[quote=Anonymous]OP look up demand-avoidant.  There are two types (someone correct me if I'm wrong), one is anxiety-based and called PDA (pathological demand avoidance) and one is ODD (oppositional )

Agree with PP that a good therapist FOR YOU can really help.  I'm in my mid-50s--- from a generation and/or demographic where we suck it up and don't go to a therapist because "friends are free therapy."  I decided to go about 1.5 years ago.  The first one was way too young and I couldn't connect, the other was just not the right fit, then the third one was the charm...for me, I needed someone older...like a matriarch.  Like my mom in all the good ways, but also experienced/educated in this stuff, and in none of the unhelpful ways, as in not involved in family dynamics.

Anyways, the reason it's so good is because nobody in your life except a therapist can focus just on YOU.  Add training to that, and it's so helpful. Not just to hear you vent, but to help you see what's going on, and then to help you navigate forward.[/quote]
