How To Spot The Signs Of Schizoid Personality Disorder

What are the signs of schizoid personality disorder?

These people are gonna be loners. They enjoy solitary activities. They like, they prefer being alone. As I mentioned before, they will not display intense emotions and they will report that they don't have any. Now, when I mention solitary activities, though, it is usually of the computer, electrical, take-the-vacuum-cleaner-apart-and-put-it-back-together type. These are not going to be romanticized solitary activities. You're not going to see a schizoid individual walking on the beach in the moonlight, you know, that's way too sensual and sexy for them. They will not have relationships with other people, including immediate family. They don't crave any kind of intimacy with others. They're not interested in sexual relationships with other people. Part of the disorder is that they are indifferent to the praise or criticism of other people and so in terms of their inability to function in a social setting, you know, you can't even guilt this person or shame them into coming to social events or interacting with other people so it's pretty disabling.
