Wow for some reason I wasn't here for joker. I'm like how the hell did it end up in the first result after typing laughing? I know why now. And yea, I'm here because I was watching a cannibal tribe video
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.
im 17 and i suffer from PBA sudden outbursts of laughter it happened today and i couldnt control myself a few people were looking at me crazy but i still couldnt stop
+TalkTo Manny there is a drug out now they are using to treat it. But the thing is the main drug is the same one in over the counter cough syrup. Dextromorphan- do some research on it- go to the store and experiment to see if it helps. It works for my pain!
@@vincemedija3028 that's actually really cool. He did a really good performance to show people about. I didn't know it was a thing until I saw the movie.
Man I seem to have this and I didn't even realize it until I saw the movie. I didn't realize that this wasn't just a normal part of my depression. I guess I had a fucking stroke or one of those other diseases they mentioned that I know nothing about, MLB or NFL.
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.
Doctor put me on nuedexta it works I still have episodes I have fewer not as long but there's still side effects to the medication overall this is the best that's worked for me
@@VANDALIAM Wow. I know it's 3 months ago and you've probably forgotten about this.. but god damn. You anonymous internet postings are absolute shit. Is your life really that sad?
@Elder1 As somebody who suffers from (at times) debilitating anxiety, I can't even comprehend how tough you must be. What an incredibly resilient individual you are. You have my upmost respect. Stay strong brother.
Walks into Joker: this looks like it's going to be a good comic book movie! Walks out of Joker: *intensely educates myself on various mental health issues.*
In my schooldays I got punished twice for laughing randomly without any reference and couldn’t control myself. Once my school went to a picnic and there was an empty dome (Humayun tomb) we went inside. In a middle of all silence everywhere I started laughing uncontrollably. 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
I'm 17 and this happens a lot but today i was crying uncontrollably then start laughing uncontrollably at the same time i go from laughing to crying over and over an it doesn't stop for like and hour. while i was laughing tears were still coming out, i really feel like I'm going crazy when this happened. i also laughed when my dog bit a poisonous frog but really i was going crazy on the inside.
Common nothing is impossible Everything is possible to the god Allah Ijust saw beleive Allah learn Islam iswept you definately cure Go and learn preachings of prophet muhammad
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.
Me too. People don’t understand me. I laugh uncontrollably in inappropriate times or situations and I can’t stop it it just continues and in the inside I’m really sad both by the situation and by myself because people think I care less or I’m emotionless or rude or evil sometimes and really I don’t know what to do. I haven’t experienced stroke or dementia
joker was a great movie. dark as hell but shine a lot of awareness of multiple mental issues that very few people knew. it carries such huge deep values and concerns.
Never knew about this before I watched joker, and I’m pretty sure I have it too, I show all of the symptoms and have sudden outbursts of laughter and can’t stop laughing when something funny *does* happen.
searched for this because last night i got into an argument with my mum as usual, and as she exited the room slamming the door shut I found myself laughing incontrollably with tears streaming down, and in between i was actually crying. It caught me off guard, cuz even tho It did happen before, like laughing for something that wasn't funny and stuff.. but it never felt so scary. I must say, i scare myself sometimes..
Literally the same happened with me. Me and my mom argue a lot. Today i was going out after an argument with her. She came out of the house after me, threatened me in public why I stepped out without her permission, ordered me to get inside the house. When she left I found myself laughing uncontrollably with tears streaming down my face side by side. I went inside and idk why gave her a maniac smile. It was totally out of my control.
I used to suffer from this in my childhood, no one was aware about this I found about this after watching Joker...I have a huge respect for the movie for raising awareness!
The reason I looked this up is because, Whenever someone accuses of something I didn't do nor do I know about I start laughing I try to stop laughing, and whenever I try to explain the person already decides to get upset with me! This of course has made me go through many misunderstanding and I can't help but feel misunderstood because of it. But I am getting better at controlling! And it is a really good upgrade!
