I rarely cry from sadness, but when I do, OH boy! It's a flood! I think this is due to the antidepressant I take, since I used to cry easily, but since having this med for many years now, I can go for a year or more without shedding a tear.
Recently, though, I've LAUGHED so hard I've shed tears,and I sure felt better. Wonder if tears of laughter have the same hormonal/chemical makeup?
