Hello everybody!!

My mind is hating the way I am smiling. Why? I have a genetic defect with chromosome problems. The main reason in this case is, that I get full of anxiety when I have to show my smile . My anxiety is thaät people laugh about the way my underlip is looking. My underlip is figuring out crazy a crazy look even I am smiling.

The generating anxiety is that I cant show my smile to other people anymore. My mouth stays most time closed because I imaginate the fact that people who dont know it laugh about it. So I get fearful to share my smile with people who are smiling normally.

How can I show my smile without fearing infront of others?

Thanks for reading.

When people get to know you they really don't care what you look like, and if you care about the uninformed opinions of strangers then you will be jerked around by your own inappropriate caring.

You wrote the same thread before. Stop being so self-absorbed. No one cares about your supposedly 'crooked smile'.

Cosmetic surgery.

Also when you say "cheese" ?

It´s hard to imagine.
You just pull both lips in a bow upwards. Like a smiley.

How about showing teeth instead ?
