I have recently been diagnosed with avoidant personality disorder, but they never really gave me any advice on how to deal with it. I did some research on it and they said that medication might help. Does anyone have any idea if this is true? If so what meds?

Who diagnosed you? Therapy is a good idea.
I don't know about medication, it might treat symptoms like anxiety and depression, but it can't "fix" AvPD. |

Didn't they refer you to a therapist? Have you also been diagnosed with anxiety or depression?

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
