Understanding Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD)
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is an emotional condition that is often linked with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), though it can occur in individuals without ADHD as well who may have experienced past trauma or negitive expereinces. RSD is characterised by an intense emotional response to perceived or actual rejection, criticism, or failure. Individuals with RSD experience these feelings more deeply than typical emotional responses, and the pain can be so severe that they might go to great lengths to avoid situations where rejection is possible. It can also lead to significant anxiety and depression if untreated and can seriously effect people lives where they may become suicidal if not addressed or resolved.
Those with RSD might interpret a neutral situation as negative or perceive an offhand remark as a deep personal criticism, leading to rapid and intense emotional reactions such as sadness, anger, or even withdrawal. This sensitivity can significantly impact a person’s self-esteem and can complicate personal relationships and social interactions.

Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria
Got a Question?
What is Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria?
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is a condition that is characterised by extreme emotional sensitivity and pain triggered by the perception that one has been rejected or criticised by significant others. This condition is most commonly associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), but not everyone with ADHD experiences RSD, and it can occur in others without ADHD who have experience past trauma, neglect, or abandonment from their parents or past care givers.
Causes:
The exact cause of RSD is not fully understood, but it’s thought to be linked to both neurological and psychological factors:
- Neurological: People with ADHD often have dysregulated neurotransmitter systems, particularly involving dopamine, which could heighten emotional responses.
- Psychological: Those with RSD might have heightened vulnerabilities due to past experiences of rejection or failure, leading to an increased perception of these experiences as catastrophic.
Impact on Lives:
RSD can significantly affect one’s quality of life and emotional well-being:
- Relationships: Individuals with RSD may avoid intimate relationships or close friendships due to fear of rejection. They might also react disproportionately to criticism or perceived slights within relationships, which can create conflict and misunderstanding.
- Social Interaction: There may be an avoidance of social situations where there is a risk of judgment or rejection, potentially leading to isolation.
- Professional Life: In a work setting, a person with RSD might avoid opportunities for advancement that involve increased scrutiny or evaluation, or they might react strongly to feedback, complicating professional growth and interactions.
- Mental Health: The intense emotions associated with RSD can contribute to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.
By addressing RSD, individuals can improve their interpersonal relationships, enhance their social interactions, and better manage professional challenges, thereby improving overall life satisfaction and happiness.
Who can benefit from hypnotherapy for RSD?
Hypnotherapy can benefit a wide range of individuals who experience intense emotional reactions to rejection, criticism, or failure. These reactions often feel uncontrollable and can affect various areas of life. Specific groups who may benefit include:
- Individuals with ADHD: RSD is commonly associated with ADHD. People with ADHD often struggle with heightened emotional sensitivity, and hypnotherapy can help manage these responses by addressing subconscious triggers and building emotional resilience.
- Professionals and Students: If your career or studies involve regular feedback, hypnotherapy can help you process constructive criticism without taking it personally or feeling overwhelmed. This can improve focus, productivity, and professional relationships.
- People in Personal Relationships: Sensitivity to perceived rejection can strain relationships with partners, friends, or family. Hypnotherapy helps you develop healthier thought patterns and communication skills, enabling stronger, more balanced relationships.
- Anyone Feeling Overwhelmed by Emotional Sensitivity: If rejection or criticism triggers disproportionate emotional pain or avoidance behaviours, hypnotherapy offers a supportive path to gaining control over these feelings.
Ultimately, hypnotherapy is highly adaptable, making it suitable for anyone seeking to reduce their sensitivity to rejection and improve their overall emotional well-being.
