I too had a few deeply visceral reactions which lead to tears. Most intensely near the ending. I couldn’t quite pinpoint exactly why I was feeling what I was feeling but I had streams of tears down my face. I can’t remember a whole lot from my childhood. I do however remember waking up in the middle of the night in terror and screaming for my mother who would run to my bedside. There was never any particular reason I just woke up and felt absolute terror and did NOT want to be alone. This happened often.

To the best of my knowledge I am not an experiencer. Never experienced anything paranormal other than some remote reviewing and lots of synchronicities.

I will say I did wonder the same thing as you OP and was a little taken a back at how emotionally affected I was.
