A lot of people think rejection sensitivity is mainly overreaction.
But often it begins in our body before our mind has words for it.
Triggers, such as:
A delayed reply.
A shorter message.
A distracted tone.
And suddenly our body reacts:
chest drop
tight throat
held breath
instant dread
Rejection Sensitivity is often a signal.
Not weakness.
Protection.
What helps underneath is skill-building:
Somatic Attunement
Adaptive Emotional Processing
Healthy Self-Worth
