I'm too young to have been diagnosed with one of the 'big' personality disorders, but I'm already diagnosed with OCD and possible bipolar disorder.
Believe it or not my 'schizoid' diagnoses occurred at the ages of 13 and 14. Which is technically too young.

As far as I know, you can't have Schizoid AND Schizotypal, or Asperger's Syndrome AND Schizoid, because they exclude each other. At least this is what the ICD-10 says.

Oh, most definitely avoidant, though I shouldn't actually be diagnosed with a personality disorder because I'm too young. That said, any of the Cluster A (paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal) disorders could also fit reasonably well.
Schizoid(or schizotypal), narcissistic, and obsessive compulsive disorders with the addition of some kind of generalized anxiety disorder would probably describe me to an extent if all were taken together. But Aspergers would explain the same problems by itself and leave a much simpler explanation.
