cry?

    I used to be unable to cry too. Now I cry all the time. :/ It could be dehydration? Try drinking more water? I have Asperger's syndrome too! :) But I don't think it could affect your ability to cry...

    no i havent seen the doctor about it yet since he thinks im a hyperchondriact, because im convinced i either have Bi Poler or Cyclothimea, since im already diagnosed with reactive depreshion, i get depressed roughly 4 times in a week and there is no telling how long each session lasts, when im happy im like someone on speed and extasy combined without all the excess energy, but since i drink alot of cafine when im happy, im ushually dancing around like it anyway. though i dont understand finance, or have any income or because im not alowed to work ork because of DLA my mum handles my benifits. but still i am obsessed with shoping to the point of OCD. im 22 and i have been suicidel rougly 43 times, attempted it 21 times, been in St Anns psych hospital 4 times. (i got pretty good at avoiding that place after the first time there when i was 7) Still i spent christmas last year there, and got out of there on new years day, was placed in Bed in breakfast, wich was payed for by the hospital trust, social services and then i was placed in supported living, i got out of there in june and only this monthhave i been declared officialy relised from supported living. life sucks dont it. But its because My GP thinks that im a hyperchondriact that i know he will think im being a hyperchondriact if i go to him about this, if he cant recognise the symptoms of Bi poler or cyclothimea how is he going to know whats stoping me from being able to cry. I been with this doctor for 20 years, my Mum would through a hissy fit if i were to switch doctors,
