Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria as a part of ADHD
Do I have RSD? I don’t know. I reread the article, it says usually the crashes just last for hours, mine last a day or two. Still, I’m certainly overly sensitive and over reactive, although pretty it’s pretty much limited to my wife.
I’ve thought the overreaction was just due to so many failures and so much criticism which comes with our ADHD, such damage to our self esteem, that we were fragile, vulnerable and oversensitive to any negative input. I hadn’t imagined it as a syndrome, a symptom, or a separate diagnosis.
Anyway, whatever, it’s a booger.

love the poems. if you need somebody to help out with reviewing the book, let me know. I know a couple people who xould really benefit from reading it and I could count on then to be accountable to provide you with a meaningful review.
sidenote: your follow-up-of-the-day is medical cannabis. I would love to hear some of your thoughts on that and how it could effect the readers of your blog with supplementing psychopharmacological treatments for their adhd and other potential comorbid disorders
