Dr Oz said that it is actually normal for some people to cry when they poop. If you look at how your brain makes decisions, going to the bathroom happens naturally. Your brain sends a message to your colon and says go to the bathroom, but the same parasympathetic system controls your tears, and so the signal can get crossed. Dr Oz said that this is not rare and some people only figure out that this does not happen to everyone by comparing themselves to what their friends say. Dr Oz said that some people can sweat or have blood pressure changes when they poop too!

Thank goodness, I am not alone. My eyes tear when I use the restroom (both one and two) and when I have the big "O". I'm glad I can finally tell my husband that I'm not a big weirdo. He'll still think it's weird, but at least I'm not alone.
I'm in my mid 50's and I can't remember a time it hasn't happened when I go to the bathroom, regardless of what I'm doing. The amount of tears varies from eyes slightly watering to tears rolling down my face, preventing me being able to read and messing up my make-up. Like most of you, any doctor I have mentioned this to has looked at me like I said I enjoy sticking pins in my eyes. In other words they look at me like I may have mental health issues.
Well hello all with all that I have read some crazy and some with meanings to help. I have had this problem since as long as I can remember and now in my 50s it's something that I have had to live with. Asked different doctors they don't know why, it's like what I read earlier the body senses the need to cry, over active tear ducts. No depression, no sadness, no hurts, no pee out of your eyes, no burning, just tears people. Of all of the million upon millions of people in this world there are going to be differences in the body some normal some not. You have people who can't cry at all. Honest of all of the things that can go wrong in our body and can do to itself I will take this any day. No worries it is your natural way of your body. So from the age of 4 to 54 it has not changes, for me it is just natural for me to grap tissue to wipe my eyes first than grap more tissue to wipe what I need to next.
