I am the wrong person to ask about this, considering I was that person in school and in fact had the opposite reaction: if I stopped smiling for even a minute, I had overly concerned friends asking me “What’s wrong?” and refusing to believe me when I said nothing, which then got me irritated because I couldn’t go a minute without smiling around them before I got bothered, which they believed validated their concern.

I walked away at that point to be alone and not surrounded by people who thought my only facial expression was smiling, and if I wasn’t smiling something was terribly wrong.
