Why don't I ever cry anymore? I've been through alot in the past year and it's definitely made me stronger, but even when I wanna cry, I just cant. There's this video on youtube, whenever I used to watch it I'd bawl my eyes out. My friend turned it on and I shed 3 tears...Im still the same person I was but is this a problem or just normal?
 
as far as the video, you've gotten use to it; it's desensitivity by familiarity. As far as not crying anymore, you can look at it as maturity, or maybe gotten use to how life is and its ups and downs, or maybe you have a more optimistic view of life, or maybe you've just gotten colder/more hard-hearted. For your happiness' sake, I hope it's one of the first three.
 
Yes, this is normal. When we are first effected, we react strongly..but we inure ourselves to what we have seen. Use your deep compassion for real people, not youtube videos....get out of the house, take a look around and you will find those who need your help...helping others is the best cure for your condition. Please act now.
 
I think it is normal. You know the old saying 'what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger'. I know I don't cry like I used to. So I tell myself that I've cried so much and I don't have any more tears to cry. So maybe you not crying is your mind telling you that need a break from sad things. exspecially if the past year wasn't kind for you.
BUT, On the other hand it couldn't hurt to call or visit your family doctor to be sure. You know the other old saying 'Better Safe then Sorry'.
