Navigating Sensitivity: Understanding RSD and HSP

  • Summary

  • Welcome back to another insightful episode of "Mindset with Gina," where we delve into the mindsets and tools that empower you to live your best life. This time, we explore the intriguing topic of Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD) versus being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), two experiences that resonate deeply with many listeners.

    Discover the distinct characteristics of RSD, often linked to ADHD, characterized by intense emotional responses to perceived rejection, and HSP, a trait identified by Dr. Elaine Aron, marked by heightened sensitivity to sensory and emotional inputs. Learn about the personal journey of Gina, who, despite having ADHD, identifies more with being an HSP.

    We also provide practical strategies to manage these experiences. For RSD, techniques like reframing self-talk, practicing box breathing, and clear communication are key. Meanwhile, HSPs can benefit from creating a sensory-friendly environment, practicing grounding techniques, and scheduling downtime. Whether you resonate with RSD, HSP, or both, this episode offers valuable insights and tools to help you thrive.

    Join us on this journey of understanding and growth, and don't forget to share this episode with a friend or leave a review if you found it helpful. Keep growing, keep thriving, and be kind to yourself.
