This project aims to explore the overlooked perspective of young Chinese people suffering from Avoidant Personality Disorder (AVPD), one of the most prevalent personality disorders that impacts everyday life. It inquires into the prevalence of a diagnostic culture in psychiatry and mental health in which diagnostic terms extend beyond psychiatric definitions. It asks: Are we in danger of losing sight of the historical and social factors that shape how we experience the world? In the Chinese context a combination of lack of medical evidence, self-pathologisation and stigmatization make treatment difficult and often lead to isolation and disconnection. Avoidant Space explores the importance of decentralized community building and peer support. It builds a grassroots, online peer support community for AVPD. It supports people in reflecting on and gaining deeper understanding of the complex system underlying this simplistic diagnostic term.
该项目旨在探索患有回避型人格障碍 (AVPD) 的中国年轻人被忽视的观点,AVPD 是影响日常生活的最普遍的人格障碍之一。它调查了精神病学和心理健康中诊断文化的盛行,其中诊断术语超出了精神病学定义。它问:我们是否有可能忽视影响我们体验世界的历史和社会因素?在中国的背景下,缺乏医学证据、自我病态化和污名化使治疗变得困难,并常常导致孤立和脱节。Avoidant Space 探索去中心化社区建设和同伴支持的重要性。它为 AVPD 建立了一个基层的在线同伴支持社区。
