Just so you know, you are not alone about learning not to cry, I too struggle to cry now. I had to “take care of business” being the main caregiver thru my husband’s years long chronic illnesses & decline into hospice & death. Now my elderly Mother lives with me & she & her generation were the ones that didn’t do feelings or crying, so that is the beginning of where I learned it. Thank you for sharing your thought about built up tears lead to anxiety, that is a big aha for me. Blessings as we journey on 🦋

I also wasn't allowed to cry as a child. I experienced additional family estrangement 17 years ago in my mid fifties, cried uncontrollably all night, & haven't been able to cry since, despite wanting & desperately needing to. I feel it in my chest area, but just can't get a tear. 💧 😥

"Stop that (crying), or I'll give you something to cry about!!" Being beaten or otherwise injured was not an acceptable reason to cry, yet mother or father would cry & I was expected to soothe them to make it better as they cried on & on. I'm going to join the group. I've tried sad movies, had additional losses... No relieving tears. 😕

I want to cry but am unable to. Nothing touches me enough to cry real tears. I lost a lovely friend this year, she was only 34, and when I attended the funeral I had tears in my eyes but the grief wouldn't come out of me, it was just a few tears that barely fell. Watching her parents grief was so traumatic and I felt so much for them, I wanted to comfort them , my heart was wrenching so much I felt physical pain, but for me personally I just could not show that emotion. Even alone that evening there was nothing. I felt/feel dead inside. Nothing touches me anymore and cannot understand it. Over the past two years I have lost two close friends ( 34 and 66 years old), my uncle and an acquaintance, my sons friend who died this summer aged 29. I feel the grief so deeply and struggle with their loss but the tears of release and relief never come.

When you're sitting in the pain of depression, you can't cry. Only after hours and hours of having to sit in the psychological and physical pain of depression grief, a release to crying might finally come and set you free only for a moment. Then the pain comes back.

I believe we cannot cry (when there is deep grief) because there is just too much pain. We become the pain, the pain blocks our energy from naturally flowing. It's hard.to heal if your life does not provide you enough comfort. You can try to do things that you love, look to surround yourself with good people but if the pain or grief is too big it will not ease you enough. So what i do is, i lay down on my bed close my eyes and look within. I feel the pain, stuck in my body and I thank God for the pain and my suffering. This creates space and I start to cry. Or you meditate and become very silent, after a while i will start to cry too. The pain was just stuck too deep inside of you and it needed attentions, awareness. In this harsh modern society nobody gives attentiob to the pain of others so we are stuck with it alone Everyone seems to be scared of negative emotions as if it is contagious.. people seem not to have the strength anymore to carry one another. They run after the most confident and positive people to lift themselves. Understandable but it's a sign of an unhappy society! And that with all our comfort and wealth. What happened to us? Aren't we more devided and judgemental than ever? Aren't we more selfish and suspicious than ever? We need a strong community to thrive and to be happy. We sacrificied all that for a comfortable life with fancy car, clothes and/or house. But... we are not fulfilled. We live from a space of lack not from a place of abundance. We became needy and dependent instead of inspirational in our shining uniqueness.

I lost my grandfather 7 years ago, I was unable to cry. I knew from that moment that my brain was hardwired to keep moving and to be strong so that no one questions what’s wrong with me. I could never put into words the level of pain or emotion I’ve felt in the past, so I would tell them “nothing” and cry behind closed doors. Now, as a 26 year old, I can’t even cry during a breakup. I’m just so used to doing things on my own that I’m not able to show any emotion. That’s a big issue with relationships of mine, and now I’m labeled as “cold hearted” that’s not true but nobody understands it except for everyone on this channel

I think I'm in a state of emotionally numbness. It's been that way for years but has gotten worse because my Aunty died. It's been a week and I still think she's going to come back. I was in foster care and she would sometimes visit me, no other family members would. Anyway when I was 13 she took me and my 12 brother in. At her funeral I didn't cry. Only with closed doors I did but not for long. Even when she was on her bed in pain she looked over to me and and asked me if I was okay. I didn't say anything, I didn't have to the words. I'm so sorry I didn't talk to you Auntie, my chance to tell you how much I love you is gone.

