For those two years I could not cry, not once. I know that sounds harsh but I shut myself down in order to help her. To get others to leave her alone and so on, and to be more doting on her. During the time of being "shut down" I was told to stop being so cold, and for the classic terms I really did not give a damn what others thought. My mom appreciated however and she tells me even five years later that she needed someone to balance her out.
So all in all I cry but it is on rare occasions that do not seem so important to life. Ironic eh? lol Such as movies, fanfiction and so on.
In some what you story sound almost like me. Not the same me though. No one die, but inside me felt that he did. I did not choose to stop crying or want to. It won't come even when I watch sad movie that suppose to cry or force myself to. Something happen to me. I felt nothing. Not even saddest. Just empty shell. Like a dead body moving on it own. When I try to smile, it hurt. Even it does hurt. I did not cry.
