    Well, expressing emotions requires overwhelming visceral emotions, but those are kinda vague and weak/barely existing things. Those are just mostly background subconscious subroutines/thinking patterns, only noticable when observed over long time frames(years). Not something that actually has the power to cause facial expressions.

    Though i have alexithymia too, so just a blind person guessing the colors of the rainbow.

      Ironically enough, my alexthymia means that I often don’t know when my face is expressing emotions. I might be grinning ear to ear and assume I have a poker face
