Has anyone experienced any issues with their emotions(lol)? Generally I am a happy person and would not classify myself as depressed but at times I just start crying for really no apparent reason. Of course we are all overwhelmed by our situations but I know I can't be walking around about to cry all the time. I have had depression in the past so i know what that feels like so I can't really say its that.

YOU DID NOT SAY IF YOU WERE IN A FLARE OR NOT. THAT CAN CAUSE IT. ALSO IF ITS CLOSE TO YOUR PERIOD ,YOUR HORMONES COULD BE FLUCTUATING. GOOD LUCK

Yeah I am close to my period and no flare up, I wonder if this is a part of being 34, I am not use to this at all.

I've had a lot of issues lately, too. Not so much crying, as just being a general bitch. I hate it! I'm not this kind of person!

My Rebif nurse described it as "the MS personality." Yay.

emotions are a real challange. there is a gal at work that is a doll...but for some reason, every time we talk i snap at her. i've had to apologize once. she's never bothered me before!
and then yesterday one of my managers asked me how i was and i started crying, when she came to hug me i really didn't want her to and i started backing away from her. then i was "fine"...went on my merry way. so all this unexplained emotion is driving me crazy too...

O, wow if my family had a minute with you to talk about my emotions yea, they would say I am not myself sometimes. I take lexapro for my depression. I havent cried in five weeks. Guess it is working...lol
