It's not just a case of social anxiety. No! Avoidant Personality Disorder is an ever-present, all out fear of relating to people. Not just certain people, but all people. Why? This group purposefully avoids people due to fears of humiliation and rejection. It affects their functioning in everyday life.
Our guest, Trish Poce, has been living with AvPD since she was a youngster. Now, she's 58 years old and it's only in the last ten or so years that Trish can say her life is a "little bit better". She shares her trouble-filled life story in hopes that others who are floundering can benefit from her experiences.
