      For him, the brain damage came from the abuse, not a random stroke. And that woman had the nerve to nickname him "Happy" 😑. Not excusing his murder of her, she obviously was very mentally ill herself and needed help, but it's harder to sympathize with narcissists who would allow a kid to be abused.

    PBA is extremely real. I had traumatic brain injury (TBI) about six years ago followed by two strokes and I have severe crying only PBA. That is the most common from TBI. It has resulted in the breakup of 44 years of marriage. I have total inability to control crying so hard I have trouble breathing and it can happen at the slightest negative thought that crosses my mind. I also cannot take any of the available treatment drugs so there is no treatment for me. The only good thing in all this is that I am not and never will be suicidal.

And once in a school assembly we had to remain quiet for 2 mins to observe someone’s remembrance. All these in 6th-8th class and still after 6 years can’t control my laugh if happens by itself

    People I told before the Joker movie thought I was sick for laughing after a car accident, even though inside I felt scared and worried for my friend who was minorly injured. My friends were mad and couldn't understand why I would laugh at something like that, and I was mad at myself because I didn't WANT to be laughing. I'm so glad more people know about this, because now I don't feel so embarrassed when it happens. This said that it happens to people usually who have a nervous system disorder or injury, but when it happens to me it's during and after a traumatic or terrifying experience. I wonder if it happens to anyone else in this case.

  • @yokaimilk
    @yokaimilk 10 лет назад +48

    *****
    The difference between people who actually just "like to cry" or "like to laugh" and people with this disorder is that people with Pathological Laughter CAN'T CONTROL IT EVEN IF THEY WANTED TO. Normal people can. I like to laugh but I can stop it just like that whenever I please. However, I have a friend who could start laughing at the same thing, but she literally cannot stop. You can easily see the difference when you have someone close to you that's struggling through it. It's a true neurological disorder and if you're going to say it's "fake" at least look it up and do more research on the disorder rather than jumping to conclusions from facts you heard on a RUclips VIDEO. But, you have your opinions, and I have mine.
    And that's all I have to say about that. 👌✌

    My mom was trying her clothes and was asking me how it looks, she looked beautiful and she asked me to take some pictures, after some pictures I started laughing and I still can't understand WHY! And when I again try to remember how I laughed I start to laugh again.

    But yes I feel I need to go to the washroom urgently.

    I searched for this at the realization that I had already experienced something similar to this in the past, though I have forgotten about it. A few nights ago, I was hanging out with a few friends on a trampoline until I fell over onto my back and started laughing. Though I saw everything around me, I was probably laughing for a consistent 20 minutes until I got a call from my mother. It turned into something sour, and it turned into uncontrollable sobbing. I'm still not positive PBA has anything to do with it yet, but if it is, I'm glad I know a little more about it.

    I haven’t been officially diagnosed, but I think I suffer from this. Whenever I’m at the dinner table and someone says a word which isn’t remotely funny, I just randomly burst out laughing. Even if someone is talking about something serious, some word which I find funny triggers me and I start laughing. I try so hard to hold it back, but then it just looks weird and everyone gives me weird looks. In those situations, I don’t even feel like laughing at all, but it just happens.
    I’m sick of dealing with this. It’s destroying my dignity and worsening my mental health.

      If you have PBA try to get Nuedexta. It's a new med. Very expensive tho. So you have to get approval to get it. I take it and I do not look crazy anymore. I am childhood abuse survivor and I am 41 and I had no idea that I had brain damage that's what caused it. I take nuedexta 10/20 twice a day. It a red capsule and it works for me. I started seeing results in 7 days after the start of the med. Before I would laugh at the stores. I would laugh at things that were sad. I couldnt control EXTREME laughter that made me look sadistic. I am so happy I do not laugh like a crazy woman anymore.

    I have PBA caused by a stroke. It’s the worst thing ever. I was a very conservative person. My daughters had never seen me cry. Only seen me laugh a few times because I was so scared of any emotional display. I’m so thankful that I can laugh and cry now. I truly believe I had the stroke because I needed to be a better person. I am really a different person. I had a walk in soul event recently. I no longer have depression anxiety and I was a sociopath before. It’s all gone now. I am always happy for the first time in my life. My daughters won’t let me get past the old me. They constantly remind me of how I was and try to make me suffer because now I have human emotions and I get hurt easily. I think they enjoy seeing me hurt. I was a good single father. I sacrificed my best years for them and I wouldn’t change anything. This is going too long I’m just lonely because everyone abandoned me after the stroke. Tgey stoke everything first though. God bless everyone 🙏😊🙏

    For some reason, when I wake up or whatever, my dad says stop crying, and I say wth are you saying and rush to the bathroom, when I searched up is there a diease that makes you cry out of nowhere. I found this. And I’m crying right now, I don’t think I have strokes or stuff, but it’s uncontrollable. Everybody thinks I’m crazy. I hate it. It’s only makes me cry and that’s the bad part. They call me a crybaby. And for some reason, when I was crying and calming down, my dad came in the room, and I burst out crying. This is the longest time I had tears and snot roll down my face... And when I talked about it I bursted into tears.. IDK WHY I’m sure I’m crazy

I have had these kind of 'episodes' before but i only let myself out when i'm alone in my room. And the only reason i did all of this was purely because of some small issues.

