Do you constantly assume people are mad at you?
You read a short text and think, “I messed up.”
Someone says, “We’ll talk later,” and your brain goes straight to worst-case scenario.
If you have ADHD, this may not just be anxiety — it could be something called Hostile Intent Bias.
In this video, we break down:
• What Hostile Intent Bias actually is
• Why ADHD brains are wired to scan for rejection
• The connection to Rejection Sensitivity (RSD)
• Why ambiguity feels threatening
• How emotional reactivity plays a role
• Practical tools to interrupt the spiral
ADHD isn’t about being dramatic or insecure.
It’s about how the brain processes uncertainty, emotion, and perceived threat.
You’re not broken.
You’re patterned.
And patterns can change.
If this resonates, comment: “Assumed it again.”
Let’s normalize this experience.
Subscribe for more ADHD conversations rooted in understanding, emotional regulation, and growth — not shame.
Because ADHD isn’t a flaw.
It’s part of being human.
