Im wanting to become an actress and I pretty much have every else down, except for fake crying. I just don't know how to make myself tear up. And I have already tried thinking of things, like love ones dying, that sort of thing, but nothing. So if there is anything I could do to help me cry, please help! Thanks!

there is some kind of thing u can smell that could help bring the tears out, maybe smell an onion before u need to cry.
I think of my poisoned kittens or pinch myself hard. ...awkward....
not all acting parts call for crying and when they do they usually have a good reason so if you're really in your character and in that moment you'd start crying. Just practice some scenes and really try to feel as if everything is really happening i'm sure you'd be able to cry.
sometimes if you really try but you can't cry, just look like you are trying to hold it in. Look diagnally down.
are you a starting actress??even a seasoned actress can get away with fake crying. How you feel and the emotions that you allow your self to build up will let if come natural. an audience must feel what you feel. The hurt, the pain, the crushing of the heart that will shock them and sympothize for you. It takes actors a long time to master that. but if you are TRULEY feeling and beliveing your character, you will eventaully get it. its a lot of work but you will get it. I have done many shows where I had to show that type of emotion!! It was hard at first, but then when you find you OBJECTIVE in the scene, and you realize that the character becomes emotional, let it happen!! NATUARLLY! It is better NOT to cry at all than to fake it. you do not wanna look weird. I hope this helps. Help Me!! Its Too Painful - Is It Normal? - http://isitnormal.com::

Yawning willmake your eyes look soft and watery,
Try not to blink and after a few seconds tears will well up. Or look directly at a light in the room. Basically, the stall here is your trying not to cry and wala you have tears in you eyes. Once you feel them comming you can usually bring more very easy
i have the same problem. i am not a very emotional person, so here are some tricks i have.
-ok, if you have contacts, take them out and put them back in whiteout water or anything. it hurts really bad but you will definitly tear up.
-onions. they stink, but really work. they even make you nose run.
-it might be just me, but if i have to stage cry and cant use the first two techniques, i hold my breath and take gaspy breaths, while focusing as hard as i can on becoming the character and feeling what they feel. it really works.
-saline eye drops. no joke
anything to make your nose seem like it is running, or sniffly.
