I was hoping someone could help me to correct this problem. It's creating havoc in my life. Thanks for your help in advance. Reply to this Question

As the other poster wrote, try to practice in a mirror in order to work on your facial features. If you find yourself in a situation that could cause you to make a certain facial expression, try to focus or think about something pleasant or something that makes you feel content. (So that you appear to have a pleasant/neutral expression.) Otherwise if you can't work it out, just accept that you have a very expressive face. You could try out for your community theater and be in a play!

reader, anonymous, writes (27 November 2009): i can sympathize with your problem. I too have had this problem. I was known for showing my every feeling but I overcame it by sheer will power. I faced a situation where i had to sit under someone for 6~8 hrs per week who was intent on destroying me emotionally. During this 2 yr period of time i learned to hide behind an expressionless facade. That was 6 yrs ago, and i do hide my pain and distresses well now. Practice with a mirror as silly as it may sound, i found it very helpful. I know it can be done. Good luck! Mal
