Too much hypothetical question. Maybe self-counciouss about my looks, criticized about somethin I made, although sure that this person doesnt know anything about that.

I understand.

For me I get slightly annoyed if they keep doing it. It used to be a lot worse when I was in my 20s. Even if a kid was staring at me I would glare at them.

Now I think I have ideas of reference. If a group of people are laughing I automatically wonder if they are laughing at me, for example.

Yes, I think so. But it's calmed down a bit over the years as I am less egocentric than I was before.

But I'm wondering if this is from my borderline, avoidant or schizotypal traits. Therapist says it is probably from my history of being bullied, mocked and shamed.

My husband says I am somewhat paranoid and when I read about PPD a lot of it reminds me of myself. Probably not enough for the full diagnosis though.

Having all these traits from various PDs is very, very annoying.

What is the Serious type, cn? I took the test again and got devoted/sensitive/serious followed by leisurely and mercurial. Speaking of devoted, I MUST have a dependent personality type since it's the one I always score highest on on all these tests.

http://www.ptypes.com/serious.html
The interests of the Serious Personality Type include (Oldham, pg. 366):

suffering no illusions
seeing things as they are
not expecting to be popular
carrying on in even the worst of circumstances
being able to endure in a "harsh climate"
having strength in hard times

Associated with depressive PD.

Avoidant/dependent/depressive sounds like a typical combo for some reason, lol.

Thanks for the info, appreciate it.
