I’ve had this problem my whole life and I’ve met a few others with it too, but none of us know why. We all have no problem crying under certain circumstances (anxiety attacks for me), but sometimes when we’re about to cry at a certain stimulus, something clicks and the feeling just vanishes, even if we want to cry. Is it just a personality thing or is this a known phenomenon with a name or something?
Sorry, didn’t know where else to ask. Google just brought up reasons you can’t stop crying, the opposite problem.
In: Biology
I notice what makes me stop crying right before I’m about to is my logic. There are certain ways of looking at a sad topic and some ways make me cry while others dont. (Yes this is confusing). I think about things that make me sad and that makes me about to cry, but then in that split second i suddenly tell myself, you’re sad because of this and not this and then that logic doesnt make me cry anymore.
