My dx is schizoid. And, for me, i think it's an issue of safety and maybe one or 2 other things I can't put into words.

I do know my counselor is getting frustrated with me because I can't talk. I knew it before she even voiced the fact. I think i can agree with what puffyprue said about being "sensitive" too, to an extent. I think i'm more sensitive than most when it comes to picking up others' moods and attitudes towards whatever. Then again, I've always been an avid people watcher so that probably plays into the sensitivity factor.

I've gone off track and am just rambling now...i haven't slept much in the last few days.

I guess I'd throw in my 2 cents for what it's worth
