Why can't I stop crying even though I want to?

You may have depression seek a therapist they may be able to help you sort through your emotions. May be something has happen to trigger this on set.

Being overcome by emotions, you simply lack the ability to hold the emotions in any longer. It is said that anger and crying are much the same emotion being emoted except, especially for males, the anger is more accepted. For me, personally, I think this is a shame because frankly there is nothing more human and more therapeutic at times than a good cry regardless of gender. Nevertheless, if you have been driven to tears, it may be time to grab a 7cups listener and have a good talk about the issue that has driven you to such a state.

sometimes its hard to stop if there is something that is bring you down such as heartbreak, bullying or just a bad day. Best thing to do is take a deep breath

sometimes the body knows you need to continue to let it out, and that's okay. you should cry as much as you need to.

If you are stressed out over something or have PTSD that could be the base of why you cannot stop crying.
