How do I feel less depressed after social rejection? Authenticy buffering against negative feelings of social rejection

Have you ever feel so out of place in a social situation? Have you ever felt so shitty after being rejected by people? I wanted to talk about authenticity and how being yourself makes you feel less depressed after a social rejection. Using a study conducted on authenticity and social rejection, I wanted to bring forward the relationship between authenticity and social rejection. Perhaps, stick around more on what you can do to reduce the negative feelings faced after a rejection from anything in your life. Link to the study: Gino, F., & Kouchaki, M. (2020).
