ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Have you ever felt too much? Or like your feelings are so big compared to others? Board certified psychiatrist and an ADHD clinical specialist Dr. Sasha Hamdani joins Unshaming to discuss the science behind it. She recently published a book on the understudied area of ADHD called Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria or RSD. And she’s going to share everything she learned.
We cover:
- The evolutionary reason you feel so sensitive
- The evolutionary strengths of having an emotionally sensitive brain
- Why ADHD brains are most likely to have RSD
- What happens in the brain when a situationship doesn't text back
- The most impactful thing you can do when triggered by rejection
- ADHD hacks for better sleep, brain health, and productivity
Check out Dr. Hamdani’s new book wherever books are sold: “Too Sensitive: Rejection, Resilience, and the Science of Feeling Deeply"
