Any time I receive criticism that I have a strong reaction to, I’ll take a 5-10 minute break to process. What helps is going outside for that time.
Before I review my formal feedback, I plan to take my lunch after so I can go for a short walk and process my thoughts over it.
Then I put it to the back of my mind and wait until the end of the day to further analyze the criticism (how can I best address it in my upcoming actions).
Going outside gives me a different place to process everything than being inside at the place I received the criticism.

Getting some perspective is helpful. Watch a YouTube video of poor people struggling to exist in Africa. Don’t sweat the small stuff. And cherish that you aren’t perfect. ADHD is a superpower but has its faults.

I was over 50 when I pieced together how so many of the mini mental traumas I had in my life were attributed to RSD. It still happens to me now and then. If valid, try to see criticism for what it is, a learning opportunity. Or I ignore the critics entirely now.
