I'm very confuse, worried and I even feel guilty.
Was diagnosed as an avoidant, now waiting for a new evaluation. As it will take time, some thoughts go round and round my mind. Doing CBT since I was 25, without the diagnosis. It came much later. Since I began with therapy I went progressing moré and moré each day. I even went able to trust someone to have a relationship. I have read all the last threads and posts. My impressions from them is that there isn't a way to improve. Or did I understand bad and there is a possibility for improvement if you work on your issues? I feel guilty bc I would hate the possibility to be sprending possitiviness based on my experience and perhaps I was totally wrong. I'll take my responsability if I have to but really, I'm very confuse.

A lot of the reading I've done over the years has said that personality disorders tend to get less intense as someone grows older.
And of course it's possible to change. Everyone is changing all the time whether they want to or not! If by change you mean "completely 'cure'" then no, that is just not possible. But any individual can work to at least change some of their behaviours. Depending on who they are, and what they're aiming to change, it could take ages or not. It might not necessarily change how someone thinks or feels, but you CAN change behaviours and hopefully that will help with changing thoughts and emotions to a degree!
