Ladies,

I have recently started experiencing “happy tears.” I have never in my life cried because I was happy. Only when I felt very negative emotions. Really I haven’t cried all too much in my adult life. (I cried a lot as a teenager).

Yet, over the past 2 weeks I have been moved to tears at generally happy things—even beautiful things or things that I enjoy. Or something that makes me laugh so hard that I’m crying.

I have never experienced anything like this before, but now it feels I am crying during happy moments every day. I will feel the tears coming and I don’t understand why.

Has anyone else ever experienced this? What does this mean?
