Ah, horomones.
I think that's got to be a part of it. There is so much about brain/body chemistry we don't know. There is no doubt we manufacture just the right little devil of a hormone that slots our mood to where we may or may not want it to be. But WHY?
For some of us, it's all about chemistry. For others, events have changed our chemistry, or caused our chemistry to alter.
The bouts of crying with your son - that's familiar! I had the same thing, but not for a few years. Having learned to express the stuff that builds up has helped, and for me, I think it was a way of telling my husband I needed loving attention. Now Ican just say it, and talk to him and others about the things that gnaw.
But before, there would be my brain saying, hey, we gotta make some of those screaming, crying hormones.
Thanks, Dinah. I looked up cyclothymia. What can I say but that there are more people in the world than there are diagnosis in the DSM.
