Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria Book

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is an intense lack of capacity to process perceived or real criticism, failure, judgement, or rejection. It most commonly affects 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 profound ways it can impact individuals and those around them. Drawing on professional insight and lived experience, this book is a must-read for parents and carers, educators, clinicians, and adults who struggle with RSD themselves,

This book offers insight, understanding and practical guidance without judgement. It explains where RSD comes from, why traditional approaches often miss the mark, and how it can affect relationships, learning, self-esteem, and mental health.

Grounded in years of research, professional practice, and real-world experience, this book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to better understand, support, or live alongside Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.
