In the middle of 2021,i've diagnosed with the current personality disorder,known as avoidant personality disorder.Really hard to cope with,as the patterns of my own personality are the same for more than 15 years and probably very difficult to change or treat,even with psychotherapy.

"Avoidant personality disorder is characterized by feelings of extreme social inhibition, inadequacy, and sensitivity to negative criticism and rejection. Yet the symptoms involve more than simply being shy or socially awkward. Avoidant personality disorder causes significant problems that affect the ability to interact with others and maintain relationships in day-to-day life."

The basic and main issue causing me this disorder,is the symptom of extreme shyness,sensitive to negative criticism/gossip,fear of rejection from others around causing social anxiety and self insecurity,plus lack of self confidence and low self esteem.The result of all these symptoms also causing,self isolation,self sabotage,self blaming,fear of failure generally,communication issues with others,lack of friendships,lack of relationships.

Actually,my life ruined by this disorder,without knowning it! If anyone have this kind or similar disorder,let's say how coping or find treatment,what worked or not. Thanx.

This sounds like hard things to the Moon, a full 12th house maybe to something that can be seen in a chart, for sure. It is not your fault!! That I can stand on.

I wish I could think of a way to help you.💙
Here is a link that might help others understand your condition a wee bit better. http://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/9761-avoidant-personality-disorder

I can understand being different even
though I am not afflicted by the same
thing you suffer with.😞💙
I rarely talk about my various social
anti-social and autism plus other issues
such as being very reclusive.
I have lost many so called friends online
because sooner or later some have wanted to meet me in person or Skype.
I must simply refuse for physical and psychological reasons.
I simply cannot meet and tried Skype and no way want to try that again.👽
I refuse to use telephones.
So yes I can relate to your woes but do not know how to help you.😞
Please do not give up okay?
You are not alone.💙
Venting here at LL can help perhaps.
💙

Today,i did my first steps to socialize better,i had started some lessons about how you can use some techniques to socialize,to start talking women,how to do a proper flirt without be nervous or looking akward.

It was a small step,i hope next 6 months to improve my skills and be more comfortable to the road or in enviroment with people.

I totally understand💙
It took decades to conquer mine and they still rise up at times when the pain from my disabilities and cancers flare up.

Being dyslexic and autistic and not
comfortable in crowds,
Or even most folks in person,
I can relate to your sorrow💙😞

Do you also suffer with anxiety and or panic attacks❓
I cannot take most meds used to control them.
Mine are mostly brought on by intense pain and blindness episodes and are not psychological.
I cope some by checking my blood pressure and heart pulse rate and my blood sugar and temperature.
If they all seem fine then I can accept that I need not have anxiety or panic attacks.
However the black blindness and other vision problems are harder to cope with and I have to wait until my sight returns.
No fun but I do my best to work through it
all to keep my sanity intact.

I feel for you dear Sorrow💙
