Overview

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is an intense lack of capacity to process real or perceived failure, criticism, judgment or rejection. It commonly impacts neurodivergent children and adults, particularly those with ADHD. In this easy-to-read, informative and valuable book, Rebecca Challoner explores what Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria really is, how it shows up in everyday life and the many profound ways it can impact those who experience it, as well as the people around them. Written from both the lived and professional perspective this book is an enlightening and accessible resource for parents and carers, educators, clinicians and adults who themselves struggle with RSD, as well as employers, partners, family members and friends. This book offers insight, understanding and practical guidance without judgement. It explains where RSD comes from, how it can affect relationships, learning, self-esteem and mental health and why traditional approaches often miss the mark. Grounded in professional knowledge, years of research and lived experience, Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria is an essential resource for anyone supporting a neurodivergent child or adult, or for those seeking understanding and effective strategies for the experiences they struggle with.
