Does anyone else have trouble taking criticism? But not in the “what are you talking about, I do everything right!” kind of way; I’m talking about the “oh God what else am I doing wrong?????” kind 😱 like, all of a sudden, any sort of “you could be doing this better” just immediately translates into “you’re doing this wrong” and I know they can be mutually exclusive things but my brain’s just like NOPE 😂

      I hear you! I’ve had to work on it, especially professionally. I still get really upset if I perceive feedback as being critical in my relationships though. ☹️ I don’t think I’m flawless, I just always hope nobody else notices my flaws!!

      No, I invite criticism. But a lot people with adhd don’t like it including my dad. I also like criticizing people because I like helping people but I criticize myself the most , sometimes too much. Try to not take it personal, if someone criticizes you it means they care about you.

      I find it very hard too! When it’s a co-worker/boss I’m like oh god I do it all wrong why can’t I be better. Sometimes when it’s who I am close with I’m like jeez you think I’m dumb? And I’ll be snarky which I hate and I feel like a b*tch. Then I feel like I’m a terrible person anyway. It’s like ur urban cow said too I think about both for ever and if I say the wrong thing to someone or think I offended them I can really sometimes feel like I never let it go 😥. It can be frustrating when I think about something I did “wrong” for years I really put myself down about it. I need to learn how to let go of things. I hope this is relatable sorry for the long response!

      God yes. Anyone could say something as a joke and I will think about it for weeks
