Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Some relationships carry a passenger nobody invited. A sigh gets read as fury. A delayed reply becomes proof of abandonment. A gentle piece of feedback lands like a verdict on someone's entire worth. For couples navigating life with AuDHD, this invisible presence has a name - Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria - and it can quietly reshape everything from morning greetings to late-night arguments, long before either partner understands what's actually happening.Dr. Diana Moyer, a clinical psychologist and AuDHD advocate, offers a compassionate, clear-eyed guide to a dynamic rarely named and even more rarely understood. Drawing on clinical insight and lived experience, this book traces RSD from its neurological roots through its tangled relationship with autistic masking, then into the daily texture of real partnerships - the misfired jokes, the spirals over nothing, the exhaustion of walking on eggshells.What follows isn't a promise to eliminate RSD. It's something sturdier: practical communication tools for two different nervous systems, strategies for de-escalating spirals without abandoning honesty, and a roadmap for building the kind of structural safety that lets a relationship hold difficulty without breaking. For anyone loving - or being loved by - someone with RSD, this book offers what's been missing: language, understanding, and a way forward.
