Are you working with a psychotherapist to get to the bottom of the fears that are behind this? When you understand and appreciate what you are avoiding then you can work on those issues so that you won't need to use avoidance.

From a fellow avoider: Hang in there! The place to begin feeling better is to learn to love and accept yourself. No matter what others say, no matter what has happened before. If you can't count on others to be good to you, you can be good to yourself!

AvPD is tough. Partly because the mental health industry has no clue how to effectively treat it.
For me, I started to break out of it by developing something that I was good at. Fortunately, it led me into a career that I've had good success with. I had some good mentoring, worked hard, and have a lot of determination. So my advice is to find something you would like to do, that you consider worthwhile, and put as much energy and effort into improving. Take it and run with it. It doesn't matter what it is at first as long as you get joy/satisfaction from it. You'll feel much better once you've accomplished something you consider worthy. |

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