The Life-Changing Power of Embracing Rejection
Rejection therapy, a trend gaining popularity on social media, involves intentionally seeking rejection to desensitize oneself to it and boost confidence. While not officially recognized as therapy, some individuals, like TikTok user Sophie Jones, report significant personal growth and reduced fear of judgment. However, psychologists caution that it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with severe social anxiety, and emphasize the importance of understanding the root causes of rejection fears. Experts suggest that while rejection therapy can be a useful self-help tool, it lacks the tailored approach of established therapies like CBT.
