If I were to diagnose myself with personality disorder(s) I would either say I have either schizotypal pd by itself (but with traits of other disorders) or schizoid pd and borderline pd together.
My primary and most evident/overt traits fit well into cluster A, including traids of spd, stpd, and ppd. However, I have bad general anxiety despite my tranquil outer demeanor, and I feel that my perspective on the world and the way I interpret things is similar to that of those with bpd. It would also make the most genetic sense, as I believe my mother to be borderline with histrionic and narcissistic features. I am quite emotionally regulated, and don't get lonely or even want friendships, and both of those things are very contradictory to bpd, but like a bpd I am hyper vigilant, always looking into what people say, and I have an aversion to change. Essentially I become almost instantly filled with worry if someone suddenly acts differently around me than usual. However, I am extremely passive and never rage when something bothers me. If anything I just withdraw more.
