Do you sometimes just wish to “be normal”?

Hang out with people?

Not needing to isolate and distance yourself constantly?

Well, then you first have to understand why you behave like this.

So, maybe you are just a bit avoidant, or even have some form of avoidance personality disorder.

Or anywhere between, of course.

Today, we’re uncovering the differences between an avoidant attachment style and an avoidant personality disorder, plus what could be between them, and at which point avoidance and isolation become pathological.
