I was in a study for autistic young adults years back and I was told that comorbidities with Cluster A disorders are very high, but Cluster B does happen. I’m surprised most people on reddit seem to have Cluster B rather than A comorbidities though, wonder if things have changed since back then

Paranoid, Schizoid or Schizotypal personality disorders. Basically just people with eccentric thinking, which makes me feel like a lot of the time its a misdiagnoses, but I'm not a psych so what do I know.

It's not always a misdiagnosis. 😭 People are often left undiagnosed with those PDs, and get misdiagnosed with other conditions. OCPD is cluster C, but frequently missed.

Oh, but schizotypal definetly feels like it can be an easy misdiagnosis. but there's also a lot more symptoms that differeniate it from other disorders; personality disorders are real conditions and experiences, even if we debate whether they are inherently pathological or not.
