I was in bed with my wife, when suddenly, (personal reason) I started to tear up, I wiped my eyes so no tears fell, eventually tears started gaining speed and a few managed to roll down my cheeks before I could wipe them, I felt my stomach a bit shaky, I prevented sobbing, my wife placed a hand on my chest, I am pretty sure she felt my ragged breath while I controlled myself and regained composure, as you know time is relative when in a situation, so my best guess is that it lasted between 5-10 minutes.
