It's Hurtful that we have to live with a disorder that doesn't have allot of any helpful professional advice, it's insulting and triggering when those who don't have the disorder happily give expert views and opinions.
Good point. They tend to describe their personal symptoms and call them "avoidant" when in truth what they're talking about is completely the opposite of how people with AvPD act and react. It's really common for people to attribute symptoms of depression to avoidance, for instance. They are two separate things.
