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.

Yeah I’m quite curious about this too. I haven’t cried for damn near 10 years now. When I see something really sad, I would want to cry but at most my eyes gets a bit teary and that’s about it. I have never gotten closed to crying for myself since I was a kid probably 15 years ago. Idk if it’s cause of the social norm that “guys shouldn’t cry” so my subconscious is stopping myself but I really don’t know. Kinda worried it might just hit me all at once one day.
