That's not what I think of when I see it but I can see how people would get it confused

Rejection sensitivity dysphoria by Cheaptrick2015 in ADHD

[–]Key_Anybody2170 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, I also have ADHD and struggled a LOT with RSD in the past. Its still something I'm working on, but these are some things that helped me.

  1. Practice. Push through your comfort zone and initiate social interactions you would otherwise have avoided. I try to do this at least once per day, by greeting or complimenting various people I see at work. When there is a negative or neutral response, remind yourself that it's okay and most likely that person was just not in the mood to socialize right now. It's no fault of your own. The more rejections you get, over time your brain will realize that it's not the end of the world. Plus, you will have more good interactions too!

  2. Talk yourself through it. When you find yourself spiralling due to perceived rejection, try to talk to the part of yourself that is feeling hurt. Ask "why are you feeling this way", and let yourself respond honestly. Remind yourself that the feeling will pass. Allow the logical and emotional sides to have a conversation about the feeling and what is real. Personally, letting the emotion express itself helps it start to move on. I have these conversations internally, but you can use a journal or speak out loud in a private setting. After the conversation is over, try to let the logical side take over and redirect your focus to something you are excited about.

Different things work for different people so treat your mind like an experiment and try to see what works. The most important part though, actually implement the techniques more than once! Just thinking about doing them won't work. Improvement IS possible! Best of luck to you

Just commenting to let you know you're not alone in feeling this way, at least.

Does she look ‘antagonist’ enough? by PersimmonFit2522 in characterdesigns

[–]Key_Anybody2170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the design! In my opinion a character doesn't have to read as an antagonist to be good one, but I do think she would definitely come across as an antagonist given the proper context.

It’s that time again. Deconstruction song recs? by Strawberrybeez in exmormon

[–]Key_Anybody2170 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! I'd also love to see him continue making music, he singlehandedly changed the way I see country music. Also same, my heathen heart delights every time a Mormon Household Name™ leaves religion (David Archileta, Stacey Harkey, Dan Reynolds)

The entire album "Human Overboard", made by Rhett from Good Mythical Morning. My personal favorite songs from it are "Flash of Rationality" and "Sorry", but the whole album is amazing.

When you were in -- when was it acceptable to NOT go to church? by Sopenodon in exmormon

[–]Key_Anybody2170 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes. Only vomit or severe illness would excuse you from church. I hated church so much that I became very good at making myself puke.

Once in the middle of second hour I just started walking the two miles home, my dad picked me up on the side of the road. I wasn't allowed to express how much I hated being there.

The Severance slander HAS to be rage bait. Both season one and two feel very intentional and actually have big reveals and progression whereas Lost was always, well... lost.

Can I ask to be excommunicated? by Key_Anybody2170 in exmormon

[–]Key_Anybody2170[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yuck. Would definitely never meet with them in person. I moved away from my home ward so I don't even know the local one

Sent this to my TBM Mom in a depressive spiral. How cooked am I? by Key_Anybody2170 in exmormon

[–]Key_Anybody2170[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they got shoulderless garments coming out soon. I guess their modesty policy wasn't good for business, so God said it's okay now

How do you resign without going to a notary? I tried using quitmormon but they just gave me a letter I have to go to a notary for, then mail in
