I’m an adult women dx ADHD-I.. I am a knowledge seeking existentialist and my mind is blown by the concept of Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria. I am text book that.. its definitely a thing in my life that I had yet to understand or have a name for. Thank you for sharing. I actually teared up.
For me, Information is power and when I don’t understand myself (why I react the way I do sonetimes).. I’m frustrated and then some strange doubt comes over me..
Truth be told.. I have zero reason in life to feel less than proud of myself, yet, the ole ADHD insecurities pop up and doubt sets in, sneaking in and out of my life sometimes daily or weekly. Funny thing, a nap generally is the cure.
Anyway.. you’ve helped me understand myself a bit better and that is priceless! Cheers.
