Is it normal for your hand to hurt when you're sad?

This doesn't happen to anyone else I know. But when I'm watching a sad film or if I'm just sad, I feel a sort of pain in my right palm. EVERY SINGLE TIME! So when I'm sad, my hand starts hurting and I sit there rubbing my palm. It's been like that for as long as I can remember... Does this happen to anyone else?

    I suffer a sharp pain along the side of my left thumb every time I feel sad watching a movie. The pain is intense but passes quickly. I am glad that others have had this experience. The body is indeed mysterious!

    I get the pain as well it starts from my wrist and into my upper palm and index finger. I feel it every time i'm sad no matter if it is a movie or a thought.
