Hi,
Yes, I have suffered for years from the same problem. At funerals etc, just as you described. I also suffer from some kind of severe social phobia and whenever someone used to speak to me, I became so overwhelmed and the result was inappropriate smiling. I haven't been able to explain this to anyone, but it is obviously upsetting. I thought I must be psychotic or something. By the way, does anyone know if that is usually the case?
