No, avoidance is an important part of paranoia. It is the chief behavioral result of a paranoid psychology. So you feel "safe" from something, because you avoid it. This avoidance, however, may be maladaptive and lead to further behavioral issues- such as avoiding medical care in the first place, which then impacts your health and survivability. The fact that you point to your own syntonic reaction simply speaks to the lack of insight you have to your own condition.
Ironically, I got you to say that everyone has a personality disorder, and yet you immediately reject such notions about yourself. This is also classic, and well-known. Soon I shall have you within my clutches, and prescribe you medicines in order to destroy your brain. There is nothing you can do about it. I'm just that good and that evil.
As an illustrative example, take for instance the obsessive-compulsive who must frequently wash their hands. The act of washing their hands removes the anxiety of fear about disease, for a time. Then the fear re-asserts itself, and the compulsion is once again needed to alleviate the anxiety. You, in this example, are clearly obsessive about mental health, this fear generates anxiety, this anxiety generates the compulsive needs to write about it, and about psychiatry.
In about two weeks, this post will wear-off, and your anxiety will reassert itself, thus prompting another post, either aimed at the clergy or the medical field. The focus of your anxiety is in the adaptive identification of your problem with an organization or institution. This way you can handle it. It alleviates your anxiety, if you can name it. This is, however, a misidentification of a deeper pathology, an unconscious desire to have sex with your father.
