I end up probably being judged any way of being so isolated and anxious.
Yes, this is the same way with me you're right.

In the back of my head, I always say why would a girl be interested in me, given that there are all those good looking and interesting guys, who make them laugh?
I feel the same way about romantic relationships... I've given up on that anyway.

Again, why knowing the name of the symptoms is important?
Hmm.... for me it was important because... sometimes when I feel very lonely I will type "AvPD forums" into Google and just read the threads...(mostly on Psychforums, as they are very active) and it's consoling in a way that there are so much other people feeling like me.... and finding and connecting to these people is just possible for me because I know there is a "name" for it... Also, I read some scientific stuff about my condition, and it enabled me to have an insight on myself and comprehend myself in a way that I would have never reached just through ruminating about myself on my own...
But I see. If you're not interested in finding a label, then that's your decision. And not everyone is so much interested in psychology stuff. If I had a physical disease, I don't think I could choke myself into reading any scientific work about it, simply because I'm not especially interested in medicine, even if I knew it would be beneficial to get informed. So. Yuh.
