How to make my smile look natural etc. XD#I often hide emotions related to my autism though. I don't like attention placed on me for behaving different‚ thank you.#I still pick body language and facial expressions that I like‚ mimic them and soon they're part of my automatic expressions too.#I think many people do this‚ just not consciously.
