Many individuals with ADHD are highly sensitive to emotional stimuli. This means that they can be easily affected by situations, comments, or experiences that may not have the same emotional impact on others. For example:
Emotional Sensitivity: An offhand comment or constructive criticism may feel like a personal attack, triggering a strong emotional response like sadness or anger.
Emotional Overload: In chaotic or overstimulating environments (e.g., noisy workplaces, social gatherings), someone with ADHD might feel emotionally overwhelmed, leading to frustration, irritability, or even shutting down.
