Sometimes if I see someone say that my hyperfixation(s) is overrated or just bad it genuinely makes me want to cry. I love it so much that it’s a part of who I am and it honestly feels like they’re attacking me as a person. Like ofc people can say they don’t like something and it’s totally fine but like it still really hurts

i don't share mine with people that aren't invested in them, which generally means i don't talk about them and just make extensive journals in my closet, but i think i've heard this one in a couple variations anyway :'3 it SUCKS and you described the feeling perfectly, aagh.

though to be fair literally anything can make me cry so-

I've never had someone say that my hyperfixations and special interests are overrated, but that's usually because I don't share them to the world that much. I do tend to feel like crying when someone says that they don't like the things I like and think that those things are just bad or cringy though. I have bad rejection sensitive dysphoria and I hate any kind of judgement towards me and the groups of people that I belong to because of it. Sometimes I will go into a spiral of looking at what people are saying about people like me and I just can't stop making myself feel bad by looking at that kind of stuff, but eventually I feel better and like I'm above other people's opinions again. It's a process to learn how to just unappologetically be yourself and to not care about what other people think, but hopefully you will get to that point. People will always be mean to others that they see as different. There will also always be people who like you for who you are. Sending you love and smiles

I have really bad RSD so I get this a lot, but I don't get sad I either feel shame or angry...I've been trying to unlearn this though (mostly the shame I feel)

unfortunately this is likely rsd or Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, this is a super common thing with neurodivergent folks. I used to be this exact same way but dw it gets easier!! <3

I used to, now I just cope with it better, it is something you should try and work with if it really affects you, but yeah I used to get really worked up when it happened, - algae