I'm 15 and I have had this disorder since I was a little kid and I have never had a stroke or any of the other of the things they listed off. And don't say I'm just being a teenager like I said I have had this before turning into a teen I've had this forever, and I've never knew what it was until recently. And it answers so many questions I've had over the years why I've acted strange and so back wards when I was a little kid and now.
I work with a guy who I think suffers this. He does not cry but he will suddenly burst into fits of manic laughter for no apparent reason, for people who dont know him its fairly disturbing but he is a nice enough person.
Thank you for this. I had an ischemic stroke two years ago, and although I had always been susceptible to emotional triggers in movies, after my stroke it got really bad. I don't laugh inappropriately, but some things are funnier than normal. It's the crying that really gets me. The slightest thing will set me off now--whether it's something sad, or even just a cool moment. (Okay, that is slightly inappropriate.) My family finds it amusing, thankfully, but I can't just watch most movies without crying, and then laughing about the crying. I usually just say "My brain is broken." My neurologist prescribed Neudexta and it helps a lot.
I have diagnosed mental disorders, and while I haven’t been diagnosed with this , I’ve gone through weird moments of laughing and laughing suddenly out of the no where just because I felt a little happy, and I have felt like I’m going crazy definitely , it’s horrible, I laugh and laugh and laugh, but it’s scary, I’m scared and confused and frustrated, I know I’m weirding out everyone around me, and they probably think I’m crazy, I hate it so much
I don’t have PBA as far as I’m aware but I do have manic episodes and at the start of one I end up crying for almost no reason and then laugh hysterically at nothing and it can go back and forth or the laughing will start first then the crying. This has happened my whole life and I’ll just lay on the floor laughing my ass off and crying hysterically.
Even I start laughing without any reason. It's not like I am sitting and I start laughing but it's like I am talking to someone and I start laughing. And such a thing happened today but I don't remember it happened before. I am just 14 years old and have no stroke. Today such a situation happened. 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. I don't think I have PBA for sure. But yes I feel I need to go to the washroom urgently. And in the video I saw you say about it too, so is it because of that? My Mom is angry at me as she thinks I laughed on her but I really didn't, infact I wasn't thinking about her too! I was not understanding why this happened so searched and found this video. Please clear this out🙏🙏 But I had no strokes and I am perfectly healthy.
People with this condition are still people like us. I mean, we don't have to separate them badly, theu just need our understanding on their condition. Among all of us, those with PBA are stronger bcause they still face the world though they are in trouble with themselves. We must let them know we understand them and appreciate them all the time. Give them a sense of purpose and existence ❤
I really don’t think I have it but this happened like three times now.. I started having an uncontrollable laughing fit for about 5-10 minutes over things that weren’t even that funny and then I started choking on one of those times and I STILL couldn’t stop laughing. I felt like I was gonna die
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.
I loved my mom very much. I laughed at my mom's funeral .She committed suicide when I was just 17.. The handout paper said celebrating the life of .... I just thought at the time she's partying in heaven,. Now I understand this condition.
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
00:18 I do not have any of these diseases but after my break-up 7 months ago I got uncontrollable laugh and cries. 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.
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 🙏😊🙏
I'm not sure if i have this disease, prolly not but today i just started crying and hysterically laughing at the same time. I couldn't control myself and punched the wall so hard that i now have bruises. Lastly i started banging my head on my latptop and now i have a headache. 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 also thought that i was just having a mental breakdown since i've been stressed with school work lately. Idk...
Same, yesterday I started laughing at a really stupid joke about shit that I was making and then I just started crying and sobbing and then laughing and then sobbing and then laughing and then sobbing like super emotionally hurt but then really funny. I did it once in class and the class wsa so fucking awkward.
its a real condition I often get in trouble with this because I laugh uncontrollably every meal and my father tells me I'm crazy and everytime go to school and pass by on someone (only two of us) I laugh too or see a dog that is just barking I laugh too and then I cry suddenly.If I laugh too hard I cry too and when I cry I laugh too.
