How can I cry on cue?

Question by I banged the Devil on the kitchen table: How can I cry on cue?
I need tips besides thinking of something sad in my life. I’m trying to be an actress and this is one talent I am trying to master. I haven’t had that many extremely sad moments. I’m a happy person and of course that’s not helping. I tried not blinking and yawning (at the same time) but i still cant get enough tears to actually fall down my face even after blinking several times. I used to cry involuntarily when thinking of fictional sad moments with sad music in my head. Now it doesn’t work. Nothing makes me cry! Not even onions! Do i lack tears or something?! Help! Any sad movies i can watch that i can think of later and still cry or anything else like that? Any fictional sad moments I should think of? Sad music to go with it? Anything to make me cry?! Any tricks besides sad moments? Eyedrops? Help!

What about convincing yourself something tragic has happened. Could you imagine how you would feel if, you found out your mom had died in some terrible accident?? What about a song or a movie that brought tears to your eyes??
