Movies with this character type?
I feel personally attacked.
>>214494538you cant because i feel attacked as well, therefore not
>>214494538>>214494556Why are they attacking us bros?
https://www.imdb.com/list/ls561188821/For you OP
>>214494603Most of those movies are pretty good
moids self-diagnose themselves with this constantly to pathologize the fact that they just never attempted to put themselves out thereyou just have mommy/daddy issues and aspergers bruh
>>214494664Schizoid disorder can basically only be self diagnosed since by their nature they'd never go to a therapist
>>214494538>>214494556>>214494602Support group and funding needed.
>>214494664people thought i was gay and weird when i put myself out there.
>>214494442this is just called being a normal person
>>214494817normalfags literally have mental breakdowns when they go a few weeks without sex or socializing.
>>214494829no they don't, stop believing silly clickbait headlines
>>214494849>no they don'tcope. it's normal to have sex often and socialize with a friend group. not doing those things gets you labeled as a creeper.
>>214494664I wish a cute stinky femcel would be my gf
>>214494442Why is acting like that a problem?
>>214494849A lot of people seemed weirdly brain broke by covid lockdown when it was a breeze for me.
>>214494960normalfags are still talking about muh trauma from covid lockdowns. about how kids will never be normal now because of the lockdowns and a whole generation is doomed forever. it's crazy to see so often still when it didn't affect me at all.
>>214494960You don't think that might have had anything to do with the governments constantly telling everyone they were imminently going to be living in a zombie wasteland?
going to the wrong school can afflict you with this forever
>>214495035never finding a likeminded friend group during your formative years basically mentally stunts you for life.
>>214494960literally nothing changed in my routine during covid lmaoooo
>>214495035Ya, i went to a ghetto high school and got bullied. I had bad social anxiety and just stayed in my room and played video games, im 29 and dont know how to make friends or make relationships last. It's probably over and now im coping with that fact.
>>214495125You should troon out and show off your bussy
>>214495133What would I gain
>>214495125if you're whining about not having friends then you are NOT the chad sir safe
beau was afraid
>>214494442The funny thing is that schizoids are not necessarily maladjusted in any way, they can function perfectly fine and be entirely satisfied with their solitary lifestyles, but normie psychiatrists insists it's a disorder because they're mad people can live in a way they couldn't personally handle lmao
>>214495161>whiningwhen>you are NOT the chad sir safewhat?
>>214494442"Remains of the day" with A. Hopkins. It's your typical 90s melodrama, but worth watching if you're into WWII period pieces.
>>214495175It's why calling it a "disorder" is retarded. It's Schizoid Personality Type you foid cunt.
>>214495310I didn't write the DSM-5, retard. Learn some reading comprehension.
>>214494442I'm 5'6, bald, and have a lazy eye. But I still had pretty normal HS and young adult experiences and married a hot wife. I don't get how people get so down on themselves to never try.
>>214495347I wasn't call you a foid cunt lmao I was just yelling into the void at non existent women psychologists on this board.
>>214494960I occasionally got antsy wanting to go get coffee outside and watch the world go by and people watch, so I just switched to 4k city tour videos and bought a tassimo lol
>>214495310 >>214495175Schizoid personality disorder is extreme, dysfunctional version of schizoid personality type. I've learned about it when completing neuropsychologic evaluation tests.
>>214495383>normalfag is incapable of having sympathy and understanding for someone that's not like himevery time.
>>214495527Well then I have the disorder since I haven't left my house other than to buy smokes or beer in a month.
>>214495175im no big city doctor, but yes my understanding is these things become a problem when it inhibits ones own desires or impedes on others, and this situations is neither
>>214495551Really drives me mad how the answer is always "just try" and when i explain anytime I stuck my head out of the gutter I got shit on it's "you just didnt try hard enough"
>>214495617>anytime I stuck my head out of the gutter I got shit onrosenberg?
How do you make friends as a loner 30 year old where your only interest and hobbies are solitary and you have no interest in taking dance lessons or joining a running club or some other bullshit
>>214494442Alright, sad to see there isn't much actual response from this, I actually have collected a lot of Schizoid Movies. It's important to remember that the symptoms are just what's observable from the outside, not the internal mindset.Lars and the Real GirlUp In The AirZeligThe Remains of the DayDriveThe Batman (2022)The Lobsterand basically every Spike Jonze movie
>>214495673that's the neat part, you don't.