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.
So could it be said that this condition causes those who have it to either cry or laugh about various things or events and have no control over it or am I not understanding correctly?
Just had an experience like this today I don’t know what triggered me to outburst like that when I was in a very depressed and suicidal state of mind. I was laughing uncontrollably and laughing so hard that I literally had nonstop tear flow running down my cheeks, and my whole body was numb and twitching afterwards and I felt really different it was a really strange experience..
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.
I never had a brain injury or stroke or anything like that but whenever someone brings bad news like someone's death or an extreme injury or something painful I start laughing I get mixed emotions feeling sad suddenly during happy moments and sometimes uncontrollable laugh when I get bullied, today my mother was scolding me and I suddenly burst outta laughter I am not crazy I did have some strange experiences in my childhood like when I was 9 I felt sadistic I skipped 4 classes from grade 6-11 after the birth of my CP sister my parents went in depression due to medical bills, the pressure of uni, the pressure of helping my parents I am just trying to ask what am I suppose to do. Do I have it or not how can I tell my parents I am just tired
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.
I don’t know if I have PBA. I laugh all the time at bad situations but I don’t cry? The last time I cried was years ago and I’m 14, somehow I cant control the laughing and I don’t know how to control it
I have moments where im sobbing and wailing but simultaneously laughing hysterically. sometimes I wanna cry but all I can do is laugh, and vice versa. this is so hard for me, and my parents dont wanna accept it. they don't care. im alone in this...
Bro I just started laughing out of nowhere I wasn’t thinking of anything my sister was right next to me then I started crying then laughing again it was so weird my sister was genuinely scared
I have no idea if I actually have this or not but my problem is that I silently cry and laugh at so many things that aren’t even sad or funny. 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
so glad i found this been dealing with this and no one could tell me what was going on until i posted this video of me crying and laughing I posted on my stroke group
I’ve had PBA since forever. My mom thinks I’m crazy . It’s embarrassing for me because everytime I start laughing it slowly turns into crying even though I’m not sad and it’s soo embarrassing because I know people start looking at me weird .
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'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’ve never had a stroke or any head trauma but sometimes I get explosive anger and start laughing and crying or when I’m simply slightly sad I just start sobbing uncontrollably :/
Just wondering, people with PBA, how do your control your emotions? Do you just let it pass or do you take medicine to keep it in check. Is it like Depression, or like having tourettes (constant feeling or a sudden burst) or a combination?
Velo C. Raptor I’ve seen some people comment that it’s extremely weird and unexpected. Most people are annoyed of it and find it disturbing. Most people with pba get treatments so it’s alright
This condition seems very serious, glad Joker raised awareness, now the assholes who get mad or tease someone because of this, will feel bad and get shocked that the person they teased really has a condition
Thank you so much for public that procurement of it is very much helpingspecially for me because I was gone through that type of little disorder butpopping up with such type of situation now I think I have power to copper with such type of situations
Yes. intoxication with certain substances, such as alcohol and benzodiazepines. It can also be an associated feature of ADHD In addition to strokes, neurological conditions and traumatic brain injuries
People literally think goin insane is now common, just cause u cry sometimes dont mean your arthur fleck😂 remember its a movie not a lifestyle for those who felt encouraged by the movie to just self diagnose yourself as crazy. lmao people are so easily influenced 😂😂
@@305dar8 It sounds like you're saying that people who actually have this condition are faking it. Please be more clear because people can't really tell what you might mean even if you think it's obvious.
