Hi,

I'm looking for some info, advice, thoughts anything really...

In march this year I was admitted to G ward (psych unit at hospital) in the intake session with the Pdoc he told me the usual ,depression, anxiety, eating disorder and threw a new one into the mix sensory processing disorder.

I stayed did my time and what was asked of me and was discharged. Since then I have been hospitalised on two more occasions.

So today I had a GP app as I had self harmed quite badly over the weekend, I asked my doc what official diagnosis the Pdoc had given me and he looked through all paperwork on intake the Pdoc had said "traits of AvPD" and then in the discharge summery he had written diagnosis: AvPD, other 4....

The question is do I have traits of AvPD or AvPD and if it's just traits is that still a diagnosis of AvPD??

Sorry if this is not very clear I'm a bit rattled and stunned and don't know what to do with this info, thanks for reading and hopefully some advise and answers
