You are how you are, end of.

Just cos it might have a name doesn't mean you need fixing.

Unless of course you believe you need fixing.
Agreed. People diagnosed with Schizoid PD don't see it as an issue. Regardless of the fact that it has an official diagnosis, schizoid could be easily translated to "loner by choice". There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, if you enjoy being alone. I was diagnosed with schizoid traits in the past and I never made much of it because that's just how I am, an introvert.

If you feel like this is something that needs to be addressed/changed, you may not have schizoid pd and it could be something more along the lines of social anxiety.
Thanks for this!