Clearly if you have any education in basic reading and comprehension you would understand that i was shunning those who think any small sign of depressed state means you have this debilitating disease, i have the utmost respect for those with psudobulbar affect trust me. And for anyone thinking i meant that i am sorry for ur lack of education
I was surprised when I was talking to my friend about PBA and they understood what I meant. She had seen the Joker movie and knew what I was describing. I began to have episodes of PBA almost two years ago after a traumatic brain injury. I guess I’m happy that the movie brought attention to it! :)
PBA has basically ruined my social life. My family is too embarrassed to be around me, and it's impossible to hold a long - term job with this disability. Hopefully the red light therapy and magnetic stimulation can help relieve some of the symptoms. So far, it's been working on me. Maybe in a few years we will have more research into this and help for people like me.
@@gleniogoalhornsstudios I think it was implied that he got this condition via traumatic head injury (one of the causes listed here) when he was physically abused by his mother's boyfriend, as a child.
I don't know at all if I may have pba, or maybe I simply don't get what the symptom in general is. My question is; Is me being extremely sensitive, or crying without any control, me having a symptom of pba?
I don’t know what going on with me, but when i look at something it will make me laugh but the people around me laugh too, however, they all stop after few second and stop, but i can’t stop. I can calm myself down for a few second but when i look at that subject again, im going to bust laughing and some how when i try to walk away, my tears start to fall, and my head very dizzy at the moment and have some weird action like scratching myself uncontrollable on my neck and arm
can anyone help me because today (not the first experience, it's happened many times) i found a funny video and kept laughing for 5 mins and i couldn't stop. right as i was laughing, i started crying uncontrollably. i wasn't sad, i was really happy actually but i couldn't stop. and it kept alternating between the two for like 10-15 minutes. i don't have any brain injuries whatsoever, what could that be?
Well I’m glad at least Joker raised awareness.
Wow for some reason I wasn't here for joker. I'm like how the hell did it end up in the first result after typing laughing? I know why now. And yea, I'm here because I was watching a cannibal tribe video

This happened because of his mother who let him be abused by her boyfriends.

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.

"why am I laughing when I'm crying?"
That's my search bar.
Why i am crying when i am laughing that's mine since two years🙂and now i can't laugh and while this it's tough to breath☠i am tired
OMG YES
It happens to me all the time
Yeah me too I laughed hysterically why holding my cats body
And cry when I really feel any strong emotion
FRRRQ
I don't wanna seem crazy when crying like i be laughing when this is a sad thing but im crying cause its sad but the laughing comes out of nowhere
i couldn’t stop laughing in class it was uncontrollable we were talking about depression
my little nephew pushed someone off in park he cried and i laughed.. everyone was pissed off
Bro?
In my schooldays I got punished twice for laughing randomly without any reference and couldn’t control myself. Once my school went to a picnic and there was an empty dome (Humayun tomb) we went inside. In a middle of all silence everywhere I started laughing uncontrollably. 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
My mother informed me of death of one of my cousins and i had to run out of the room since i was bursting with laughter
Luckily, if everyone with this condition had a card describing the condition like Arthur Fleck in Joker brought out
Joker spreads more awareness about this
came here after watched joker 2019
Here
Hey me too
meeee
Same
PBA always pops up on my newsfeed on Facebook
Literally never knew about this until Joker.
Literally sobbing for no reason while watching this
im glad i came across this, ive been seeing a guy on the bus laughing uncontrollably consistently it was scary however im glad i know now whats up
was his name Arthur
Holy crap. You met the Joker
God damn, what a universe we live in . What drugs they on ?
Wisconsin Latterman pba is not from drugs it’s from head trauma
Awww poor guy, I hope he's okay
I'm 17 and this happens a lot but today i was crying uncontrollably then start laughing uncontrollably at the same time i go from laughing to crying over and over an it doesn't stop for like and hour. while i was laughing tears were still coming out, i really feel like I'm going crazy when this happened. i also laughed when my dog bit a poisonous frog but really i was going crazy on the inside.
it really makse you feel insane huh
Common nothing is impossible
Everything is possible to
the god Allah
Ijust saw beleive Allah learn Islam iswept you definately cure
Go and learn preachings of prophet muhammad
Ik it's been two years since you've commented but have you had a stroke or such in the past that caused pba? Just asking out of curiosity.
