New TV series ‘Adolescence’, they are about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.

It seems extremely difficult for a person with #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria to have emotionally-stable relationships with people who are unwilling or unable to directly address interpersonal issues.

For example, if I can't trust someone to tell me truthfully whether they are upset with me or not, I will be inclined to constantly worry about the status of my relationship with them.

On my end, I'm working on my emotional issues, but I don't see a reason to play on hard mode.

I WAS WRONG! MY FAMILY MEMBER WASN'T MAD AT ME, THEY WERE HAVING MIGRAINES! You have no idea how relieved I feel to have this air cleared. So glad I was wrong and was able to send them my love instead of spending the rest of the evening worrying that I'd been an irretrievable asshole. That's #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria combined with #rumination... it's a real issue for us #ADHD folks & it can be a doozy if it goes on unchecked. Finally, that churning emotion has my brain's permission to rest.

le conducteur enerve (pour rien) sur mon chemin ce matin vient de me pourrir ma journee (oui, je sais. Mais je suis comme ca. Et j'ai tout essaye pour que ca change mais ca change pas).
Je me glisse sous la couette, sur le canape pour un peu de douceur et je ne prevois rien aujourd'hui...

To all my #autistic, #ADHD, and #AuDHD friends here:

Please take a minute to read about #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria (aka #RSD) if you aren't already aware of it.

Being aware of this temporary hell that many of us visit from time to time can help to cope with it. It helps, too, to know that you are not alone in feeling this way sometimes, and that your feelings are *lying to you* when they tell you that you don't deserve to live.

I think we react this way because of trauma. I don't think it's intrinsic to our brain wiring. The world tells us so often that we are human garbage. You are not garbage. Every human life has value, including your own.

[Please boost for visibility.]

I hae a fair bit of trouble asking people oot. I think it is a combination of my intense fear of #rejection coupled with my #anxiety over putting someone on the wee spot. Most of the time I just donnae bother wi it. #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria #BPD #Dating #Polyamory #fear

Having #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria is challenging when you just lost your job...
I take everything personally

Hello rumination, my old friend...

Since #MyADHD diagnosis, a lot of things have made more sense. One thing I’m happy to have learned about is Rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD). I’m not happy I experience it, but I am happy to name it. Naming it helps take away some of its power over me.

I’m definitely experiencing this today. Given the trigger, I suspect it will take a while to move on from it. But, at least I know the cause and I know that I will get through it. Eventually.

I need a close friend what hae the courage tae be very blunt wi me. I bide in the South where lying is part of the culture. #CharacterFlaws #Ghosting #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria #SelfLoathing #Dating #Polyamory

Why must people lie? Socially ahv been turnt doon more than the bedding at the Luxor in Vegas. WHY must people ghost me instead of just saying "get tae fuck!" or something tae that effect? My #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria and #OCPD responds better tae truth. #dating #polyamory #relationships #old #ExpiredWarranty #fat #boring #MyBrainIsSeriouslyBroken #MajorDepressiveDisorder #Dysthymia

Yay I hae a wee #date tomorrow and ah will actually show up! #RejectionSensitiveDysphoria #SelfLoathing

OK, last ADHD post of the day. I really identify with this video about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria:

Particularly;

"Do you ever experience your emotions as a physical sensation, as though you’ve been punched in the chest..."

Hell yes.

"Do you feel shame about the 'lack of control' you have over your emotions?"

Yup.
