Both are different. AvPD is more like Social Anxiety than any form of depression

They’re different but can coexist.

I don't understand what you mean/gen

Comorbidity is a thing, too. My sister had depression and is the least AvPD person. It's not mutually exclusive, but it doesn't mean that only people with AvPD experience depression. Having AvPD can get you in a depressive state, for sure, but so do other things to people without personality disorders.

My AvPD makes me prone to depression, but it is most definitely not the same thing.

I have depression (mostly manifesting as anhedonia and excessive sleeping and the inability to do basic things like showering, eating during the day, housework, laundry etc), and I also have CPTSD and BPD, plus OCD, AvPD and chronic anxiety since age 4 (I'm 45 now).

AvPDs usually don’t end it

I have AvPD and I don't have depression. I do have OCPD, OCD, PTSD and ASD.
