Traits from other P.D.s you have...Another fun filled thread

According to professionals and various online tests, I exhibit many traits of each personality disorder with the exceptions of Histrionic and Anti-Social, of which I exhibit only a few traits.

Two main descriptives of me would be Schizotypal and Borderline. I have a few Avoidant traits, but not a substantial amount, when compared to some of the other posters here. However, I like to post and read here because I enjoy some of the people and their thoughts and agree with certain aspects of their philosophies.

Generally, though, most people would classify me far more toward the Schizotypal spectrum than the Avoidant. Too bad they overlap so much, I suppose. But that's psychology...

Paranoid:
-Suspects, without sufficient basis, that others are exploiting, harming, or deceiving him or her
-Is preoccupied with unjustified doubts about the loyalty or trustworthiness of friends or associates
-Reads benign remarks or events as threatening or demeaning
-Tendency to bear grudges persistently i.e. refusal to forgive insults and injuries or slights

Borderline:
-Inappropriate anger or difficulty controlling anger
-Chronic feelings of emptiness, worthlessness.

Dependent:
-Has difficulty initiating projects or doing things on his or her own (because of a lack of self-confidence in judgment or abilities rather than a lack of motivation or energy)

Avoidant: everything

hmmm... ###$

Ehhh........ well one I know is probably a bit borderline.... I don't know if they do this exactly, but sometimes I'll be thinking about a person I'll normally like and it's like I start viewing them in a bad light..... I may like you one day, and then suddenly within hours you disgust me. I can talk myself out of this and like you again, though.

Probably paranoid and maybe borderline again:
I do something similar where, out of self-preservation, I constantly watch everything you say, looking for a sign not to trust you and whatnot. I'm looking for danger, so I don't get hurt. It's exhausting being so vigliante and keeping tabs on every fault or the 'suspscious' things a person says.

I hate doing this, I can never trust anyone ever, and sometimes come close to ruining relationships over what could be nothing. Also, it keeps me depressed with them because there is always something to be unhappy about. I think I blow stupid things out of proportion.
What's funny is no one knows I do all this, not even my best friends or my ex noticed, because I can hide it well.

OCPD:
Being overconscientious, scrupulous, and inflexible about matters of morality, ethics, or values
Inability to discard worn-out or worthless objects even when they have no sentimental value (I fix things until they can't be fixed anymore, use stuff down to the nub, hoard things that catch my eye or could have a use unlikely as it may be, pack rat...)
Adopting a miserly spending style toward both self and others; money is viewed as something to be hoarded for future catastrophes
Stubborn and rigid

Lolz, according the DSM, you need at least 4 symptoms to be diagnosed with OCPD, and I just made that. Hahaha. I remember a time in life in which it was 6 (all of which were to considerable degrees) and then the AvPD among other things. I was verrrrry neurotic then. Good times.

Paranoid:
- reads hidden demeaning or threatening meanings into benign remarks or events
- persistently bears grudges, i.e., is unforgiving of insults, injuries, or slights
- perceives attacks on his or her character or reputation that are not apparent to others and is quick to react angrily or to counterattack
- suspiciousness and a pervasive tendency to distort experience by misconstruing the neutral or friendly actions of others as hostile or contemptuous

Schizoid:
- excessive preoccupation with fantasy and introspection;

Avoidant:
- persistent and pervasive feelings of tension and apprehension;
- belief that one is socially inept, personally unappealing, or inferior to others;
- excessive preoccupation with being criticized or rejected in social situations;
- unwillingness to become involved with people unless certain of being liked;

Dependent:
- subordination of one's own needs to those of others on whom one is dependent, and undue compliance with their wishes;
- unwillingness to make even reasonable demands on the people one depends on;
- preoccupation with fears of being abandoned by a person with whom one has a close relationship, and of being left to care for oneself;
- limited capacity to make everyday decisions without an excessive amount of advice and reassurance from others.
- has difficulty expressing disagreement with others because of fear of loss of support or approval
- goes to excessive lengths to obtain nurturance and support from others, to the point of volunteering to do things that are unpleasant
- urgently seeks another relationship as a source of care and support when a close relationship ends

Obsessive Compulsive:
- is overconscientious, scrupulous, and inflexible about matters of morality, ethics, or values
- shows rigidity and stubbornness

Borderline:
- frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment
- identity disturbance: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self
- affective instability due to a marked reactivity of mood
- chronic feelings of emptiness

I think that's it. Identify most with dependent. Borderline quite a bit but instead of getting angry at people I have extreme fear of them getting angry at me. It feels like the worst thing in the world. And I'll do anything to avoid it. I find it hard to be angry at people I'm dependent on. If I am angry I'm constantly worried that me being angry will make them angry. And I don't push people away like borderlines.

Why not take the test?
