Book Description

Do you suffer from intense feelings of rejection? Do you experience deep emotional and physical intensity that is manifested without warning? Maybe you know someone who seems to be overly sensitive to perceived or real rejection and then presents irrational behaviour?RSD stands for Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria. It can seriously impact the quality of life of an individual. If you experience intense emotional and/or physical pain when you perceive rejection, then you may have RSD. Whilst it is commonly attributed to those who have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder), and is not an officially recognised mental health disorder, the author felt it necessary to educate and help sufferers.This book will introduce you to RSD and help you understand what it is. You will discover who it affects and how it feels to suffer from it. The Beginners Guide to Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, the first book in the series Understanding and Identifying Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, will also teach you what causes RSD, how rejection is really triggered, behaviours that it presents, treatments and next steps.This book has been written by someone who has experienced the challenges, intensity, inner turmoil and destructive impacts to relationships and well being as a result of having Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria. Written from the experience of an RSD sufferer with a keen analytical, logical approach to solving problems, a passion for language and communication; this book is easy to read and can be used to educate yourself or as a tool to support someone else who has RSD. It is possible whilst having RSD to nurture a sense of being OK in the present moment. As stated, RSD is highly comorbid in other mental health conditions such as ADHD. This book intentionally focuses on RSD as there is very limited written material for RSD in isolation and yet would be valuable to so many sufferers.Those who suffer with RSD live an internalised experience of deep rejection. This internal experience is manifested at quantum speeds, with deep emotional pain and intensity experienced almost instantly with little understanding of how the mind got there so quickly. The only control we have is internal. The reader is asked to believe in the possible and suspend any beliefs that RSD is a chemical brain imbalance that cannot be improved or thrived from.The author shares with you, that this book is written as much for himself as it is for You. Quantifying, verbalising, analysing and disseminating his experiences enabled the discovery of an approach to circumvent RSD which is taught in later series he writes on this topic. The accepted norm of chemical brain dysfunction is that we can do nothing about it. The author, whilst recognising that this may be true, challenges the collective acceptance by presenting a model based approach to improving the lives of RSD sufferers.

Book Description

The inspiring, relatable, and sometimes outrageous true story of how one man used 100 days of rejection therapy to overcome fear and dare to live more boldly “Rejection Proof smashes fear in the face with a one-two punch. You’ll laugh out loud at Jia’s crazy social experiments, but you’ll also go away thinking differently about what you can accomplish.”—Chris Guillebeau, New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Pursuit Jia Jiang’s TEDx Talk, “What I learned from 100 days of rejection,” has amassed over ten million views! Jia Jiang came to the United States with the dream of being the next Bill Gates. But despite early success in the corporate world, his first attempt to pursue his entrepreneurial dream ended in rejection. Jia was crushed and spiraled into a period of deep self-doubt. Jia realized that his fear of rejection was a bigger obstacle than any single rejection would ever be; he needed to find a way to cope with being told “no” that wouldn’t destroy him. Inspired by rejection therapy, which uses similar modalities as exposure therapy to desensitize you to the effects of being rejected, he undertook the “100 days of rejection” experiment, during which he willfully sought out rejection on a daily basis—from requesting a lesson in sales from a car salesman (no) to asking a flight attendant if he could make an announcement on the loud speaker (yes) to his famous request to get Krispy Kreme donuts in the shape of Olympic rings (yes, with a viral video to prove it). Over the course of one hundred rejection attempts, Jia realized that even the most preposterous wish might be granted if you ask the right way. He learned the secrets to making successful requests, tactics for picking the right people to approach at the right time, and strategies for converting an initial no into something positive. More important, Jia discovered ways to steel himself against rejection and live more fearlessly—skills that can’t be derailed by a single setback. The changes Jia experienced from his rejection therapy experiment went far beyond becoming more successful in business; he realized that he could apply these techniques to get more out of his relationships with friends, family, and even casual encounters with strangers. Filled with great stories and valuable insight, Rejection Proof shares the secrets of Jia’s rejection journey, distilling each lesson into a strategy that can be used in any negotiation or pitch.

Book Description

A step-by-step model for individualized case conceptualization This innovative new guide addresses the essential question facing every therapist with a new client: How do I create a treatment plan that is the best match for my client? This unique resource provides a systematic method to integrate ideas, skills, and techniques from different theoretical approaches, empirical research, and clinical experience to create a case formulation that is tailor-made for the client. Clinical Case Formulations is divided into three parts: * Getting Started--provides an overview that sets forth a framework for case formulation and data gathering. * 28 Core Clinical Hypotheses--offers a meta-framework embracing all theories, orientations, and mental health intervention models and presents clinical hypotheses within seven categories: Biological Hypotheses; Crisis, Stressful Situations, and Transitions; Behavioral and Learning Models; Cognitive Models; Existential and Spiritual Models; Psychodynamic Models; and Social, Cultural, and Environmental Factors. These hypotheses are combined and integrated to develop a coherent conceptualization of the client's problems. * Steps to a Complete Case Formulation--provides a structured framework known as the Problem-Oriented Method (POM). Using the POM and integrating multiple hypotheses, the therapist learns how to think intelligently, critically, and creatively in order to develop a tailor-made treatment plan. A list of thirty-three standards for evaluating the application of this method is provided. With this practical guide you will learn to conceptualize your clients' needs in ways that lead to effective treatment plans while finding the tools for troubleshooting when interventions fail to produce expected benefits.
