Hi everyone, I lost two friends last year because I don’t stop to think before I text. I turned a very small issue into something big (made assumptions in my head), and I feel so guilty about it. One of my former friends told me she couldn’t bear my impulsiveness when I tried apologising. They moved on quickly, but I can’t seem to let it go. I keep thinking about it even though it’s been months. It feels very catastrophic for some reason, and as if I won’t be able to make friends again.
I also have strong RSD, and throughout our friendship I always thought maybe they didn’t like me, and then when they’d do something nice I’d think I was wrong.
Have you lost friends due to symptoms caused by ADHD? How did you manage to get over it?
I do have a prescription for Vyvanse but I don’t take it regularly yet because I also have insomnia and it worsens it, I’ll start taking it though.