    I had a pretty bad skull fracture when I was very young so I assume that's when it developed. as a kid I got pretty bad beatings by my father and I would laugh which would make him even more upset and in turn I'd get beat worse. in my early teens I was meant to go with some friends to the beach and ended up over sleeping. they were caught in a rip current and went missing for days. when the news broke and I found out I started giggling and smiling and I got so mad at myself. I didn't understand why I did those things happened until Phoenix's performance in Joker. I haven't had to deal with it in years so I'm not sure of it's something that can just go away or what but yeah just thought I'd share my experiences. (edited some autocorrected words.)

      I was under immense stress mentally from family issues, bullying, drug addiction, and failing classes. The stress I had at that point in time manifested into physical stress which contributed to hysterical laughter and compulsive outbursts. I was vaping and smoking weed at the time and it did nothing but pour salt on the wound. That was a year ago though and I’m doing so much better now. My mental health improved significantly after I quit drugs and successfully got through the psychological and physical withdrawal symptoms. I started working out, eating healthy, helping people in need and started meeting new people. I know some people who are stuck at a low point in life think it doesn’t get better but in all honesty it does. I’m fortunate and blessed to have been one of the few that make it out of such a dark period in life with the happy ending I sought for.

It was in last month when I did notice that happen, when I saw saw her with another guy holding hands, laughing, etc as soon as I saw her I started crying the crying wont stop and just after 5 minutes of crying I started laughing so bad that everyone around me had their eyes on me including her and her new guy. I think she did point a finger at me and said something to her guy but due to the uncontrollable laugh I was not in my senses, That laugh did continue for about a 20 minutes and after that I was emotion less.

Do I have it or not how can I tell my parents I am just tired

    • @ChronicOstrich

      Bursting out into laughter during a scolding is so fucking relatable, I would break out into hysterical laughter if I was punished such as being grounded or having my stuff taken away, get into even more trouble because of it, and start laughing even harder. It was a vicious cycle.
      Laughing during sad events is something I have trouble with too, I was struggling for hours trying not to lose control during my aunts funeral, and not in the crying way, the way that would make people think I belong in a mental hospital for laughing so hard during a loved ones funeral. The only thing I can't relate to is feeling sad during a sad event, it's just laughter and the world continues as normal.

Sometimes I also randomly laugh or laugh when I'm sad (I think this is a way of your brain trying to make you happy).

    I'm not diagnosing myself but I'm probably going to see a doctor about it... I often usually once or twice a week I find myself uncontrollably laughing at things that are mildly funny, and I keep laughing for nearly ten minutes and it isn't even funny but I can't quit... I have had the laughing outbursts Infront of friends multiple times... I also cry very easily... Sometimes something is maybe sad and I cry a lot but sometimes shit that is barely sad it start crying... I don't know... The crying isn't as bad as the laughing. It pops up every few weeks like a said... Like I'll be fine for maybe a week and then I have 2 or 3 laugh attacks in a week. I have never had a stroke though... I'm only in my twenties so is it still possible I have it.

    I don’t know if I have this, but I am a bit confused. I remember getting stressed a couple of times and it felt like something was coming, like a storm was about to come inside of me. Then I ended up laughing extremely hard that it hurt, and then crying to where I couldn’t breath. It was a cycle over and over again. I couldn’t walk, so my brother had to carry me to my parents. I was scared and I didn’t have the strength to completely stand on my own, I didn’t want to talk, I had no appetite, and I had to lay down immediately although I couldn’t even sleep. It was like I turned into an unresponsive zombie. I don’t know what it was this pseudo affect thing, but all I know if that it was like a switch in my brain moving up and down. Although, it’s only happened a few times. Is there anyone who knows what this may be? I’d appreciate your help; I’ve been wondering for months:(

  • @acethejester
    @acethejester 2 года назад +1

    I sort of have that kind of condition but i don't cry, i laugh to almost everything including discord VC with my friends, I didn't know if it was just insanity that was causing my laughter but how wrong i was. btw it really does hurt to laugh, to me apparently. none of my friends know i have this condition and i myself didn't know about it until October or November when i decided to look it up.
    well I've taken a role of being the jester cuz of how i have some sense of humor(still trying to be a comedian) but over time i just go by a crazy, insane jester i was ok with that. but i couldn't control my laughter a lot which causes me to wheeze and laugh.
    to prove i kind of have it, one of my friend went into a bad breakup(will NOT go into detail) it was actually sad to hear and i almost burst out laughter but i still laugh at it, which worried me that i'll lose my friends on discord, I have never ever asked for help but over time i was somewhat able to "control" it but i still burst out laughter which has now been getting worse and been affecting both my mood swings and paranoia.
    when i was young i never had PBA, then again i been hit in the head many time and had a small rock thrown to the back of my head from my brother(mind i add IT HURT, my brother had a hand of a god for christ sake!)
    also i may have driven myself into madness cuz i had so many problems interacting people and being anti social(i rather be alone at some point)
    Edit: OK i sort of lied when i don't cry, I actually did once, the reasoning behind that is that kitten harely was so sick me and my family fear we might lose her, and during the time when she was on my lap cuddleing like the little furball she is i decided to leave a music playlist(i enjoy music but i have strange taste) it was a cover song called catch fire i think by the cog is dead or something around that and i was tearing up cuz i fear of losing her and i was tearing up i went into laughter(thankfully my parents didn't hear it, they don't know about me and i would like to keep it like that!)
    so yea I believe i do have PBA

I don’t sob (unless i start talking about said thing to someone) but instead I get choked up and have to hold back tears and laughter?? And I mean it’s small things like today I was with my mom and we were driving down the highway singing some songs in the radio and I had to periodically stop singing and face the window so she wouldnt see my crying and trying not to laugh. It’s like the smallest thing can cause me to get teary eyed and choked up and then I have to try and not laugh either
