I have Avoidant Personality Disorder. I suffer from all seven of the criteria.
Woah. I was talking to Puar and Shu about this last night...that's exactly what I have. I thought it was just some kind of inferiority complex, now I have a name for it.
I just now read that...Holy shit. I thought it was just my personality, didn't know it was a disorder. I'll have to somehow manage to get to a doctor on this and get it checked out with an official diagnosis...that scares the hell outta me. Thanks, Suppa for bringing that up.
And thanks Vi, for actually making me read that. Wanted to see what you suffered from
It's the exact same thing I have. All 7 straight. So that's why I do that. I always thought it was natural. Whenever I talk to someone, they tell me about something, and I interrupt them and think I'm talking about the same thing and I'm not, and everyone looks at me, I feel....ashamed, rejected. I broke ten windows this way. I turned behind the corner and punched thorguh anything was in my way.....including ten windows and a person
I don't think I'm getting a doctor, my parents think I'm a hyppocondriac enough.

That's not a disease, or a disorder. Like Will said, it's just a name they slapped on a personality.
You guys arn't sick. I can understand that it's a difficult personality trait to get over but it doesn't mean there is something wrong with you.

I have Hepititus C. You don't get much worse then that.
Chronic Liver Disease is worse. Just for the simple fact that it is hereditary. I have it. All the males in my family do.

Note, just because you have a "disorder" doesn't mean there's anything anyone can do about it. People slap disorders on anything just to make people feel better when a certain amount of people show similar symptoms.
If your personality seems normal to you then it is.
If people haven't told you you need help, you don't.
Most people love finding faults with themselves though.
Hypochondria is the most severe mental disorder of al.
You could be right, Hypochondria is pretty bad, and perhaps I am just over reacting, but I have two different sides to me, one, in real life and off the computer, I tend to enjoy avoiding people, or finding some way to avoid any sort of contact with people due to the fact that I don't feel like I would be worthwhile, or in other words, my existance is solely here for my own enjoyment, and other people do not see me as valuable. I try to avoid most sexual contact with anyone, and when a guy seems interested in me, I shrug it off like he is just messing around to get a laugh or something off the fat girl. Basicically, I do anything within my power to avoid people.
Online, however, I have the anonimynity that typed word gives me, and it somehow makes me feel like I can contact others without the feeling of being judged soley by my appearance. I do however, feel like I am being judged because of how I act, although alot of the way I act online is basically a show to fit in, so to speak. Sometimes I do not act so brazen to newer aquiantances.
I'll stop now.
Fuck you, Photobucket.

Yep, it's something I've built up through my life. It's really all in my head. Still, it sucks.

Probably half of the people here can relate to that.  This coming from someone who hasn't had a single offline friend since leaving my old College (alright, so that's an exaggeration - I did meet my old best friend a couple of times last year).

1. It's not worse.
2. We're not debating who's got the worse illness in this thread.

C is bad, sure. But you can still do a lot of things with Hepititus C

That's kinda how I feel, Violet.
I find friends bothersom. I couldn't be assed to make friends. Yet, I feel very lonely and sad when I realize I have no one. Partly the reason I dropped out of school was because of that loneliness. I don't want friends, and yet, I do. It's hard.

Hepatitis C is one of the worst diseases out there. Getting a liver transplant won't cure it. It's chronic.
Not as bad as people are led to believe. My father has had it for 20 years and he is still ok.

That's why my parents managed to get me a best friend...seriously I met him...5 years ago? And we are still friends. He's got the same problems and still, we are like brothers toghether, so I'm not all that lonely. Though when my parents though of sending me to Bucharest, I though I would die.

I was just going to say that. You bastard, you beat me.
I probably had a disorder. I had depression. I worked through 'em myself once I came to terms with it. =o

Instead of wallowing in self-pity I've been bettering myself. I won't let myself become worse than I was. The people who give up, are the ones who need help.
Even a certain person I know here, who had major depression issues, has begun looking on the brighter side  . I won't name names.

My own revelation in beating depression came during a Psychology class when I was studying it. My own definition of the difference between a normal person and a depressed person is thus;
When you're not depressed, you try, even if there's a small chance of failure. When you're depressed, if, say you might fail at something, then you don't try because you probably won't win, even though there's a chance of you winning and losing won't bring any significant consequences.
Following me?
I would do things like this. If I was running late for a class, I just wouldn't go. Or if I was probably going to miss the bus, I'd just stay at home. The cure is to always try, even if there's a good chance you'll lose. You'll find that, even if you fail more often, you'll still have more successes because you actually try things. You can't win unless you try.

I think you're confusing "depressed" and "lazy."

I suffer from a chemical imbalance and have been on Zoloft since I turned 16, but really I can't say I suffer from it as my mom has it worse off than I do. *shrugs* It's just like anything else, you get used to living with it because you're stuck with it one way or another. The medication just makes it easier to live with.

I consider something who has destructive thoughts and furthers themselves from happiness. =\

Well, lethargy is a by-product of depression. It was in my case, at least >_>

So, are all squares rectangles, or are not all rectangles squares?
