Whats the different than quiet BPD and Avoidant personality disorder?

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">

well, I'm no where near to being an expert but I'd think one difference might be that borderlines are proned to self-harm, which I don't believe is a trait for people with Avoidant Personality Disorder..... however-- I've read that-- one could share traits from both disorders and even more confusing..... some people have so many various traits that they must be diagnosed Personality Disorder NOS(not otherwise specified)

It can be quite confusing.......