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.
Me too. People don’t understand me. I laugh uncontrollably in inappropriate times or situations and I can’t stop it it just continues and in the inside I’m really sad both by the situation and by myself because people think I care less or I’m emotionless or rude or evil sometimes and really I don’t know what to do. I haven’t experienced stroke or dementia
Joker raised awareness. Didn't know this thing existed. I searched this video it wasn't recommended.
joker was a great movie. dark as hell but shine a lot of awareness of multiple mental issues that very few people knew. it carries such huge deep values and concerns.
Sometimes,when other people are laughing,even if I don't know what is funny,I just start laughing with them for no reason.
I think that's normal because u laugh at their laughing
I mean the way they laugh
I'm here because of Joaquin Phoenix
Sometimes I laugh when I'm feeling like crap
Never knew about this before I watched joker, and I’m pretty sure I have it too, I show all of the symptoms and have sudden outbursts of laughter and can’t stop laughing when something funny *does* happen.
searched for this because last night i got into an argument with my mum as usual, and as she exited the room slamming the door shut I found myself laughing incontrollably with tears streaming down, and in between i was actually crying. It caught me off guard, cuz even tho It did happen before, like laughing for something that wasn't funny and stuff.. but it never felt so scary.
I must say, i scare myself sometimes..
❤
Literally the same happened with me. Me and my mom argue a lot. Today i was going out after an argument with her. She came out of the house after me, threatened me in public why I stepped out without her permission, ordered me to get inside the house. When she left I found myself laughing uncontrollably with tears streaming down my face side by side. I went inside and idk why gave her a maniac smile. It was totally out of my control.
I used to suffer from this in my childhood, no one was aware about this I found about this after watching Joker...I have a huge respect for the movie for raising awareness!
How did it stop
@@Daniel-tr4yx Well i am not sure about that but once i grow older I will consult a doctor regarding this issue.
I never had a stroke but I laugh instead of crying
I think we just laugh at ourselves, because how pity our lives have been 🥲
I wish i had that🤦♂️
This is from 7 years ago, and now people are talking about the Joker movie
The reason I looked this up is because, Whenever someone accuses of something I didn't do nor do I know about I start laughing I try to stop laughing, and whenever I try to explain the person already decides to get upset with me! This of course has made me go through many misunderstanding and I can't help but feel misunderstood because of it. But I am getting better at controlling! And it is a really good upgrade!
I never had a stroke but went to the docs n we found out I hav PBA but not as bad as most people hav it
I'm 15 and I have had this disorder since I was a little kid and I have never had a stroke or any of the other of the things they listed off. And don't say I'm just being a teenager like I said I have had this before turning into a teen I've had this forever, and I've never knew what it was until recently. And it answers so many questions I've had over the years why I've acted strange and so back wards when I was a little kid and now.
I work with a guy who I think suffers this. He does not cry but he will suddenly burst into fits of manic laughter for no apparent reason, for people who dont know him its fairly disturbing but he is a nice enough person.
Thank you for this. I had an ischemic stroke two years ago, and although I had always been susceptible to emotional triggers in movies, after my stroke it got really bad. I don't laugh inappropriately, but some things are funnier than normal. It's the crying that really gets me. The slightest thing will set me off now--whether it's something sad, or even just a cool moment. (Okay, that is slightly inappropriate.) My family finds it amusing, thankfully, but I can't just watch most movies without crying, and then laughing about the crying. I usually just say "My brain is broken." My neurologist prescribed Neudexta and it helps a lot.
