I have the same problem and I ashamed of it.
I notice this weird emotion coming up, I know it is not normal and all I can do is moving my face in a different way,keep it from going all :)
I wish I could do something about it, other than trying to repress the feeling but everything I done so far, just pushed me towards either depressive states or being toodetached. Or getting mad about both the emotional impairment, because that's just what it is, and whatever I am witnessing that should make me compelled but instead, makes me giggle and smile and sometimes even grin. Most people I know who have this, strange way of reacting, are usually in denial or accepted it as an inextricable part of their own personality. And that is just fucked up. Like: mom? I just told you I am not feeling well and you are smirking. Did you notice? What? How is it you get in a good mood whenever I tell you I am not feeling well? And she goes: it's not true! And I go: yeah mom. It's all in my mind. I am imagining things. Whatever.
Finally, someone with the same problem! I'm glad I'm not completely alone.. Haha
I feel the exact same way. And do the exact same things. I think you described it better than I did.
And my mother does the same thing. Makes me feel like a freak. Doesn't believe me. All that.
I wonder if there's a name for it.. The emotional impairment, as you put it.
Is it normal to smile when people are in pain?
