condition name:
schizoid personality disorder
condition information:
Our personality is constructed by deeply ingrained patterns of behaviour and thoughts, and is essentially the way in which we relate to, perceive and think about the world and ourselves. Personality traits are how we exhibit our personality in a wide range of social and personal contexts.
Schizoid personality disorder in particular can cause sufferers and those around them a great deal of distress. This page will explore the condition in more depth, looking into causes and symptoms as well as the recommended forms of schizoid personality disorder treatment.
chizoid personality disorder is a relatively uncommon condition where sufferers have a significantly limited range of emotional experience and expression. As a result they will attempt to avoid social situations and close interaction with others - preferring to spend time alone, absorbed in their own thoughts and feelings. Those with the condition can find it difficult to lead normal lives, as any kind of communication - in the workplace, at home or in any interpersonal setting - is hindered.
