| I can't cry anymore.
I don't know what's wrong with me but I can't cry anymore.
Does anyone else have this problem???? |

| Yep, I know exactly what you're talking about. It's extremely frustrating for me, because I'd love to be able to just cry away some of the pain. Worse yet, sometimes I get so close that there are literally tears in my eyes, and then they just fade away. I think for me, it because I've become so desensitized to life, so used to all the pain and hurt, that my body just refuses to let tears come. Hope that helps. |

| That is so depressing. Whats worse what you said makes total sense in my life. I've just recently figured out why I SI... I'm punishing myself. So yeah makes senses... |

| I do have that and sometimes when I'm on the brink of crying I stop myself because I actually feel as if i 'want' to cry...
Then I do have this weird thing where I can sometimes occasionally cry over RLY random and small things |

Location: New Orleans | The desensitization thing strikes a chord with me. I really wish I could cry, it would help so much. Yet I couldn't even shed a tear at my dad's funeral. |

    Location: England | I feel like tha i get to this point were i'm completely numb and can't feel anythin until i start si, its really scary wen i jus can't cry. But maybe its because thes only so much pain you can feel at once until you'remind jus blocks every emotion |

Location: UK | I used to cry loads....now I just can't, no matter how much I want to. I can even feel the heaviness of when crying is about to happen, but it doesn't. I miss crying though. I can still cry at sad movies and books, and for other people, but not for myself, and the effect it has on me is different. |

   Location: lost in my head | I cant cry either, all the emotions are there to cry but no tears ever come. I saw the aftermath of someone who had walked under a train and still no tears but i have ever felt so sad inside. |

| I can't cry anymore either...it can be a very good thing for me, my dad always calls me a baby when I cry and to suck up and be better...but I miss it. Idk, I guess I've kindof "trained" myself to feel numb instead of cry. And I hate feeling numb, so then I go cut....messed up, I know... |

      Location: Scotland | I go through phases. I can go for weeks/months and cry so easily at any tiny thing, and then I can suddenly switch and go weeks/months where you could do something so god-awful and I'd try to cry at it but no tears would appear. I hate when I'm going through those phases. Especially when I'm trying not to cut so much, crying is so good for releasing some pent up emotions, but it's just physically impossible :/ still never found out why, and nobody ever believes me when I tell them. |

| I got my tears back! Apparently the death of one of my kitties and the blame that comes with it is enough to bring them back to me. Fuck, I really hate stuff at the moment... |

| Aw, I'm terribly sorry about your cat hun, but I'm glad you got your tears back. It's good to cry sometimes. I personally haven't cried in nearly 4 years and I'm not sure why. I've had many bad things happen to me over the years, but I haven't shed a single tear. I'm not sure what's wrong with me either. |

Location: new orleans | as if the issue or emotion is getting ahead of you and none or too many the tears just have a mind of their own... talking about anything is good, talking about crying shouldn't be confused with the concept of that being all there is to talk about... tears get taken for granted, just like suicide gets put in the corner... nothing wrong with the words but developing your own dialogue helps in distinctly being the way you want to be, knowing who that is
