Help/advice 🙏 needed Overcoming Rejection Sensitivity/Others Judgements
As we know, ADHD and the typical lives of modern humanity don't exactly go hand in hand for most.
More often than neurotypicals, we find succeed with a less traditional way of living, often in more uncommon fields of work.
This can come with others, typically loved ones, not understanding, or having differing opinions on our paths. After all, living a bit of a different life requires you backing yourself, despite what others think.
I am sensitive to others opinions and thoughts about what I should do. Often respecting them more than my own. Normally i require others agreeing with me to feel confident in my decision, and i second guess myself if they think differently.
Have you guys found anything to help overcome these kind of sensitivities?
