To follow up on what @hopeful33250 posted on pseudobulbar affect (PBA), which can affect people with neurologic disorders like stroke, closed-head injury, MS, etc., and can cause uncontrollable crying or laughing (sometimes at an inappropriate time), I'd like to invite some others into this conversation to talk about whether they have experienced this, like @lakelifelady @dawnpereda @ian7811 @hammondm99 @brightwings @leslon @grammadoro @becsbuddy.

Have you met anyone who's experienced PBA, @hopeful33250?

Hello @lisalucier,

I have never personally known anyone with this disorder but I have seen a lot mentions of it in the media in the form of public service announcements. I would hope that any Members of Connect who have been affected by this personally or in their family might post.
