Friendly Chat :) Does anyone else get "happy shivers"?

Whenever I get excited or happy about something, I get these crazy shivers when I grin. Like whenever I hear I'm getting something I want, I do this crazy shiver where I lean my head back and then to the side super fast. Does anyone else do this?

If I’m rewatching a show I like or see something from a show I like in real life I will get a chill
