Hey lovelies 馃┓

Is anybody aware of an existing word in English or any other language for the intense pain of being misunderstood?

We're thinking specifically about the kinda of pain that neurospicy folks often feel from being constantly misunderstood by others, but particularly by non-neurospicy folks.

It's usually a cumulative pain that builds up over years or even decades, and factors into neurodivergent experiences like Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) AutismInfinitySymbol ADHD_Butterfly

Thanks in advance 馃

Edit:
Here are some examples of the type of word we're looking for:

  • Nostalgia
  • Anemoia

We lack sufficient knowledge of correctly combining ancient Greek words to find the correct words and forms for "being misunderstood" and "pain".