I don’t recall ever being told not to cry. I remember my mother comforting me and telling me not to cry, not because it was not right, but because she didn’t want to see me sad. My husband died in February 2023. Easter was our first family gathering. I sat down at the table with a huge lump in my throat with the realization that this was the first time without him by my side. My brother in law raised a glass in his memory. I dissolved in a puddle of tears. My family was so supportive. Lord it sometimes hurts like hell.

I can't cry or show emotions of stress or weakness in front of the others. Once I am alone with my thoughts, tears just come out. Just yesterday I went out to get some fresh air, and was thinking to myself. I was trying to find the source of the freezing in my mind and heart despite the recent accident that my mother had. Then the tears started coming out. It was a brief but deeply felt crying session. Luckily it was sunny and I was wearing glasses, so it didn't look awkward at all.

Im still grieving, intense busy mind, or exhaustion, anger all get the jump on me but the tears have been few. I have to keep it together for my parents, at least that is what my mind seems to be set on. So, it goes, in this world of grieving there is connection to you all here, thank you everyone and Jo for sharing.

This video is much needed for me. Merry go Round of Tears. The years of illness, decline & then death of my husband forced me to handle everything by myself, since I have no local family, I handled the doctors, hospitals, treatment plans, the bills etc all while working. I had to suck it up & force my emotions into my toes to get it all done, to listen & receive information & be professional at work. Tears were saved for the shower (seems lots of us cry in the shower) my family of origin didn’t accept tears or “do” feelings, so I got very used to delaying my emotions & feelings. The result is I don’t cry much when you would think I would, so family & friends think I am ok & handling everything as usual with strength or think of me as the Ice Queen Warrior. So confusing & off putting for them when I call & I am a tearful puddle, so the result of that is I get pushed away into the avoidance corner. As always, I appreciate the comments here & your videos that help me untangle this ball of grief. Blessings as we journey on…

Thank you thank you so much. Yesterday I lost my childhood dog, and I am currently away at college so I couldn't say a proper goodbye. I cried really hard after receiving news that he had a tumor and was bleeding internally and dying, and then I cried really hard after my mom ended the facetime call right after he was euthanized. But even right after the call I only cried real tears for a moment and then it was like I went numb and cold, then for the rest of the day there was this deep emptiness and weight in my chest. I sat for at least 10 minutes in my chair after the call ended, just staring and spacing out, disconnecting almost or dissassociating. I've been struggling to cry today no matter how much I try to or begin to and it confused me because my dog meant the world to me and losing him really hurts, and the grief I feel for him also feels like the grief I felt when I lost my grandma to cancer a few years ago. Every time I begin to cry it's like my brain shuts it down and I just stop. It's the strangest thing but I think you're right in that my brain is trying to protect me. I also grew up in one of those households where I wasn't allowed to cry or at least not audibly. I find that most times I don't know how to cry or truly audibly weep, except when I am experiencing extreme sadness in a moment like when losing a loved one.

Sadly if it's not a sad cartoon I can't cry.

I thought I was supposed to cry at the passing of my mother. But I do know it's silently still hurting me. I feel blank, like everything in me is on pause. In short I feel stuck. Crying for a movie or cartoon doesn't suffice for the initial pain. Any thoughts?

I lost my mother four months ago, and I haven't shed a tear since her passing. When she was dying, I did cry, but it felt like I was forcing it because everyone else was crying, and I didn't want to seem heartless. I loved my mom deeply. Whenever my dad and I argued, she was the one I turned to for comfort. I don't think it's because I lack empathy, as I cry easily over small things like a touching dog video or a sad song. But when my mom passed away, I couldn't cry genuinely, and it's left me questioning if I truly love her. Despite this confusion, I know deep down that I love her. It's hard to imagine not caring for someone who has been there for me my whole life. So why can't I feel sad? Why can't I cry?