He couldn't help the laughter, it was involuntarily for the disruption
I have diagnosed mental disorders, and while I haven’t been diagnosed with this , I’ve gone through weird moments of laughing and laughing suddenly out of the no where just because I felt a little happy, and I have felt like I’m going crazy definitely , it’s horrible, I laugh and laugh and laugh, but it’s scary, I’m scared and confused and frustrated, I know I’m weirding out everyone around me, and they probably think I’m crazy, I hate it so much
Omg I 100% relate to this
I don’t have PBA as far as I’m aware but I do have manic episodes and at the start of one I end up crying for almost no reason and then laugh hysterically at nothing and it can go back and forth or the laughing will start first then the crying. This has happened my whole life and I’ll just lay on the floor laughing my ass off and crying hysterically.
This has happened to me too, im starting to get worried
I laugh and cry at the same time too like hysterically. Im now confused because im sure it’s not PBA. Idk
Even I start laughing without any reason. It's not like I am sitting and I start laughing but it's like I am talking to someone and I start laughing. And such a thing happened today but I don't remember it happened before.
I am just 14 years old and have no stroke.
Today such a situation happened.
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.
I don't think I have PBA for sure.
But yes I feel I need to go to the washroom urgently.
And in the video I saw you say about it too, so is it because of that?
My Mom is angry at me as she thinks I laughed on her but I really didn't, infact I wasn't thinking about her too!
I was not understanding why this happened so searched and found this video.
Please clear this out🙏🙏
But I had no strokes and I am perfectly healthy.
I think it was Danny Glover who did a public service ad about this condition awhile back...
People with this condition are still people like us. I mean, we don't have to separate them badly, theu just need our understanding on their condition. Among all of us, those with PBA are stronger bcause they still face the world though they are in trouble with themselves. We must let them know we understand them and appreciate them all the time. Give them a sense of purpose and existence ❤
I really don’t think I have it but this happened like three times now.. I started having an uncontrollable laughing fit for about 5-10 minutes over things that weren’t even that funny and then I started choking on one of those times and I STILL couldn’t stop laughing. I felt like I was gonna die
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.
Can't control my laughter while watching this video

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.
I loved my mom very much. I laughed at my mom's funeral .She committed suicide when I was just 17.. The handout paper said celebrating the life of .... I just thought at the time she's partying in heaven,. Now I understand this condition.
Sorry :(
Sorry about that mate. May she rest in peace
Damn. How can something so happy be so sad
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
Sorry :(
I'm glad Joker brought some attention to this
Why does this woman remind me of Michelle Obama?
Voice?
Because she's amazing.
@@thelonelysponge5029 yeah i was about to say the the same thing
@@ItsNessaTho lmao
Because she's BLACK
00:18 I do not have any of these diseases but after my break-up 7 months ago I got uncontrollable laugh and cries. 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.
😂😂😂, bro I'm lost for words I don't belive what this lady is sayin but I do
ive been laughing and crying for 30 minutes straight, i drank water, i walked outside, and it wouldn’t stop
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 🙏😊🙏
I'm not sure if i have this disease, prolly not but today i just started crying and hysterically laughing at the same time. I couldn't control myself and punched the wall so hard that i now have bruises. Lastly i started banging my head on my latptop and now i have a headache. 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 also thought that i was just having a mental breakdown since i've been stressed with school work lately. Idk...
Same, yesterday I started laughing at a really stupid joke about shit that I was making and then I just started crying and sobbing and then laughing and then sobbing and then laughing and then sobbing like super emotionally hurt but then really funny. I did it once in class and the class wsa so fucking awkward.
its a real condition I often get in trouble with this because I laugh uncontrollably every meal and my father tells me I'm crazy and everytime go to school and pass by on someone (only two of us) I laugh too or see a dog that is just barking I laugh too and then I cry suddenly.If I laugh too hard I cry too and when I cry I laugh too.
Everyone does that.. don’t be thinking you have a condition just because you have some small symptoms of a disorder.
KARASUNO in youtube eat a sushi wabi labi
I sometimes choke on my meals
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.
