And this is worry specifically about ways that you have been rejected, that you
you perceive that may or may not have actually happened or ways that you've actually been rejected that everyone would agree on is a cruel or a taunting or humiliation.
And you can't actually kind of let go of that.
You can become very focused on the possibility of rejection, the fear of rejection, and then that will sort of hold you back from behaving in social situations in ways that you would want to act comfortable, funny yourself, whatever, because you're so worried.
worried about this possibility.
And so rejection sensitivity dysphoria and social anxiety share two things.
One is a core belief in deficiency.
I'm not okay the way I am.
I'm not smart enough.
I'm not uh pretty enough, I'm not athletic enough, whatever it is, you just add that adjective in and put enough after it and you're good.
The second thing that happens for both of them, particularly for social anxiety, and we do this with rejection, sensitivity, dysphoria, but is that you think you know what other people are thinking about you.
So you're anticipating a response from people that may or may not exist with social anxiety and with RSD, you're anticipating rejection or you've experienced rejection.
And so that leads you to have a kind of a distorted perspective on things about when it's going to occur and how devastating it will be to you.
The thing about RSD that's different from, oh, I'm just, I don't like rejection, is that it's not like, oh, that feels bad.
It's like you physically feel like you've been punched in the gut.
You sink.
There's a sinking feeling.
You maybe you want to throw up.
or you just can't restabilize.
There's a traumatic aspect to it.
