Avoidant Personality Disorder, sometimes abbreviated as AVPD, is a relatively rare personality disorder that makes a person abnormally...well, avoidant.
Symptoms of Avoidant Personality Disorder can include:
-Extreme sensitivity to criticism or rejection, even if done in a nice way
-Social isolation, due to only hanging out with people who will accept them and avoiding people who are critical
-Fear of conflict; not voicing complaints, lest the subject(s) of the complaint react harshly
-Extremely low self-esteem; lower than that of a person suffering from depression
-Crippling shyness
-Being easily embarrassed or flustered
-Over-explaining a lot to avoid any potential misunderstandings
-Being unresponsive to any forms of communication (particularly verbal communication), especially if they are unhappy with someone, or vice versa
-Having trouble asking for help
-Extreme indecisiveness
Mental and personality disorders are different for everyone, but it doesn't make them any less serious.

A popular song that has been covered too many times to count. The Creedence Clearwater Revival version is the most popular one.
Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might've been
Big wheel keeps on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' on the river
Working for the man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might've been
Big wheel keeps on turning
Proud Mary keeps on burning
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin' on the river
