I've noticed some small cracks in the ceiling near the corner of my bedroom, and there's this yellowish-brown fluid showing up. I'm wondering if it could be moisture from a leaky roof. I went up into the attic, but since it's pretty far from the center of the house, I couldn't spot anything obvious. Also, it's isolated to this one area—no other parts of the ceiling are affected. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

It sounds like you’re dealing with water damage. I’d recommend opening up the ceiling to investigate further—don't wait too long! A leak can lead to more serious issues over time.
Could the water be coming in from outside? And when you say 'open the ceiling,' what do you mean? I can handle some repairs, but I’m not an expert on this stuff.