This has always caused me so much guilt. I tend to be someone who’s very sensitive, I can find myself getting very emotional over the smallest things. Yet, when it comes to grief, I was just shocked and didn’t know what to do. When my grandma passed away initially I didn’t cry, I just was silent and when people at school tried to approach me I pretended I was feeling ill, until I admitted that she’d passed away and suddenly I sobbed for almost 2 solid hours. I also cried at her funeral, but not much aside from that. Sometimes I become very stressed. Why did I cry so little and feel so numb? I really loved my grandma, so why can’t I feel? What is wrong with me? She passed away almost four years ago, and I still think of this so often. This video did help, thank you.

I started seeing a therapist and told her my biggest complaint is my brain doesn't function very well anymore... I can't trust my brain or thought processes for fear of screwing everything up. Having not cried heavily she said I have an emotional log jam and I need to cry in order for my brain to start functioning again. She said my brain is trying to process my grief and I'm not helping it by not crying. It's hard for me to cry I usually only get a few tears. Grew up in a household where I never saw anybody cry.

As a child, I learnt early on to supress my emotions especially crying. I remember feeling a lump in my throat and always supressing the urge. Now was an adult, I find it really hard to cry. I can't shed more than 2 years if I force myself, I end up feeling depleted than better. Also, thanks to the inner child healing job that I'm doing...I can kind of shed more than a few tears now yet just as I began crying ..I start to feel dizzy almost in a panic attack state. It's scary. The heart beat slows down and not a good feeling overall. Should I just stop crying altogether. What do you think?

I’ve always felt tears to be shameful and it has just been engraved in me not to cry when it’s gotten to a point when I want to cry to make myself feel better I’m stuck feeling sad and can’t cry even when my grandpa died when I was a kid I didn’t cry. Does anyone know a solution?

I have always had the will to cry but never been able to get my tears out I feel it in my chest and it hurts and always noticed that i dont show sad emotions infront of people if it was something related to me It feels like something is wrong with me it hurts i dont know Ive always thought that tears aren’t a measurement of sadness because im always so sad but instead of crying i show a happy smile Not that i want that i know its wrong to keep it in and i try to cry alot but it just doesn’t flow and it keeps squeezing my heart instead

I was always a crybaby. I would cry over anything and everything - happy news or sad news and I would cry but I lost my Husband 25th April and with five weeks had to have both my elderly dogs pts. If I bump into anyone I laugh and say I am fine. I fall apart in private but I mean that is cannot function. I cannot cry at all. It's as if I am drowning in tears inside that come into my eyes but then stop.

Same for me. I have always been crying for everything. Arguing with my dad, going late with homework, not being ready for a phisics test etc. But when i just received the news my mother's aunt is going to die i Simplyy cant feel I'm going to cry, it doesn't even seem true

lost my grandfather and I never cried, I often wonder why I didn’t and why the tears haven’t come yet. I feel hypocritical cause I cry at everything (I’m oversensitive) but didn’t cry at that.

Thank you for your kind words. My skills are clearly lacking in the tech department! The recoding levels are my early learning curve mistakes...to change them once posted would be hours of editing.. 😒 I have placed closed captions on some of them to compensate. I hope to get better at this! 🙏

In life men well tell boys, men don't cry, and then we grow up getting hurt and let's be honest the pain a man feels from a woman hurts more than anything physical, and that pain we are never taught how to handle, but to accept, swallow it, shit talk and move forward. The level of pain differs for everyone, but when you are a male that learns its not okay to cry until decades often he's learned to build the wall of understanding and not showing, it starts to blow my mind when I notice so many emotionally damaged men that carry the weight in silence until they do something outrageous, THEN society labels them crazy or unfit to be in society, but I notice, those that grew up able to express when necessary, and not because it was forced, really do have better handles on their relationships. I am of the damaged generation 80's babies where crying was not allowed unless you were getting your ass whooped for something.

I don't really know what this condition of mine is named as..But as I know I've not been able to cry since my childhood days.Its not that I don't feel but it's just that my feelings of grief is so deep inside that it suffocates me.. and many a times I'm not able to breathe and it hurts so bad.I'm 21 years old but the number of times I've cried can be counted i guess that might be 3 to 4 times since I was around 9 years old..I feel for every little things happiness, sadness,grief but all my emotions gets pilled up and I can't cry even though I want to.I don't know what's wrong with me
