Rejection sensitive dysphoria, a type of pain so difficult to describe.

ALT Mindmap which says rejection sensitive dysphoria in the centre with arrows leading to 8 small circles which read: an extreme emotional response to criticism or rejection, coined by Dr Dodson as a condition exclusive to ADHD, triggered by real or perceived rejection, may look like intense anxiety, emotional or physical pain, depression, can feel uncontrollable, unbearable and like it will never end, can lead to excessive people pleasing, social avoidance, self harm, may be as a result of more rejection throughout their life, believed by many to be the most impairing aspect of ADHD.

We need good teachers in every classroom.
We need talented principals at every school.
We need effective staff—from school counselors to nurses—to support our kids.
We need responsible bus drivers to transport students.
And to do that, we need to properly fund public schools.

Attention AIG 4th & 5th grade @TurnerCreekES families! I will be hosting two meetings during the next few weeks. The goal is to provide us with an opportunity to review what AIG looks like at Turner Creek and to review questions you may have about your gifted student. #tceAIG 🐸

Module 4 asks that students complete a PSA for an issue in our community. Students brainstormed ideas and chose a topic where they wanted to make a change. We are working in groups to create an action plan for our chosen issue. I love seeing their passion 💛 @TurnerCreekES
