My cousin's wedding toast left me crying in the parking lot

At my cousin's wedding, I suddenly started crying during the toast and had to hide in the parking lot... it made me wonder if I'm dealing with more stress than I thought.

Pay attention to what makes you cry, it's a big stress clue.

When david_chen said to pay attention to what makes you cry, it really clicked for me. I see this pattern where people get upset over little things because they're too full of stress. Why do we always lose it at happy events or during emotional scenes? Our minds use these times to let go of hidden tension, like when a silly ad makes you cry on a bad day. We push down our feelings until one small thing opens the floodgates. Your parking lot moment might be a sign to take better care of yourself.

Yeah I once cried at a car insurance commercial because the dad came home safe. My brain was just so fried from work that a singing gecko broke me. Now I use random tv tears as my personal stress meter.
