Apparently that's what I am, and I'm not really sure what it is! Anyone else here with Schizotypal PD in their list of Dx's? Most people I find are Schizoid and I don't think it's the same thing.

I read about it, and it sure seems to make sense to me on the screen, but I can't put it together out in the RW. I mean I know I'm weird and people don't understand me or give me funny looks but I don't know...I've learned how to not be so weird, at least when I'm around people. I've got a T and he's helping me with a lot of stuff but I don't know what to ask him about this because I don't really grasp how I'm sick.

I quit drinking a while back, and that taught me that it's all a system. Recovering isn't just about fixing this bit and that bit, because it's all related. That helps me a lot because then I can make the connections between today's problems and last week's problems. Pretty cool. But if it's all a system, then where are these dots? I can't unlearn whatever I'm doing wrong if I don't know what it is. Sometimes I'll realize something and that helps, but usually it just feels like "don't talk about electrical fields and ESP" and "don't do this" and "don't do that". If I understood how all those things fit together, then I'd know the system and I could get better.

But the depression doesn't help. On top of that i feel like I'm the only person out there with this disorder, so I can't even ask questions. Not a lot of stuff on the WEB that doesn't just quote the DSM.

Thanks
