I don't know how to share the chart, I had "aversive," "alienated," and "fragile" maxed out, top segment for "anguished," second to top for all the rest, overall 86.88%. Not surprising, I would probably qualify for a diagnosis of avoidant personality disorder.

I got high (70%)

I dunno if I have AVPD or not. It is something I have discussed with my therapist, before discovering autistic traits. I could have both AVPD and autism.

It didn't surprise me that I scored high overall but low in fragility. :lol:

Your avoidant personality traits are moderate (58.13%) :arrow:
This seems about right to me. I tend to keep to myself a lot because I don't see a reason to interact with others. I find interacting & going out draining but usually not very upsetting or bothersome. Plus the hobbies that interest me have always been more solitary things I can do at home. My score woulda been a lot higher when I was single & depressed about being lonely.

but if you are just taking them for funsies and don't have issues relating to AVPD then a higher score in those areas can be for like, any number of other things, like ADHD or maladaptive daydreaming or something.

I'm sure this is the case with me.

"Your avoidant personality traits are high (71.88%)."

What's this? Never heard of this condition before, but many, many of the questions were spot on for me. I thought these were just anxiety (I have been diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder) along with my neurodivergence making socializing tricky and leading me to a long history of rejection.

I think social anxiety is more about experiencing the emotional effect that could be a cause, whereas avoident personality is more about the behavioral pattern that could be an effect.

Yea the distracted, alienated, and fretful results of mine are probably affected mostly by my ADHD inattentive type, aspergers, and anxiety lol. I do not relate to avoidant personality issues thankfully. I am grateful for that since I know these issues are really distressing. I have some good people in my family and am grateful for my few but quality friends. I do not think too much of rejection and do not get easily embarrassed because it does not matter to me much unless it affects my family and friends.

Also I am bad at imagining like.. actual daydreams. I just think? Nothing that could be a storyline and nothing with characters and whatever. That would involve me having to understand intentions and personalities of people more or something maybe. I wish I could just have my own stories and movies in my head like some of my friends seem to have. Sounds fun.
