Paranoia
Rejection Sensitivity disorder (RSD)
This is a trait that can be very debilitating for an individual with ADHD. This trait can mean that a person gets incredibly upset or hurt if they have interpreted something that someone has said or a way they have reacted and interpret it as a negative response. It usually is not the case that an individual has actually rejected the individual with ADHD, but the RSD can make a person feel like every comment is aimed at them. This can lead to individuals playing out conversation and every possible outcome before they have happened. Once a conversation is had they will replay the conversation, regretting things they have said, analysing what was said and trying to interpret another person’s thoughts and feelings.
