> Emotional control really is the the skill. When I was diagnosed with ADHD I learned that emotional disregulation was a part of it.

I agree. I think emotional control and social navigation are sort of, but not entirely related. My ADHD inspired emotional disregulation meant people often found me difficult to be around, the emotional swings made them uncomfortable.

I became happier and more successful when I started learning to be less toxic, to control my emotions, or at least not make it other peoples problem.
