RSD in AuDHD

A Practical Guide to Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria for Autistic and ADHD Adults

Living with both autism and ADHD creates a unique neurological profile that intensifies every emotional experience, especially rejection and criticism. This comprehensive guide addresses the hidden struggle of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) in individuals with AUDHD - the co-occurrence of autism and ADHD.

Discover why traditional mental health approaches often fail for AUDHD brains and learn evidence-based strategies specifically designed for your neurological differences. This book provides practical tools for managing the physical pain of rejection, understanding your triggers, and building relationships that work with your authentic self.

Key topics include:

Understanding the neuroscience behind AUDHD and RSD

Identifying personal trigger patterns and early warning signs

Modified therapeutic approaches that actually work for neurodivergent brains

Medication options and considerations for complex neurological profiles

Workplace accommodations and self-advocacy strategies

Creating sensory-friendly environments that support emotional regulation

Building sustainable support systems and meaningful relationships

Transforming shame into self-compassion and authentic living

From crisis management protocols to daily life design, this guide offers practical solutions for the unique challenges of living with AUDHD and RSD. Learn to work with your neurological differences rather than against them, developing the tools needed to thrive as your authentic self.

Perfect for AUDHD individuals, their families, partners, and mental health professionals seeking to understand and support this complex neurological profile. Includes quick reference guides, worksheets, and resources for ongoing support.
