@NoraReed See, this is my thing about ADHD people having RSD. When people reject you multiple times every waking hour, of every day, of every year of your life simply because your brain functions differently than most people’s, then yes, you tend to be a little sensitive it to rejection. It’s not a disorder, it’s trauma.
I have a very hard time handling people I care about being upset at me— and even the smallest things make me afraid that they are. I can’t believe I literally JUST LEARNED that there’s a term for it, Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD), and it’s very common for people with ADHD. So I thought I’d post about it, just in case I’m not the last person on the internet hearing about it.

Got me the lovely Picture disc of that album at last year's #RSD. So So good.
Record Store Day 2023 is in the bag! (Ha!) As usual, didn’t get everything I wanted, but very happy with the stuff I did get. Looking forward to listening to the Jerry Harrison and Dirty Projectors/Björk releases. What did you get? #RSD #RSD2023 #RecordStoreDay #RecordSoreDay2023

Some would say charging £65 for a 10 track Bowie release with 2 versions of the Laughing Gnome is the height of #RecordStoreDay hysteria. I reckon it’s the world finally acknowledging it’s his best track. #RSD

Get in line for #RSD, will be selling an exclusive variant of Catharsis exclusively through Spin Me Round Records. Strictly limited to first come-first serve offer until Monday (depending on stock). 💚
A record store is for life, not just for Christmas.
Morgen eens rustig kijken op https://www.recordstoreday.nl waar we heen gaan. Meestal naar #Delft op de fiets. #RSD #muziek 🎵
@neurodivers 2 kurze Anmerkungen zu dem - interessanten - Thread:
1. Fachliteratur bezweifelt z.T., ob #RSD eigenes Krankheitsbild ist oder "nur" #Persönlichkeitsmerkmal (woher auch immer). M.E. erleben es aber viele Menschen, dh. ist es sinnvoll, dafür Bezeichnung zu haben.
2. Schnelles Abklingen mag bei #ADHS klappen. Wenn #RSD auf Trauma basiert, kann das aber extrem lange dauern, weil #Amigdala verändert ist. So erfahre ich es selbst.

<i>Reservoir</I> by Fanfarlo is a record that feels less celebrated than it should be (in the US anyway). I think any comparisons I’d make would diminish it, it’s just smart, British indie pop. This was the #RSD reissue that came with a second disk of unreleased songs and demos… the one to get in my view. #fanfarlo #vinyl #musudon #MusicMonday

I should probably tell them; I want communication and a long term relationship with them
But everytime I wore a skirt, earrings, bra or long hair
then everytime my earrings got larger, skirt shorter, glasses thicker, or more colorful and more myself in appearance
I received negative feedback
So this change in my hormones and appearance won't be met with support, just confusion and the assumption that I haven't thought the decision through for most of my life

A toot thread of trying guanfacine to treat rejection sensitive dysphoria:
I'm an #ADHDer and #autist I have rejection sensitive dysphoria or #RSD
This evening before going to bed I will be taking the first dose of guanfacine, an alpha agonist that is sometimes used as a non-stimulant med for adhd in adolescents, but evidence is accumulating that it can treat RSD in adults with adhd.
Recommendation is start taking at night, as it can cause drowsiness. Do not take with high fat meals.
@IzabelaKaramia I was reading about #RSD this morning after I read something you wrote about it. I think I used to struggle with this when I was younger, I’m grateful I don’t anymore. I don’t know if it’s because I got older or if it’s because I realized that most people are shit. I am just happy to be free from it & I hope you will be too someday. ❤️ My brother also had #ADHD and he was a huge people pleaser, so I think he struggled with RSD, but I blamed our parents for that.
After this toot I found out I wasn't getting a job I really wanted 🤣😭 but at least I'm working with an organization in my job search so I have help and advice etc. But it's still so hard for me. It takes all my emotional energy. #ADHD #RSD #traumarecovery
Talked to my husband and showed him the screenshots of the weird incident where someone blocked me because I asked about their art. His response was, "People are weird." It's a mystery why that happened, and because of my #RSD, it did make me feel really bad. I'm alright now, just really confused by that reaction.
omfg I have done this so much in my life - combined with the inability to know when is the right time to speak due to my missing social cues.
This is from #AlexGraudins’ ‘Improve’ about her struggle with #socialAnxiety. And soooo many behaviors are familiar to me 😞
