Thank you for this! I remember when I first saw rejection sensitivity as an actual symptom of ADHD, it was definitely an aha moment for me. It put words to something I had experienced my whole life.
I had a very similar experience! It has been very validating to realize that there is a neurological reason why I have always been so fearful of rejection and sensitive to criticism
