A quick self-reflection

How much does rejection sensitivity show up for you?

This short reflection can help you notice how often rejection sensitivity may be showing up in your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behavior.

This isn’t a diagnostic assessment. RSD is not a formal diagnosis, and this quiz can’t tell you whether you “have” it. Think of your result as a way to notice patterns worth paying attention to.

Something to notice

A few things you can practice

◇ Pause before interpreting

Ask yourself what you actually know before deciding what someone’s behavior means.

Name what’s happening: “My rejection alarm is activated. I don’t have all the information yet.”

↝ Delay the reaction

Give yourself a little time before apologizing, explaining, withdrawing, or trying to fix things.
