Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is something that affects many people with ADHD,
Where we can find emotional regulation challenging as we navigate life.
As Dieter Von Teese said,
You can be the juiciest peach on the tree and there will still be someone who doesn't like peaches.
We don't have to be liked by everyone,
But this can sometimes be very hard to accept.
Positive affirmations are a powerful strategy to help regulate emotions in a positive way and help us let go of the need to please and be liked by everyone.
Listening daily can help transform our lives for the better.
You can repeat them silently to yourself,
Or out loud,
Or just listen and let them sink in naturally.
Perhaps afterwards you could even write down any affirmations that were most helpful to you and put them somewhere where you can read them every day.
Writing a list of your strengths and qualities and reminding yourself of this daily can also be very helpful.
