I was recently diagnosed with Schizoid personality disorder but have had the symptoms for a long time. I have been in different stages of 'lonerness'. From being a complete recluse a few months back to now where I have a couple of groups of 'friends' who i lie to the whole time. Now I can see I am going back to isolation and am quite pleased with that because my 'friends' annoy the hell out of me.

Anyway, a few weeks ago, my older sister died. We weren't close and we were indifferent to each other but i literally feel NOTHING. I know that usually i am emotionally indifferent but i would have thought i would react more than this. I think i have crossed the line from being schizoid to being emotionless.

Hi,
I have spd too. From what I understand, being emotionless is part of the progression of the schizoid trip, we get 'exiled' from other humans, then 'exiled' even from our own feelings.
But I believe healing is possible if you want it.
There are 2 of us here in London who id with schizoid and weve been having a weekly study group, - just incase you're interested.
I'm the same as you said in that other post, I get phobic about anybody clinging to me, feels like being stiffled or drowned.
all the best,
riverx
