Does anyone else have a hard time expressing their emotions normally?

Like I don't know why but i can’t express my feelings well at all. I can’t express how I’m feeling properly at all.

I don't know if it’s my autism or what but…everyone else can express their excitement, gratefulness, Affection, appreciation, happiness. etc, but when I experience it, it just comes like a blank expression or just neutral attitude or just a smile that’s it. Thing is tho if it’s through song I can express other emotions easily but only if it’s through song.

I'm better at expressing emotions non-verbally, than describing them. It's a bit of a challenge: One needs to allow vulnerability (trust the other party), and focus on the what it actually is (maybe even admit stuff to oneself). I doubt lots of people find that super easy.

Well, I was about to say maybe you have autism but then I read on and saw that you do. That's probably very likely the case for you, that is definitely an autism thing.

I don't have that problem but I understand there are others who do.

How do you express your emotions?

[MUSICTOKU099125]

Wdym you don’t have that problem

[ManOnFire]

You look inward and process what you're feeling. Anger, sadness, joy, etc. You just talk about them, or write about it. Or even pray about it. Expression can even be in different things like art or music.

I don't have that problem because I don't have autism. It's something you will need to try to work through. Maybe even with therapy. It's okay.

I can’t express my emotions properly. I can only express my emotions through music

[MUSICTOKU099125]

I can’t even show happiness, gratefulness or appreciation when I’m supposed to

If you suppress one emotion you suppress all of them. The usual culprit is anger but i can only guess

[MUSICTOKU099125]

What?

[MountainMetal]
