Why do tears come when there is no reason for them?

    Tears flow from our eyes when we cry because they contain chemicals and hormones produced by our bodies.

    When we become upset, our brains and bodies overreact and work overtime by producing chemicals and hormones.

    Crying helps eliminate these extra chemicals that we don't need.

    The chemicals and hormones disappear from our body through the form of tears. As our tears flow, they sooth our sadness or distress by withdrawing these chemical agents.

    That is why many people feel calmer or more refreshed after crying--because the tears get rid of these hormones that are produced when we are sad, happy, or distressed.

    I've always heard that people feel better after crying, nice to have a scientific explanation for it.

    I'm that way too, a lot. It seems that at times, when I don't really have a reason for crying, I cry, but when I have a reason and should be crying, then I can't.

    not being able to cry is awful! I mean, you feel awful inside and it's like you're being crushed because you can't get your feelings out. Sometimes I cry over things that aren't that important, but things that mean a lot I never cry. When my first girlfriend dumped me (and first love and all that) I just laughed...

    Hope you're ok hun :)

    I did this at the end of my driving lesson the other day, and was like, how embarrassing and tragic. I still felt better after though. I think I made my instructor feel guilty!

    I had a good cry the other day. I need to cry, cause it is just too much emotion that bottles up. If it doesn't come out..well..I burst anyways..so I suppose it does come out. :\
