Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is one of the most emotionally painful experiences faced by many individuals with ADHD. It refers to an intense, overwhelming emotional response to real or perceived rejection, criticism, or failure.

While everyone dislikes being rejected, people with RSD often feel it more deeply, more suddenly, and with a level of intensity that can be difficult for others to understand. Research suggests that 70–90% of people with ADHD experience some form of RSD, shaping their self-esteem, relationships, and sense of identity.

RSD isn’t a character flaw. It’s a neurobiological response, and understanding it is the first step toward healing.

If you would like support in managing RSD, book a FREE intake call with our principal psychologist by calling 07 3185 5635.

What if instead of “forgetting,” we remembered and created something new? 🌱

Overcoming emotional pain isn’t about moving on.
It’s about moving through.

This year, I reconnected with the creative kid I used to be.
Writing has become both solace and therapy.
For me and for the clients I’ve guided through expressive writing.

A pen and page can hold what the heart can’t.

It slows the mind, reveals patterns, and sparks new ways of thinking and feeling.

It’s a little bit of magic.
