Emotional Constipation 

Emotional but unable to express it. Either because of 1.) numbness or 2.) it is socially inappropriate to do so.

1. Bob wants to cry but he just can't for some reason, even though he knows it will make him feel better. Guess he's experiencing some emotional constipation.

2. During the funeral, Jerry wanted to erupt into laughter but knew that it would be socially-inappropriate. She was emotionally-constipated.
