I never used to cry, but I started seeing my T and had a crisis where I called him and I was already crying, and was still crying by the time I got to see him soon after. I'm not sure it's possible to force yourself to cry.
Were you able to cry when you were little?

Able to cry on my own now, but not in front of others and was not able to cry as a child.
Nothing much happens in the moment when I shut down, but generally after the session I feel the full extent of it and struggle to cope through the fact that I once again shut down.