>>214495673stop caring about rejection and walk up to someone (politely with a smile) you are attracted to or seems interesting and say something funny or silly or just hey can i have your number
>>214494664This is true for like, 2/3rds of Zoomers males who larp as schitzos
>>214495696>>214495724It's joever.
That kind of person doesn't exist almost anywhere because most people who seem like that secretly have romance fantasies and are extremely sensitive to praise or criticism and sit home to avoid both.
>>214495383>>214495383>I don't get how people get so down on themselves to never try.exactly, you dont get it, and never will, you will never know what its like to feel completely alone when youre in a room full of people, so go hug your little wife and enjoy your life while you still can because life is very short
>>214494442my biopic desu
>>214495724>News at 4, stunning brave woman fends off rapist with pepper spray at the kinoplex on 4th

>>214495794Learn how to post you retard troon
>>214494442if you think this applies to you but you're upset about it then it doesn't apply to you
>>214495785um, i said "politely with a smile" implying not being forceful... when they say "i have a boyfriend" or "no thanks" i say "ok have a good day" and move on to the next one (aka stop caring about rejection)
>>214495815Excuse me?
>>214495673i dont know, i only ever had one friend and we met playing tf2 15 years ago or so and he just happened to live in driving distance. if you dont have any friends at 30 then you gotta find yourself one of those lonely hearts clubs or maybe even hit up the homeless shelters(plenty of single lonely men there)
>>214494442do you ever wonder if it's genetic or if people in this century are just extremely fucking boring?and yes I have assburgers>>214495821imagine hating people but also hating hobbies. that must suck. poor anons. probably depression if anything though
>>214495745cope. im a sigma male, others opinions about me dont matter.
>>214495881>maybe even hit up the homeless shelters(plenty of single lonely men there)He wants a friend not to go cruisin' for some crack rocks
If you are similar to this but actually want relationships and have very bad self esteem, you have AVPD, not schizoidIt is similar but different
>>214495908We all know that's not the truth, anon. You hide your feelers away because you can't handle them. C'mere and give me a hug
>>214495909hey like i said, i dont know how to make friends or where they congregate or what their natural habitats
>>214494960>isn’t it weird how us introverted shut-ins with no friends… >weren’t troubled by the lockdowns? >and can you believe popular people who go out constantly were bothered?>weird huh I sure remember seeing fucking retard posts of the same variety…
>>214495926>you have AVPDprobably not even that most of the time. just bad anxiety/social anxiety is enough to cripple you socially if you're not a woman.
>>214494442>Syes>Ino, I despise praise and generally take actions that do not lead to criticism>Ryes>Syes>AI enjoy MY activities>FI have several close friends, I've always been quality over quantity on those, I don't really retain loose acquaintances outside of coworkers>Eyesguess I'm not a schizo
>>214495745does being a cloud x aerith shipper count as a romance fantasy?
>>214495980Most schizoids prefer a couple of close friends usually family or another schizoid (if they somehow meet). I was lucky enough to stumble into another neet schizoid with similar interests to me. So I can say I have one friend at least lol
Cast her
>>214495745literally me, sitting at home reading fanfiction and thinking about that cutie working at burger king bringing me my cheeseburger(in my fantasies shes bringing them to me naked save for the burger king apron and those funny hats with the microphone)
>>214496044I didn't get this comic until I realized the joke was that they took a perfectly normal girl and pretended she had a meme mental illness
>>214496044Literally me
>>214496109liviamaxxing
>>214496109There's two strips of her in particular where she channels the very primal spirit of 4chan itself.One, of course, that she learns extensively about things she hates
>>214496247And two, the quintessential hipster
>>214496269I'd believe 90% of this board is schizoids. Some just operate better than others
>>214496295I wonder if it means anything that she has the same verbal tick as our favorite bean eating superhero
>>214495673>30it's over, even normies struggle to make friends at that age now
>>214495527There isn't any established psychiatric or psychological literature that recognizes "personality types". You either have a disorder or not.
>>214496033>Most schizoids prefer a couple of close friendsI pretty much only hang out with my sister and her husband. My cousin too but he's kinda too normie and annoys me sometimes
>>214496247>>214496269>>214496340omg it reads right to left just like my favotrite animes
>>214495673You don’t.