Victoria xo people need to stop self diagnosing
This happened to me at one incident where my plan for an important event failed miserably because of someone's ignorance.
So could it be said that this condition causes those who have it to either cry or laugh about various things or events and have no control over it or am I not understanding correctly?
I'm here after seein JOKER
Just had an experience like this today I don’t know what triggered me to outburst like that when I was in a very depressed and suicidal state of mind. I was laughing uncontrollably and laughing so hard that I literally had nonstop tear flow running down my cheeks, and my whole body was numb and twitching afterwards and I felt really different it was a really strange experience..
Why deos it happen for you?I mean like what condition is causing it
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.
I never had a brain injury or stroke or anything like that but whenever someone brings bad news like someone's death or an extreme injury or something painful I start laughing I get mixed emotions feeling sad suddenly during happy moments and sometimes uncontrollable laugh when I get bullied, today my mother was scolding me and I suddenly burst outta laughter I am not crazy I did have some strange experiences in my childhood like when I was 9 I felt sadistic I skipped 4 classes from grade 6-11 after the birth of my CP sister my parents went in depression due to medical bills, the pressure of uni, the pressure of helping my parents I am just trying to ask what am I suppose to do. Do I have it or not how can I tell my parents I am just tired
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.
Ugh that sound depressing
mr keeper i know right! I’m lmao.
I don’t know if I have PBA. I laugh all the time at bad situations but I don’t cry? The last time I cried was years ago and I’m 14, somehow I cant control the laughing and I don’t know how to control it
I laughed at ur comment
I have moments where im sobbing and wailing but simultaneously laughing hysterically. sometimes I wanna cry but all I can do is laugh, and vice versa. this is so hard for me, and my parents dont wanna accept it. they don't care. im alone in this...
I once laughed in my physic exam and couldn't stop lol
I suffer from this
Sorry u have to go through that but I’m glade your a niners fan. GO NINERS
Damn Mrs.Cosby I appreciate the information
Bro I just started laughing out of nowhere I wasn’t thinking of anything my sister was right next to me then I started crying then laughing again it was so weird my sister was genuinely scared
I have no idea if I actually have this or not but my problem is that I silently cry and laugh at so many things that aren’t even sad or funny. 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
I have pba and I'm only just realizing it. I'm only 17 years old and it has gotten me in a lot of trouble in the past especially with teachers.
so glad i found this been dealing with this and no one could tell me what was going on until i posted this video of me crying and laughing I
posted on my stroke group
I’ve had PBA since forever. My mom thinks I’m crazy . It’s embarrassing for me because everytime I start laughing it slowly turns into crying even though I’m not sad and it’s soo embarrassing because I know people start looking at me weird .
The Joker movie brought me here
Is she the counsellor of Arthur? She still doesn't listen!!!
But what is that wooden thing on the desk on the right?
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 have PBA Ep once will have it again I was tired ?
How do you get it? I don’t want it just curious probably should’ve said what causes it
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’ve never had a stroke or any head trauma but sometimes I get explosive anger and start laughing and crying or when I’m simply slightly sad I just start sobbing uncontrollably :/
What if a consumer has comorbid PBA & BPD can or should some of the DBT therapy be used without further adding to their already altered sense of self?
Just wondering, people with PBA, how do your control your emotions? Do you just let it pass or do you take medicine to keep it in check. Is it like Depression, or like having tourettes (constant feeling or a sudden burst) or a combination?
Velo C. Raptor I’ve seen some people comment that it’s extremely weird and unexpected. Most people are annoyed of it and find it disturbing. Most people with pba get treatments so it’s alright
This condition seems very serious, glad Joker raised awareness, now the assholes who get mad or tease someone because of this, will feel bad and get shocked that the person they teased really has a condition
Thank you so much for public that procurement of it is very much helpingspecially for me because I was gone through that type of little disorder butpopping up with such type of situation now I think I have power to copper with such type of situations
I have this, thanks for telling me about it so I can seek help.
