can return you to normal. It does me when my brain gets out of wack.
Find a silent mantra and follow your breath, then make it a habit.

It went on for a while and then I stopped, mostly. I find that "things" that I feel strongly about bring tears to my eyes even when crying wasn't where my head was at. I suspect that it's an unexpected feature of aging, like eye floaters.

Hopefully it's omething that will pass or ease after a short spell.

There's enough to be depressed about in the world, and enough to cry for. You are not responsible for other's problems. We all have to set boundaries, and reset them from time to time. Find your inner strrength and make the mindfulness of sadness temporary.

music originated in Portugal. The Fado musical artists are mournful and whimsical performers.
The best places to hear Fado are in local street bars or bodegas without the expensive dinners and shows.

You will be with artists who understand you. It speaks to the soul and resonates deeply.

Fado singers and musicians reflect the deep longing, passion, and suffering that is the history and heritage of the Portuguese.
Have you seen or heard these performers and musicians? Did it help in any way?

I am of Portuguese heritage; inside of the Portuguese we usually live a "saudade" which is hard to translate with one word. But the Fado is all about the "saudade" which is a longing for, usually something from the past, a deep emotion that is impossible to forget or wash away. It is a constant state that comes and goes. It is internal and eternal. the closest word is perhaps "longing" but it is more than that, it becomes a part of the person.

Even if a medication you are taking is not known to cause depression, it may in combination with other drugs.

Weeping daily for no apparent reason, or over news stories that would have pissed me off earlier. Don’t know your age or gender but antidepressants worked wonders. So maybe you’re experiencing something like that.

I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. It’s hard and bewildering and seemingly arises from nowhere.

That can be the cause of unusual responses to emotion....

I've had multiple skull fractures & other TBI as a child & adult. I cry very easily but I'm not sure that is the cause.

I don't know why? There's been a lot to cry about lately.

I'm crying at the movie Water Horse : Legend of the Deep this morning.

I'll usually have to stop talking before it gets bad. In my case, I think its stress

Like, just talking about a kids movie started me.

with my brother. We did not talk for 2 years, (he is a MAGA)

But he died in July. I think that I am upset because I had alway wanted to go back to when we got along and he liked me. I remember talking to my mother about it; we were trying to figure out why is didn't like me anymore. He did some really shitty things to me over the years, (of course I am bisexual and that is just not acceptable in his group) he did apologize to me a year or some.

My mom is dead, my father is dead and my brother is dead. I am the last surviving person in my immediate family.

Maybe it is grief I hadn't thought about it before. He died in July

I'm sorry.

In Splendour in the Gress where she's reading aloud in class and is so overcome with emotion she has to run out of the classroom. My emotions are like that sometimes.
