Welcome to a special YouTube event hosted by RenaFi!

This is Part 2 of a series on the topic of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and the dual perspective of adults with ADHD, and the clinician who does not have ADHD.

In this enlightening session, we have Dr. Bill Dodson, a renowned authority on Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) for over 25 years, collaborating with Beth Bardeen, a neurodiversity advocate and former tech industry executive who herself has adult ADHD.

🔵 In this video, Beth and Bill will provide unique insights into the world of adult ADHD from both a patient's perspective and a psychiatrist's viewpoint. They'll shed light on the disparities between a clinician's observation of behaviors and symptoms versus the internal struggles and lived experiences of RSD in adult ADHD patients.

🔴 RSD is a profoundly intense emotional response that affects up to 90% of individuals with ADHD. Surprisingly, it remains an officially unrecognized condition in the DSM-5, despite Dr. Dodson's and other ADHD leaders' substantial efforts to include it in the 2013 update.

💡 Discover why the absence of RSD in the DSM-5 not only increases the risk of misdiagnosis but also places the onus on sufferers to self-educate and advocate for treatment options that are both cost-effective and transformative.

🌟 ADHD and RSD exhibit unique variations in different individuals, and because these conditions have both physiological and emotional components, understanding how they feel from the inside is crucial. Gain valuable insights into the hidden world of ADHD and RSD that often goes unnoticed.

🎉 Don't miss this one-time premier event hosted by RenaFi's very own Melissa Reskoff, the driving force behind RenaFi's Conversations With Melissa. Coaches, mental health professionals, as well as ADHD patients and their family members, are encouraged to join this important conversation.
