This is a thing that has frequently come up my life as well. I am used to "being taken down a peg" for daring to show happiness in my family of origin (especially when others were in bad moods, which was often). By the time I started having relationships with others, I learned that my showing happiness was a trigger for others to dump their shit on me.

It's only recently that I've begun to unpack that.
