RSD in AuDHD

TG•podcasters.spotify.com

Each episode draws from A Practical Guide to Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria for Autistic and ADHD Adults to help you understand what's actually happening in your nervous system when rejection strikes — and what to do about it. You'll learn to spot your personal trigger patterns before they spiral, find therapeutic approaches that were designed for how your brain actually works, navigate workplace dynamics without masking yourself into exhaustion, and build a daily life that supports your emotional regulation rather than constantly working against it. Because you don't need to be fixed.
