I have pretty much one of four things going on emotionally. These are ordered from what I experiance the most to what I experiance the least.

Flat affect-some emotion
Flat affect-no emotion
Wrong emotional presentation for what I'm feeling. Including emotional presentation with no emotion attached. Empty-smiling.
Extreme presentation of emotion. Generally associated with anger and frusteration and at times extreme joy (the happy-flappy dance, you have to see it).

Most of the time I have no expression (flat affect, I guess). My coworkers poked fun at me for it, once. Saying things like "I'm Michelle, and I'm sad" : | "I'm Michelle, and I'm depressed" : | "I'm Michelle, and I'm really really excited" : | .


Sometimes I get expressions on my face that I am not aware of, and usually they either don't match my emotional state, or they do match my emotional state, but I am not conciously aware of how I am feeling despite the fact that it's showing on my face. Usually this happens only with strong emotions.

Hmm I voted wrong I think... so I guess I can explain. I have too many emotions. But I dont show them most the time. I do show them when I have already had too much and more is added on thats why I get emotional. But that is probably how everyone is. I dont know.

That's really cute, in a strange way. Better than being ignored, I guess.

Heheh, yeah, I guess so. I thought it was funny, actually. They were pleased that they made me laugh. (Though it's really not too hard to do).
