News of Dependent Personality Disorder

Ever since I left home 4 years ago I've struggled with DPD, and my best way of dealing with it was by being fully committed to a relationship. I know a lot of people with DPD struggle with keeping a relationship because clingy behavior drives their partner away, but having had so much practice at being in relationships, I kind of learned to suppress those feelings of wanting to display clingy behaviour so it doesn't ...

Hello everyone!

I've just joined the forums today and this is my first post, so I thought I would put myself out there to see if there are any other people suffering from the same illness as I am.

I was recently diagnosed with Dependent Personality Disorder, which was both a relief and also a curse I guess. I can see why I would harbour such a diagnosis; I am often clingy, and rely on ...

I am madly in love with my boyfriend and we have been dating for almost two years now. We have both always been so close and so in love, but recently I have become so overly attached to him and I think it's starting to cause him to back off and distance himself. Everyone tells me I need to distance myself too and not make myself so available because coming off as too attached will ...

So I have noticed very quickly that this forum is very...unfilled. On just the first page of threads, I can see questions that were last answered in 2011. And most of the threads that have been made since then have single digit replies. So I'm not expecting that this subforum will suddenly be filled with responses and questions just from me making one thread. But I think that many people with DPD may come here ...

I am new here. I've been reading a lot about Dependent Personality Disorder and I seem to have one or some other personality disorder. In my previous relationship, I was very dependent on my significant other. I have been single for a few years by now, but I have someone that I consider more than a friend for quite some time.

We have crossed line, and things have been going on for over a year ...

Well I don't have any real friends anymore, so I'm lonely most of the time and have been having some very bad depression a lot of the time recently. I was just diagnosed with DPD with AVPD tendencies along with social anxiety. Anyways, does anyone want to chat more via Skype, Facebook or some kind of IM? I'd really like to hear from people who are similar to me, maybe we can talk about treatment ...

Well I'm pretty sure I have DPD. But I also have AVPD traits as well. Is there any hope for some kind of peace or recovery at all? I have been going through some really bad dysphoria lately and I feel like I'm losing interest and passion with things. I also feel like I might eventually turn to drugs because I'm not sure how else to get out of this. Stuff like cocain seems like ...
