People with ADHD often experience Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) an intense, overwhelming emotional reaction to even perceived criticism or rejection.
A casual comment can hit like a punch to the gut. A mild correction feels like total failure. Someone’s tone can feel like outright hatred.
It’s not being “too sensitive” or dramatic. Your brain literally struggles to regulate the intensity of that emotional pain.
It’s neurological, not a character flaw
i hate to admit it but I get jealous very easily but not like an angry vengeful jealous more like a really sad lonely jealous because everybody i've loved has always loved someone else and i can't seem to get over it
"but you survived."
i dissociate, like, a lot. my heart drops when someone raises their voice. i shut down very easily. i'm far too observant. i isolate often.
but yeah, sure. i guess i survived.
Getting an ADHD diagnosis later in life really makes you re-read your whole story.
Suddenly, a lot clicks:
• Why being in crowds doesn’t just tire you, it wipes you out for days
• Why you’ve always felt things so deeply, even when others didn’t
• Why “too sensitive” followed you around like a label
• Why your brain is always busy, even when you’re trying to rest
• Why starting simple things can feel heavy for no clear reason
• Why you notice patterns, moods, and shifts other people miss
• Why you’ve always looked for meaning in your own way
• And yeah… why things like tarot felt strangely natural to you
It wasn’t you being difficult or “too much.”
It was your brain processing life differently this whole time.
Now it just… makes sense.

sebenernya enggak ada niatan untuk ngediemin sama sekali, cuma kamu ya mana paham, gimana rasanya disepelein sama hal-hal kecil yang kamu anggap biasa aja itu.
@jianghubase Ngobrol intens bukan berarti pacaran sih... aku dan partnership ku lebih ke transaksional literally cuman main seminggu sekali buat naikin poin partnershipnya... literally partner kerja buat poin wkwkwk
