I’ve worked hard not to always be quiet and withdrawn..
I read in a book on “avoidant pd” something like they are “incapable” of having “close relationships” - nice.. not. I don’t “fit” the description in that book at all Although I didn’t finish the book as I didn’t find it particularly helpful
It’s sad how some perfectly “good” people and people who are trying to be “good” or “acceptable” to “society” whatever that may be..are so heavily stigmatised because of “diagnosis” - some of which aren’t even accurate.
Hugs if ok

You got it. We are all more than our diagnosis.
I also feel a little sad that you have to say hugs if okay. Internet hugs should always be okay. In my world anyways. Hugs back!
