Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD)
The Truth About Rejection, Shame & Self-CompassionBy Leah RendallRecorded TrackLength51m
About this audiobook
Rejection can feel like an emergency when you live with rejection sensitivity. A delayed reply, a change in tone or a small misunderstanding can quickly become emotional flooding, shame and the fear that you have ruined everything.
Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) is a compassionate, practical guide to understanding these intense responses without judging yourself for having them. Leah Rendall explores rejection sensitivity, overwhelm, shame spirals and the nervous system, while offering realistic tools for finding calm in the moment.
You will learn how to separate facts from fearful assumptions, recognise what your body is communicating, respond with greater self-compassion and explain RSD to the people you love.
You are not rude, dramatic or too sensitive. Your pain is real—and you deserve support before the spiral takes over.
