I'm a guy, so I apologize for intruding, but if you'll have me:

I recently learned what RSD is while having a panic attack after my wife made a small off-hand comment. Couldn't figure out for the life of me why it felt like my entire life was falling apart just from that, and it wasn't the first time it had happened, so I ended up looking into it.

I gotta say, knowing this is a "thing" actually really helps. Every time this happens, the fact I'm not able to explain it always makes me feel even worse, so being able to point to this has actually eased a lot of my symptoms.
