One thing that really reframed this for me recently, was learning that we actually lose access to our prefrontal cortex when RSD strikes, and only our emotional centers are activated - and highly activated. We need a break because we literally cannot access the part of the brain that helps us to resolve the real or perceived conflict. That gave me (and my partner) a lot of understanding for these situations.
