#actually cluster c

[astrangerthatlovesyou]

Having AvPD is like: I’m so open, everyone knows everything about me. That’s terrifying, everyone must hate how much I share. God I feel so exposed I feel sick. And the last time you opened up to someone was October of 2021 when you told your mom you were a little stressed.

Rules:

1. This is a blog purely surrounded around Cluster C and Cluster C only, other clusters can be mentioned but that is not this blogs purpose.

2. No LGBTphobia, racism, ableism, demonization of any disorder or illness, stating that one cluster is "better" than the other.

About me:

My name is Forrest {She/They, Shx/Thxy}. I have OCPD & NPD with BPD and HPD traits. Ι was sick of not seeing much action in the Cluster C community so here I am I guess 🤷🏽‍♀️

Flag in theme made by me in a desperate attempt to get a somewhat actually good Cluster C flag. Star dividers made by me.

Schizotypal friend made stamps, blinkies and straight dividers. 🩷

Inpatient treatment helped me, it didn't heal me. I am still anankastic, i still have ocd and i will probably experience another depressive episode in the future but i am insanely more human. Interpesonal interaction is more than just lists and plans, it's desire, warmth, spontaneity, love, everything. I cannot rebulid myself, i've tried, but i know i can bulid myself around this.

hey, PD tumblr, anyone got some good online tests to kinda check if you might have a personality disorder? we are again again questioning if we might have one/some or traits from them at least. we used to have an EUPD diagnosis, but it got changed to bipolar, but then they said it wasn't bipolar anyway so yeah lol while we are waiting for our new psychiatrist (hopefully seeing her in less than a year now), we wanted to check if we might have traits of some PDs so we could maybe help ourselves a little in the meantime

we also got DID and AuDHD, so honestly it's been hard for us to understand ourselves since we don't really remember all our symptoms and it varies so much between alters. so if anyone have any tips on that, those are welcome too. thank you <3

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY MINORS ON PERSONALITY DISORDER SPACES??? YOU'RE A MINOR YOU DON'T HAVE A PERSONALITY DISORDER YOU'RE JUST A TEENAGER HAVING TEENAGER EXPERIENCES

Like, yeah maybe you have traits, that's totally valid, but you don't have that disorder, you can still save yourself from having that disorder for life, your personality isn't fully developed yet and you can prevent actually developing the disorder

Putting on that label while you can still prevent the disorder won't let you heal in order to not develop said disorder, you're basically cursing yourself and you will actually end up with a personality disorder in some years

[low-empathy-advocacy]

don't say "empathy" when you mean "helping others."

don't say "empathy" when you mean "moral values."

don't say "empathy" when you mean "taking people's problems into account."

don't say "empathy" when you mean "stand up for people who can't stand up for themselves."

don't say "empathy" when you mean "sense of justice."

don't say "empathy" when you mean "doing right things."

Remember that not everyone with AvPD is conventionally quiet.

We all avoid things differently, and some people may talk a lot in some or all situations because it makes them feel less vulnerable. That doesn’t mean they don’t have AvPD or that their AvPD is less “severe.”

AvPD isn’t social anxiety plus. Because of that, the type of interaction often plays a major role in our fear. For some, the only situations that bring them fear are ones that involve personal connection. For most, all situations are terrifying, but we’ve had to learn to hide it or overcompensate in most. If we can’t hide it, it means we are completely unable to cope.

The impact a disorder has on a person can’t be determined by its visibility.

[paranoidpdsuggestion]

you ever just wanna say 'fuck it' and act like a complete caricature of the worst of your personality disorder even though you know it's gonna make you look like an asshole/annoying/etc. to perso/neurotypicals and make other people with the PD look 'bad', but you don't care anymore? like we are gonna be villainized by these people for the rest of time, why should we care to appease them anymore if they aren't ever gonna listen to us or our experiences anyway

[avpdpossum]

the “i can’t seem to connect with other people, i must be fundamentally broken or not trying hard enough” -> “turns out there’s nothing wrong with me, i’m just autistic” -> “all the autistic people i know get along so well together and i still can’t connect with any of them, maybe i really am just fundamentally broken” -> “why didn’t anyone tell me avpd exists, this explains everything” pipeline is so real.

if your social skills are dogshit even compared to other socially anxious autistics, i see you. i am you. it’s fucking rough out here but at least we’re in these trenches together.

kissing everyone with a personality disorder from ANY cluster on the forehead (or giving you a cool blanket or flowers or a badge) you're so cool <333

It's late at night, I drew a picture. I should be studying, I won't sleep tonight.

Since starting my recovery journey I've been so proud of myself for not indulging in sleep deprivation but this week is kicking my ass. There is always this nagging - stop sleeping, stop eating, stop owning things etc. It makes me feel worse but it also makes me feel insanely better. Nothing more torturous yet joyful than keeping yourself awake for almost two days, hungry and on the verge of collapsing but still going. I pride myself in it even though it sounds horrifying. And when the night is over, i put on makeup and go to school. Nobody has to know, my little secret, in a way I guess it makes me feel like I'm better than everyone else. I can free myself from sleep, I can defy my own body, that's my peak of control.
