I think I may have been misdiagnosed as ptsd. I have just recently been reading about AVPD and it seems to fit my symptoms better. I have been told I can't have this because I did marry in my life (though now a widow), and I did make it through nursing school, though I had a horrible time in my working life with dealing with people. I isolate all the time, I do want to connect with people, but, I cannot in real life, just online. I am older now, 58, and so I feel I should just accept it as I am and not try anymore to 'cure' it. Does anyone feel this way?

Current meds:
Buspar
Citalopram
Quetiapine (for sleep)
I currently isolate everyday. I am ok with that, but some times feel lonely. However, I do not want to have a relationship in the real world in person as people make me nervous. I have trust issues.
