ᯓ★ tips for littles/cgs with RSD . ݁₊ ⊹ . 🌞

note: "Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is a term used to describe intense emotional pain and distress in response to real or perceived rejection or criticism." I am not a professional, these are just some personal tips<3

╰┈➤ focus on self soothing techniques, as well as self empathy and compassion. Be gentle with yourself, you didn't choose to feel these things, so don't treat yourself like you did.

╰┈➤ don't forget that your value is NOT dependant on others' opinions of you. You are your own being, and that is beautiful <3

╰┈➤ recognize everyone makes mistakes, and you are worth as much love as everyone else, even if you have emotions deeper than others.

╰┈➤ know the way you feel isn't silly or stupid, and don't diminish your feelings to being these such things.

╰┈➤ try and self soothe, whether that be through distractions like reading, journaling, etc. Use positive affirmations to combat self hatred and negative self talk

╰┈➤ identify your own triggers, keep track of how you respond to certain situations, and what may trigger episodes of major dysphoria.

╰┈➤ remember to be mindful, take deep breaths and practice grounding when you're beginning to spiral.

╰┈➤ don't be afraid to ask for reassurance, you deserve to feel safe.

╰┈➤ remember to practice the STAR method, STAR stands for Stop, Think, Act, Recover. Using this method, you can help to process larger emotions with more ease.

╰┈➤ when dwelling on a negative interaction, try and see it from a different perspective. How else may of someone meant their words?

╰┈➤ don't be afraid to seek support of friends and family, and communicate your experiences and RSD.

╰┈➤ set boundaries to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings, and follow through with them. Boundaries don't make you a bad person.

╰┈➤ remember to take time for yourself. Engage in hobbies and self care, you are loved and deserve good things.

╰┈➤ if possible, seek professional help, whether through therapy or medication.

i wanna go to school with other littles and have it divided by grades thru elementary ! i wanna wake up in the morning and pack my lil backpack and have a carer pack my lunch, take my sippy and maybe a favorite plush with me, get all buckled in the car and dropped off! i wanna hug my carer bye and then get to see all my little friends. we could have different activity stations and different grade levels and practice times tables, addition, or counting depending on our levels! practice sight words or read simple books, and have circle reading time! the teacher would pick a book and we could all sit on a rug in a circle and listen carefully, waiting to see the pictures! we could have chapter books like Junie B. Jones and Goosebumps for older kids, and touch and feel sight word books for littler ones! we could have coloring stations, bracelet making stations, and themed activities/crafts for seasons or holidays :3 and then have lunch time and recess outside with a big grassy field and playground!!! i wanna turn in worksheets and get stickers on them and bring activities home to my carer to have them put on the fridge :,)
