I know most people here presumably have Asperger's Syndrome, but for the purpose of this poll let's assume that you didn't have Asperger's Syndrome but instead had a Personality Disorder, or that you still have Asperger's Syndrome and a Personality Disorder.

I'm not really a fan of the personality disorders, but I voted 'schizoid' because I was diagnosed with it a couple times.

Through most of my childhood, I definitely would have qualified for avoidant personality disorder (called anxious personality disorder in the ICD-10). For most of my childhood, I could have also been diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (called anankastic personality disorder in the ICD-10). Through roughly adolescence on, I've probably developed some traits of the schizoid personality. Basically at some time or other, I've probably shown a few features of each of the personality disorders (which I think is pretty much normal). I've tried to make myself less rigid and apprehensive over the years.

I wasn't really sure, but I chose Avoidant because I often see it in conjunction with social anxiety disorder which I suspect I have.

I have all three of the cluster-A disorders:

Paranoid
Schizotypical
Schizoid

I also have OCD, depression, and I suspect I'm bipolar.

I have been diagnosed with Avoidant and Schizotypal personality disorders. I probably have more than that. Just because I am nuts!

These together would explain most of it:

Schizoid
Obsessive-compulsive [PD]
Schizotypal
Avoidant

Schizoid
Depressive
Passive-Aggressive

Those three. Although being passive-aggressive isn't a personality "disorder", just a personality TRAIT.
Depression isn't a personality disorder, it's a mood disorder. I've been dx'd with depression.
I fit the criteria for schizoid personality as I suspect quite a few with AS do as well.

From what I've read about it I voted 'schizoid' as being the one which would best fit me.

I'm too young to have been diagnosed with one of the 'big' personality disorders, but I'm already diagnosed with OCD and possible bipolar disorder.

If I were to have a personality disorder in place of autism, however, it'd probably be Schizotypal disorder- it matches my AS traits far more than the other disorders.

Mood disorder, depression but this is post-natal. I was not really depressive before 30 years old.
