Rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD) represents a significant yet frequently overlooked challenge experienced by many children, especially those with neurodivergent conditions like ADHD. As it often flies under the radar, it may lead parents, educators, and even mental health professionals to overlook its presence, resulting in undiagnosed or untreated emotional distress in affected children.
It is therefore crucial for parents to adapt their parenting approach and provide coping mechanisms suited to the unique needs of these children, rather than relying solely on discipline to alleviate their reactivity. That’s why this episode is important for you!
