I was thinking about making a long wall of text talking about my life this last year, but i dont feel like it right now.
But i need opinions about something that concerns me.
A year ago, i suffered a mental breakdown. I had to move to my parents, and ive been living with them (again) this last year. I was lucky enough to convince the government to change my job, so i could work in the city they live.
Anyway...
Some time after, i was forced to go to therapy, and, something very weird happened to me. A couple of psychiatrist diagnosed me with Paranoid Personality Disorder. Officially. These people are not related to the government, i paid for their services, so i didnt lose my job. It took them a long time to came to the conclusion... but both did it. They dont know each other, and they gave me the same reasons for their diagnosis. They are both old males, and have no reason to lie to me. I kind of trust one of them, he is high IQ, 40 years of experience, and i know he would not diagnose me with this if he wasnt completely sure. But he is.
I didnt mention that im an incel (and even if i did, they probably dont know what it is, i live in Spain). I just told them the truth: ive tried it all and failed. I never had friends or a gf, im a virgin, and its because im short, ugly and an aspie. I told them my life and my experiences, and how people treated me my whole life. I told them about every rejection, about the extreme isolation i live in, etc. But both of them just ignore it all and blame a mental condition i didnt even know i had. At least none of them told me that im making things up. They both realize that given my looks and personal biography, its reasonable that i had a lot of trouble finding a gf. But, according to them, those slim chances are ruined by the PD.
One of them also recognized that i was in the autistic spectrum, but according to him, thats the least of my mental problems. And he insists on treating the personality disorder i am supposed to suffer. I went to therapy for months, but im still not convinced. Im just not sure. I dont know what to think.
I also got a mayor depression diagnosis, but that was obvious for everyone. Thats why im taking antidepressants.
At the beginning i just rejected both diagnosis, and i was a bit disappointed because i thought that both of them were pretty bad at their job. But ive been reading and watching videos about it these lasts months, and right now im not sure what to think. Also, they make pretty convincing arguments. For example: absolutely no person with PPD goes to therapy willingly. And thats my case, i was forced to go to therapy by my parents and the government after the breakdown. I thought that, at least, i could get my Aspergers officially recognized, so it wasnt a complete waste of time.
I share most of the symptoms:

I would react to every situation as a person with PPD. For me, its the most logical. Doesnt everyone think like this? Am i the only one that automatically distrusts everyone?
Theres a lot of academical material about this personality disorder, im not gonna link it all.
If its true, its a problem i will have my whole life. There is no cure, or meds, not even therapy (which is barely useful anyway if true... again, confirmed by my experience). If its true, i will probably spend (waste) my whole life isolated, exactly as i am now, due to something i can barely understand or accept. Even if i was tall and attractive, people with PPD live isolated lives....
So, i would like to know...
Am i the only one diagnosed with this personality disorder?
What do you think about this kind of diagnosis given that im an incel?
Could my incel condition make them both commit the same mistake?
I just dont know what to think about it. And it disturbs me every day
Am i really crazy?
Thanks for reading.

I share most of the symptoms:
- Doubt the commitment, loyalty, or trustworthiness of others, believing others are exploiting or deceiving them.
- Are reluctant to confide in others or reveal personal information because they are afraid the information will be used against them.
- Are unforgiving and hold grudges.
- Are hypersensitive and take criticism poorly.
- Read hidden meanings in the innocent remarks or casual looks of others.
- Perceive attacks on their character that are not apparent to others; they generally react with anger and are quick to retaliate.
- Are generally cold and distant in their relationships with others, and might become controlling and jealous to avoid being betrayed.
- Cannot see their role in problems or conflicts, believing they are always right.
- Have difficulty relaxing.
- Are hostile, stubborn, and argumentative.
- Tend to develop negative stereotypes of others.
