Rejection sensitivity can make a single offhand comment feel like a wound. For adults with ADHD, this intense emotional reaction is not a character flaw—it is a recognised part of how the ADHD brain processes perceived criticism and exclusion. This book offers a clear, compassionate guide to understanding rejection sensitivity, especially for those who have only recently discovered their ADHD. You will learn to recognise the signs, untangle the emotional flashbacks, and develop practical tools to respond with intention rather than react with pain. Through relatable examples and gentle exercises, you will build self-compassion, improve your relationships, and reclaim your confidence. You will also find guidance on when to seek professional help and how to explain your experiences to the people around you. Whether you are navigating a late diagnosis or simply seeking answers, this book helps you turn a misunderstood trait into a source of strength. Part of The Late Diagnosis Library.
