>>7627839I feel similarly. Have you ever considered yourself having Schizoid Personality Disorder (SPD)/ being diagnosed with it, or do you think something else like anxiety better explains your behavior? Do you think your disposition is detrimental?
I'd like to believe I enjoy solitude more than avoiding people because of an underlying anxiety, intolerance for intimacy, etc., but when I review the evidence for either case avoidance for other reasons seems to explain more of my behaviors, but I strongly relate to some of the distinct symptoms. I've never been tested for it and I probably never will be.
