is withdrawn, or the dose is lowered. I’ve seen this numerous times over the years with my own patients.
One patient, “Tammy,” a woman in her early 60s taking a serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor, was unable to cry while going through a painful and battling cancer. When we reduced the dosage of her medication, however, the tears flowed freely, much to her relief.This is counterintuitive and perplexing. Doesn’t being depressed mean crying more rather than less? It turns out that some patients with Major Depressive Disorder report feelings of emptiness rather than sadness.
Association mentions melancholia as a subtype of Major Depressive Disorder and lists “empty mood” as a symptom.This is less likely to be the culprit than some of the other reasons. While not common, there are a few medical conditions that can inhibit tear production. The autoimmune disorder Sjogren’s Syndrome causes dry eyes and can block the production of tears.
The good news is that many, if not most, of these conditions are treatable. If you are frustrated by an inability to cry, it’s important to seek treatment from a medical or mental health professional who can help you explore the reasons for your lack of tears and guide you towards a resolution.