Is it possible to do it on purpose?
What if you do this but you never had a stroke or
ALS or any other of the mentions above? Can someone with bipolar disorder also have this?
i think it happens to a lot of people but has anyone laughed so much or so hard that they just burst out crying?
Hi can I ask that teens (12) year's get PBA
can you have PBA without a traumatic brain energy, or any other disorder ?
*injury not energy
Yes. intoxication with certain substances, such as alcohol and benzodiazepines. It can also be an associated feature of ADHD In addition to strokes, neurological conditions and traumatic brain injuries
People literally think goin insane is now common, just cause u cry sometimes dont mean your arthur fleck😂 remember its a movie not a lifestyle for those who felt encouraged by the movie to just self diagnose yourself as crazy.
lmao people are so easily influenced 😂😂
What are you even talking about? Please explain
U dont understand english?
@@305dar8 It sounds like you're saying that people who actually have this condition are faking it. Please be more clear because people can't really tell what you might mean even if you think it's obvious.
Clearly if you have any education in basic reading and comprehension you would understand that i was shunning those who think any small sign of depressed state means you have this debilitating disease, i have the utmost respect for those with psudobulbar affect trust me. And for anyone thinking i meant that i am sorry for ur lack of education
I was surprised when I was talking to my friend about PBA and they understood what I meant. She had seen the Joker movie and knew what I was describing. I began to have episodes of PBA almost two years ago after a traumatic brain injury. I guess I’m happy that the movie brought attention to it! :)
What is that thing on her desk
PBA has basically ruined my social life.
My family is too embarrassed to be around me, and it's impossible to hold a long - term job with this disability.
Hopefully the red light therapy and magnetic stimulation can help relieve some of the symptoms. So far, it's been working on me.
Maybe in a few years we will have more research into this and help for people like me.
Me too do you have any cure i cant control my laugh even i hurt my self
I was freaked out at first when I saw Arthur laughing. But now that I watched this now I understand.
Secondly. Joker had a stroke?
@@gleniogoalhornsstudios appearently he did, but it isn't shown anywhere
@@gleniogoalhornsstudios I think it was implied that he got this condition via traumatic head injury (one of the causes listed here) when he was physically abused by his mother's boyfriend, as a child.
That is true
Madam I had heard about this effect from my mathematics teacher Mr. Viz when I was my intermediate science class
I don't know at all if I may have pba, or maybe I simply don't get what the symptom in general is. My question is;
Is me being extremely sensitive, or crying without any control, me having a symptom of pba?
Very informative thanks.
HAHAHA
"Whats so funny?"
hahaha nothing. I have a condition
The fuck does everyone suddenly have PBA after watching The Joker
Can PBA be congenital and/or linked with autism spectrum disorder?
my favorite singer passed away yesterday . i cant stop myself from laughing when i know that im hurting myself
Thanks doctor for talking about this thing this information helped me a lot thanks a lot✝️🛐
-Why are you watching this video? You don't have BPA
-You wouldn't get it
☺ it's a f*cking comedy
TEK cZ how???
It’s really hard living with it. The joker really portrayed it perfectly
Do you suffer from it? I'm sorry.
I don’t know what going on with me, but when i look at something it will make me laugh but the people around me laugh too, however, they all stop after few second and stop, but i can’t stop. I can calm myself down for a few second but when i look at that subject again, im going to bust laughing and some how when i try to walk away, my tears start to fall, and my head very dizzy at the moment and have some weird action like scratching myself uncontrollable on my neck and arm
can anyone help me because today (not the first experience, it's happened many times) i found a funny video and kept laughing for 5 mins and i couldn't stop. right as i was laughing, i started crying uncontrollably. i wasn't sad, i was really happy actually but i couldn't stop. and it kept alternating between the two for like 10-15 minutes. i don't have any brain injuries whatsoever, what could that be?
