Does anyone else experience this? My biggest complaints are GAD, depression and PTSD. A symptom or coping behavior of all three of those is avoidance. I was trying to figure out why I spent the last 3 months in bed, and I realized that in everything that I did or didn't do, I was being avoidant. I suspect that I may have Avoidant Personality Disorder, but it really doesn't matter. I need to overcome these issues of anxiety and fear and not avoid things. I thought that perhaps the reason I procrastinated some things was because of OCD or perfectionism, but that just didn't sit right with what I was feeling. I wasn't not doing things because they weren't perfect...I am a perfectionist but not in a way that keeps me from doing things. In fact, I'm not even sure if I truly am a perfectionist. I have learned in my life to say "this is going to have to be good enough."

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone else experienced severe avoidance behavior and how you tried to overcome it? Like what strategies you used to counteract it?
