Can Emotional Outburst Be Due To Tear Gland?

Hi Doc, Its little weird to having ask this question, but I feel I have some problem with my tear gland. Whenever I am confronted in a emotional situation I burst out most of the time. This has happened lately in front of my boss when he was absolutely rude and unreasonable I had absolutely no control on my tear. He feels I am faking it and more so I don’t want to show myself as emotionally weak. How can I have a control over it?

Hello,

It is unlikely to be due to any tear gland problem and the watering from eyes is directly related to the emotional state of the mind. It can be overcome by psychological counselling. There are no medicines to cure it except your own will power .
