| | Tears - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Most mammals will produce tears in response to extreme pain or other stimuli, but crying as an emotional reaction is considered by many to be a uniquely human phenomenon, possibly due to humans' advanced self-awareness. | | | In humans, emotional tears can be accompanied by reddening of the face and sobbing — cough-like, convulsive breathing, sometimes involving spasms of the whole upper body. | | | The word lacrimation may also be used in a medical or literary sense to refer to crying. |

| | Morgan has suggested that the source of control for psychogenic tearing is important to her theory, but this is based on her mistaken idea that human emotional tearing is a characteristic shared by aquatic animals and no other animals. | | | Frey's work demonstrates that emotional tears do serve an excretory function, and Morgan claims that the original function of emotional tears was the elimination of salt. | | | She claims that emotional tears are shed by humans, aquatic animals, and Indian elephants, and by no other animals. |

| | The Truth About Tears - Part Three |
| | To teach their clients to release tears, some grief counselors recommend deliberately recalling a memory by going to a specific place or finding something that belonged to the person that died. | | | Anthony Tinn suggests that persons may be able to reclaim their ability to cry by (I) actively challenging the old cliches about why one should not cry, (2) expressing feelings associated with the need to cry, and (3) being with someone who is comfortable with crying when crying is appropriate. | | | However, it is difficult to feel very sad or hurt without crying, and we soon learn that it is easier not to cry if we do not allow ourselves to feel strongly in the first place. |

| | Tears are messy: crying produces swollen eyelids, smeared mascara, pinkish snotty noses, splotchy complexion etc. The veil of tears clouds our vision: we can’t “really” see. | | | Following our individual trail of tears, allowing feelings to bubble up into consciousness, is the only chance we have of avoiding the destructive, shadowy aspect of emotions. | | | Pain and joy were united in a peak experience, life was whole, and tears and laughter could create an emotional rainbow for one fleeting moment. |
