What is rejection sensitivity?

Rejection sensitivity is a tendency to anticipate, vividly perceive and react intensely to rejection, whether real or imagined. A comment, a silence or an unanswered message can trigger deep emotional pain, often out of proportion to others but very real for the person feeling it.

Why it matters

This heightened sensitivity to rejection is very common in people with ADHD or autism. It can feed anxiety, avoidance of relationships or an intense need to please. Recognizing it lets you put words to these waves of emotion and gradually build gentler responses toward yourself.
