At the very beginning, when I was listening to people, I recognized that what they were describing was something from way back in my own training.
that was called rejection sensitivity dysphoria.
And at the time, it was a part of the very first research on treatment-resistant depression.
In fact, it was the hallmark symptom of treatment-resistant depression.
And the treatment of choice then and now were the monamine oxidase inhibitor antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, which, by the way, worked beautifully for ADHD as well.
And so, as I said, that's what Paul Winder was describing.
And because the current state of affairs in ADHD have been allowed to languish for so long, and they lack so much, back 15, 20 years ago, I went back and started over again from the beginning, and that's the work of Paul Winder and Frederick Reimer, who originally described
the syndrome.
And they described it very much the same way I approach RSD.
They were psychiatrists in Salt Lake City, Utah, who sat with thousands of hyperactive children and wrote down the patterns that they saw.
And that's how we got our first diagnostic criteria.
