To get lachryphagy, you need to consume 5 tears up pills in a single run.
The Belt, Blood Bag, Sacred Heart, The Peeper, Yum Heart, Goat Hoof and possibly Wire Coat Hanger or Safety Pin
I hate Lachyphagy
It was alot easier in afterbirth, since Mom’s legs were treated as explosions, so if you got host hat or pyromaniac then it basically nullified mom’s legs. But that’s no longer the case, the explosion from the leg striking the floor stills heals you, but if you get with the leg directly, you’ll take damage still.
N O P E
Yes, including the boss room before you get Dad’s Note. It specifically MUST be in the boss room.
It's repentance exclusive. To get them, you need the red key or a cracked key. An easy method of getting a cracked key is to drop a trinket in a boss room. Upon going through your ascension the trinket you dropped in the boss room will turn into a cracked key. Get that cracked key, use it in the hallway leading into Mom's Bedroom and a door to a closet will open. Inside the closet, depending on what character you're playing as, a tainted version of your character will be on the floor in a fetal position, crying. Touching the tainted doppelganger will cause it to stand up and shoot into the heavens, causing you to unlock that tainted character.
Sorry for Necroposting but I have to add other stuff regarding Tainted Jonathan.

Notes about Tainted Jonathan
HP up - These can be found like normal, except their healing is halved.
Yum! Heart - Does not restore HP, but refills hunger bar and freezes it in place for 5 seconds.
<3 - Provides the HP up like normal, but instead of restoring all red hearts, it only restores 2, but slow Jonathan's Hunger Bar to 75% of it's normal depletion speed.
Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart - Provides the HP up like normal but instead of restoring all red hearts, it only restores 2, but slow Jonathan's Hunger Bar to 75% of it's normal depletion speed.
Forgot to add this
Tainted Jonathan also cannot grab any enemies supported by Bishops.
Me: *Enters Devil Room*
Satan: *Offers Brimstone and Athame*
Me: *Uses Diplopia, then Coupon to get Double Brimstone without revoking my angel room chance.*
Satan:
Tainted Jonathan's Gimmick: "Endless Hunger"
Hunger Bar - A Bar will appear below Jonathan's Health, which is Jonathan's Hunger Bar, this is will slowly deplete over time, if it depletes fully, Jonathan takes 2 full hearts of damage (Bypasses any damage reducing items such as Wafer), then the bar refills. (If in a boss while the boss is present, the hunger bar will be slowed down to a quarter of its normal speed.)
No Hearts - Heart Pickups of any kind are completely absent from the game.
(Full Health Pills, and 2 of Hearts have a 60% of being rerolled into a random pill or card respectively.)
Beast / Vampire Mode - Pressing V will cause Jonathan to switch into his Vampire mode. While in this mode, Jonathan is unable to fire tear, but has a grab attack, and can grab enemies, bite and feed on their blood until the enemy. While feeding, this will slowly fill the hunger bar and Jonathan's Health. (This is the only that Jonathan can regain health.) Jonathan can still move while holding enemies, but his speed cut to a quarter of his base speed stats.
Pressing V will cancel grabbing and turn Jonathan into his human form.
Jonathan can also grab other players and drink their blood to regain hunger and health, but will only leave players on half a heart.
Jonathan cannot grab Both forms of The Lost or Ghost Tainted Jacob.
(If Jonathan gets hit by an enemy attack, Jonathan will let go of the enemies.
(Jonathan cannot grab the following enemies.)
Bosses
Mini Bosses
Grimaces
Stoneys
Dark Esau
Any unkillable enemy that isn't a Stoney or Grimace
