This is is absolutely the most damaging part of my ADHD

[@Hyphonz]

Really good seminar, I was not prepared for the several bouts of crying I did listening to this

[@Awakening717]

Excellent webinar

[@queenofscots839]

Definitely… even now after years of mis diagnosis, if I don’t get enough sleep, extreme emotions I can and still do on occasion have emotional upheaval…

[@leilap2495]

Very validating. I am sharing this with family members to help them better understand. My biggest RSD triggers are invalidating comments from family and inadequate educational accommodations. It feels like I’m a little kid being judged poorly for being different all over again. I’ve also seen the response referred to as an emotional flashback, like in PTSD.

Thank you.

Thank you for this webinar! I did notice that artwork by Gemma Correll was used in the presentation without credit, which may have been unknowing, but it would be great if someone from ADDitude could acknowledge this

this gets tricky when 2 people with disorders are married to each other and have 1 out of 2 kids with it. imagine a person with adhd/rsd trying to believe she can support herself enough to get out of an emotionally abusive marriage to someone with narcissistic pd and ptsd and social anxiety. when he curses and attacks her with the cruelest cutting comments he can come up with for 3 hours straight she may think rsd is making me overreact, stopping me from bouncing back and getting over it so she stays with him but this is where a therapist can provide an objective perspective and let u know even though the pain may be intense to break up its best to try to get out or have a separation

[@lauriegibens955]

amazing yayy🎉

[@jenA9026]

Ummm... I just wish these could be broken down into shorter times. An hour is literally daunting for me 😮

[@ayeshasyed9158]

i put it on 1.5 speed while doing other things, took a break for half an hour in the middle and plan to come back to it, lets see how that plays out 😅

[@emmamoat9992]

I put it on 1.5 or 1.75 speed to help with this
