Oh my. I can totally relate to what you people are saying. I tried to not let this AvPD take control of me when I first discovered about this but in just about 3 days came to the conclusion that it's impossible now. I'm it's slave. My every thought, feeling, action, decision is driven by AvPD. And the worst part I can't do anything even after knowing what this is. It feels like I'm not a person because they cannot be described like I can. I have been put in a category like fruits or shoes or insects.
