    As someone whom laughs as a coping mechanism people think im crazy too. I broke my back once and laughed like a maniac because the pain was so extreme and everyone looked at me like I belonged in the psych ward. I also laugh like a madman when I stub my toe, which happens quite a lot in my cluttered house. Its why they say "the happiest person is often the saddest".
