Bursts of Crying for Basically no Reason?

Hello.
I was just wondering if this happens to anyone else?

Something so insignificant will happen, then I will burst out into tears. Like full on bawling my head off.

Examples: I dropped a beverage at a family gathering. Would have been so easy to clean up as it was a frozen smoothie. I lost my mind. It was quite embarassing.
Another example: my husband and I were cleaning out the trailer. He found a tick (for those of you that don't know a tick is a small spider looking animal that will dig into your skin, disgusting) on my sweater. Usually that would be no biggie at all. I freaked out and lost my mind again.

I've never been like this before. Do you think it might be the meds? I don't know Help!

Are you depressed??

I see you have borderline (bpd) in your signature as one of your DXs, could it be that? Extreme reactions triggered by small events

I went through the exact same thing. Mine happened when I wasn't on an AD. I have been on ADs for years and when they tried to take me off one, I had crying jags all over the place! Have you had a recent med change or are you on an AD? Once they put me back on one, I was fine again. Except at times, I do tear up about insubstantial things, but it's over very quickly and I return to normal.

I hated those crying jags. I really feel for you. They come on with the slightest trigger. Talk to over with pdoc. My thoughts are with you.

I am not on an anti depressant. I just had another incident. I was out for a walk with my husband and son. Got back (nothing happened on the walk) and when we got home, I just started bawling. I just felt like this wave of extreme depression came over me. After my short bawling session, I was fine and came out of my room and helped put my son to bed, feelings of depression vanished.
I have no idea what's going on. This is not me. I also have a terrible memory (can't find things in my own kitchen), can't find the correct words to use, droop things constantly, ugh. I'm just so done with all of it. I'm supposed to go back to work in 7 weeks. I have no idea how I'm going to manage.

Hi. I had been going thru the same thing. Sobbing at awkward times or just tears streaming down my face. I am also BP2. I was trying to maintain on Lamictal beacuse I was having severe side effects from many other drugs. That was ok for about a month when the tears started. And anxiety, which is not like me. My DR. Added Lexapro, an antidepressant, SSRI but I need to watch for any signs of mania. So far, I'm feeling better after 10 days. No more crying. Period. What a relief. I'm also on synthroid and seeing a new endo who added cytomel. From what I understand, sometimes this can help too. good luck to you. I Hope to hear how you are soon.

I do this when I am severely depressed or sometimes in a mixed episode.
