I have no ideas for the room situation, but... The one time I remember bursting into tears for no reason was when I was fourteen (I was a late bloomer and hit menarche around then too). My mom figured it was puberty related, did not pester me for reasons (I'm sure she did ask why at least once, though), let me cry it out, didn't bug me (my mom's generally a much more touchy-feely person than I am) and then gave me a ride to school so I wouldn't be late. Nearly two and a half decades later, I remember it as one of her more shining parenting moments.
