I leverage hyperfocus as a superpower at work, but it has its downsides. Coworkers say my name’s not “Disguy,” it’s “Disguy Disguy Disguy Disguy Disguy…”
There are a ton of relatable quotes from this study. One that got me was:
“I listen to all feedback and take everything to heart, even if not directly aimed at me. I’m consumed with the feeling I’m not good enough. An example is when my husband moans about the messy pan cupboard it makes me feel like a failure. I know it’s not exactly directed at me but I take it to heart and it makes me feel inadequate and like I can’t get anything right. This is true for most things.”
