Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is a symptom of emotional dysregulation associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It is characterized by intense emotional pain and sensitivity triggered by the perception of rejection, criticism, or failure. RSD is not a formal diagnosis but a common and disruptive manifestation of emotional dysregulation. Symptoms include sudden emotional outbursts, withdrawal from social situations, negative self-talk, and thoughts of self-harm. RSD is believed to be the result of ADHD emotional dysregulation, making it difficult to regulate feelings and control emotional responses. TalktoAngel offers psychotherapy services to help individuals with RSD learn coping strategies and develop skills to manage their emotions. It also provides online psychiatric consultation services to address mental health issues, including RSD. A supportive community is available for individuals with RSD to connect with others experiencing similar challenges.
