Yes, I do sometimes cry while I am laughing uncontrollably! It does feel good but it seems to always come at a bad time, like at church or in a restaurant! What is up with that??

Yea, my kids got me going a little over a month ago in a restaurant, and it just so happens my mom was there at the table too. She did not find the humor in it. I had to excuse myself to the restroom to get myself under control! LOL!

I love it when I laugh so hard that tears come flowing. There are times when I just imagine something that would make me so happy and I end up crying HAHA. It is a wonderful feeling.

When my mother mistaken a mentally illed lady as my father's ex- GF. It's actually the poor lady's sister. :)

I do not recall. I doubt I have cried when I was overjoyed before. I tear when I am sad. I also tear when I am very tired and am yawning. I remember how I used to yawn a lot during lectures and then after a while, I would feel tears in my eyes.

I can't remember the last time that happened although I do remember this happening when I was laughing super hard then I get choked up and tears just come out then it turns into a cry. Have a good day

Oh, yes! I've been so overjoyed that I cry. Most recently it's happened when I was with my new born son. Actually I've been so overjoyed that I laughed and that was when I just gave birth to the same, the doctors must have thought I lost my mind.

It's been so long ago that I've been overjoyed by something I cant even tell you how long, i dont remember how it feels. I would be overjoyed if my son got a direction in life and started funtioning as a normal 19 almost twenty year old that would be the thing that would give me the most joy, second to that I would love to win a great deal of money in a sweepstakes or contest.

yes. i've experienced this already. it's the moment that you can't stop laughing & your stomach aches cause it contracts too much. you're also grasping for breath coz you're continuous laughing is prohibiting you from breathing. your eyes gets teary & you can't see clearly unless you wipe them. hmmm... what a nice feeling.
