Facing rejection sensitive dysphoria and don’t know how to cope? Or wanting to learn more about its treatment? Purchase our four-session, self-paced self-help course, which covers what RSD is, what causes it and how it is treated.

Rejection sensitive dysphoria is a very common experience for over 80% of ADHDers. It is a very instant, painful emotional response to experiences of criticism of rejection. Theories suggest it is caused partly by the emotion regulation differences in ADHD (being 0-100 and experiencing things strongly), impulsivity and from lived experiences of rejection as a result of neurodivergence. Our self-course applies the latest research and evidence to provide a comprehensive understanding of rejection sensitive dysphoria and its management.

Format: On demand, self-paced written information and activities with a workbook. We also have a recorded video series coming soon
Duration: Each module lasts an hour
Entry requirements: Anyone wanting to learn about rejection sensitive dysphoria and its treatment
Cost: £15 workbook-only, or £75 video series (coming soon)
