Psychic tears

These are the kind of tears that emerge out of a sense of sorrow when we cry a lot. Sobbing a lot gives rise to these tears, which run out due to emotions such as suffering, anger or mourning or due to physical pain.

Natural tears

These tears come as a reflex action in response to irritation in the eyes. They come out naturally, without emotional indulgence. Many-a-times, they come in inept situations, and there will be people running to wipe them off.

Because of onions

Not cried since long? Want to wash your eyes?  Onions will do the talking to make you cry. Simply chop an onion without washing it. I guarantee, there will be tears swamping your face.
