Hi hello! your flags are absolutely breathtaking :-] Can we please request a version of the “dawn autism” and “dusk adhd” flags with AVPD (Avoidant Personality Disorder)? Thank you!
♡ Blue Hour AVPD
[pt. blue hour avpd. end pt.]
a term for one who either suspects, has traits of, or otherwise cannot be 100% sure has avpd, but still find it important enough to mention as one relates to avpd experiences and needs to note how one interacts with others.

examples may include people who aren't able to properly self diagnose for whatever reason, are in the process of getting diagnosed, are a system member with traits the rest of the system lacks, or are unsure whether their symptoms are pervasive enough to be a disorder.
(Suspected) SzPD + AvPD culture is i kinda feel like i'm the worst human being in the world for not socializing and not wanting to form relationships but people aren't that interesting and not worth the effort.
My therapist has expressed his speculation of me having avpd. He’s said my behavior and inner thoughts sound a lot like avpd and common in pwavpd.
I used to force myself to socialize and be very very extroverted in order to get myself out of my quiet shell. It helps, a lot with my generalized and social anxiety. But I feel so distant from people.
I would like to have more close relationships and open up, but I just can’t . I’m deeply afraid of ridicule and being embarrassed. I’m constantly embarrassed. I’m naturally loud and sort of obnoxious but I don’t know if I can help it, and everytime I socialize it ends up in me feeling ridiculed and like a clown.
I push people away not because I don’t love or want to be close with them, I don’t think I’m shy, I’m just afraid .

hi, im ezra, this is avpd confessions :) send in any confessions you have that have to do with avoidant personality disorder. basically anything is accepted as long as it is generally sfw and does not include targeted harassment or threats towards any member of our community. i reserve the right to block any user if a submission breaks one of these rules.
this blog is NOT transid friendly. do not submit a confession while claiming to be “transavpd”, youre taking away resources of those who actually deal with this disorder.
maybe I’m just destined to feel like everyone is out to get me because they can automatically see how much more disgusting I am compared to everyone else
can't wait to go home and talk to my psychiatrist about AvPD just to get dismissed because i'm not an adult yet and be told i just have severe anxiety even though this is chronic, debilitating, and only developed recently xx
i'm relying on my mom to bring it up because guess what, the avoidant disorder makes me avoid things ESPECIALLY social situations. crazy, right?
