ADRejection Sensitivity (RSD) is one of the hardest parts of ADHD. 🥺
On the outside, it can look like anxiety or low self-esteem. In reality, it’s a form of nervous system dysregulation tied to how ADHD brains process social feedback.
It’s the constant fear that you said or did something wrong.
The worry that people are annoyed with you.
The belief you’ve made things awkward, even when nothing actually happened.
Your brain replays and over-analyzes every interaction, searching for proof those fears are true.
These are just a few of the ways RSD shows up in daily life. Which ones hit home for you? Let me know in the comments!
