Overly Sensitive and Emotional Mess

I have no advice because I haven’t figured it out myself, but i’m extremely sensitive too. Good luck for both of us >_<

You are definitely not alone. I actually find myself being more emotionally sensitive around dogs. I have emotion hit me like that sometimes and I feel crazy but I know tons of other people with ADHD go through it as well. Keep going!

I've gone through things like that too. It feels so terrible when you're crying and have no freaking clue why! Something to look into too is what I'll call broadly "emotional vulnerability factors" and "emotional vulnerability." It's all the things that play into our vulnerability to emotion. It includes things like sleep/rest, proper diet and hydration, self-talk, etc. Emotional vulnerability is a concept from DBT therapy and it sounds like what you're experiencing. You are not alone! Be kind to yourself, friend ❤

You might want to look into rsd (rejection sensitivity dysphoria). It’s common in people with adhd and sounds like it might describe what you’re dealing with

LMAFOOOO

Hi Nickster! Thank you for sharing and giving me you to relate to. We will get through this! I can completely agree with you, I too wish I could be a little tougher but that’s probably what makes us great people. We can cry together 💙

Hi JustPeachy1.618 I get ya believe me. I've always been overly sensitive and emotional. I never want to make ppl mad and I can cry for no reason. It's hard being like this. I wish I could get a backbone but I'm struggling with that.

I also have ADHD which could be why I’m so overwhelmed with emotions. Ugh life’s so annoying 😅
