It says a lot of things, but it's basically a list from my doctor of what diagnoses I have.

The codes are from ICD-10.

F33.9 Recurrent depressive disorder
F43.2 Adjustment disorder
F60.9 Avoidant personality disorder

The last one I found most interesting. When I've read about it, it really fits. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avoidant_personality_disorder
I have most of these symptoms. It's kinda a relief to know this is an actual disorder and not just a personality trait.

It also says I show signs of social phobia. I always thought I had social phobia, but Avoidant Personality Disorder fits a lot better.

Now I just wish we could get on with the tests so I can find out if I have ADD or not. (ADD is kinda like ADHD, but without hyperactivity). ADD is according to new studies more common in girls, and it's harder to find because there may not be much outward signs.

Wow!
I hope you find peace through all of this. Suppose knowing and having a name for something can help understand your needs with it. :) Good luck Jojjo!
Thanks Beqi *hugs* *NM*
