It’s like the menu in a Chinese restaurant. One from column A and one from column B. They clumped certain PDs together that share some traits and refer to them as a cluster. People with one PD must tend to have traits of those other PDs in the cluster or even fully PDs in the cluster. Research must have shown a high statistic of people having these traits in order to have decided there are clusters.

I have spent a lot of time reading about all the diagnoses and find they mirror each other very much to a very confusing degree making it hard to pin down any diagnosis. They blend together! This is not too settling for one as neurotic as me!

After all my reading and soul searching I don’t know and I don’t care. One little anxiety pill stopped the crying fits! I’m moving through life just fine.