>>214494664>the fact that they just never attempted to put themselves out thereWouldn't this be a symptom of a disorder? (reminder these diagnoses aren't excuses but literally are saying you are fucked up in a way that screws you over)
>>214495892>do you ever wonder if it's geneticNote that the single biggest determining factor for being schizoid is having a first-degree relative with schizophrenia, it increases your chances of being schizoid 7x.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7973465/You're inheriting a diluted version of their madness; they also tend to be solitary and withdrawn but it's because they're working 24/7 on their chart of how the Bank of England is sending Keira Knightley to rape them unless they shoot the mayor of Milwaukee, determined solely through subliminal messages in Lucky Charms commercials
>>214494442if you retards were actually schizoid this whole thread wouldn't be all >tfw no gf this and >how do make friends that, get a grip niggers
Psychiatry is such a Jewish scam.
>>214494442That shit fits everyone over 40 lmao
STOP FLATTERING YOURSELF BY EATING UP ANY RANDOM INFORMATION AND TURNING IT INTO SOME FUCKING STATEMENT ABOUT HOW YOU'RE BETTER THAN THAT OR THAT EVERYONE ELSE IS CRAZY FOR NOT BEING LIKE YOUAND STOP TALKING TO YOURSELF LIKE YOU JUST REALIZED SOMETHING ABOUT REALITY WHEN ALL YOU DID WAS JUST GO INTO YOUR OWN HEAD AND MAKE UP SOMETHING THAT FELT GOOD USING THOUGHTS YOU ALREADY HAD
>>214494960>>214495003>>214495969lol
>>214496510You can be a schizoid and still have a great sense of missing out because normies get to enjoy something you can't and couldn't even if you wanted to. It's not as much>tfw no gfit's more like>having a gf looks fun>tfw couldn't be assed to have a gf>tfw can't have fun
>>214494442I would like to have a relationship tho... what does that make me? Just a loser, I guess.
>>214496393My single remaining cope is to force myself to start attending conventions, I would rather throat a cactus than go to a place like that because I am a textbook avoident but women there are mostly neurodivergent, and there would be other spazzes there like me that would reduce the tension and make me feel more comfortable, plenty of weirdos go to those things alone.
>>214496525I'm glad that I don't have any psychiatric disordersI'm just a based sigma male instead (more powerful than alphas)
>>214496565They made a music video about you>that top comment too lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZL1_sImzKY
>>214494886This is normal? I haven't even spoken to a girl in over a year. They seem to be where I am not.
>>214495908some of us are just built different
>>214496564Avoidant
Nobody posted this one yetNow I get to harvest the garmonbozia
>>214494442π
>>214494442
Here's one. He's literally figuratively me!
>>214494538I am indifferent
>>214494442>tfw could probably be diagnosed as a literal schizoid if I cared enough to see a shrink
>>214496766Y'all scared, boy? Don't be regarded
>>214495175It all starts making sense once you realize mental illness is diagnosed based on how it impedes your function as cattle in normalfaggot society.
>>214494442I used to be like that as a kid, teen and young adult, up until my early-20s when I started putting effort in becoming more social and handle social interactions with new people... then I caught an illness which made most activities outside difficult at the ripe old age of 24 and have been mostly removed from society in real life, working remote to pay the bills. I have internet friends to cope now.
>>214496650>a cluster C [avoidant] personality disorder characterized by excessive social anxiety and inhibition, fear of intimacy, severe feelings of inadequacy and inferiority, and an overreliance on avoidance of feared stimuli as a maladaptive coping method.I don't have social anxiety, but I don't socialize much because I don't have anywhere to go or anything to do, and I would not know where to go in the first instance. I am not afraid of intimacy. I don't feel inadequate or inferior, but it's a fact that I am rather poor, which is limiting. What does that make me?
>>214494960It's crazy too because I see people saying their "formative years were taken by the covid lockdowns" when if you look back at a calender, covid lockdowns were only two months of restrictions lmao. Like it was just a couple of months when you couldn't go to your basketball game or whatever, you should have just went on with your life
>>214496489>mom told me my biological father may have been a schizoIt explains so much of my own behavior. I wonder if she'd connected the dots yet.
>the real definition of schizophrenia is lost to memesclown shit
>>214496934>What does that make me?Nothing. Not everything has to be a disorder or a symptom of a mental illness
>>214496044sounds like a lot of people who are labelled 'autistic'
>>214496998That's what I thought. Just a loser.
>>214496651I'm confused as to how these are all supposed to be symptoms of the same disorder, seems to be describing two entirely different syndromes. But then most psychology is slapdash nonsense so I guess that tracks.
>>214496934>I don't socialize much >I would not know where to go in the first instance.do people outside of north america even have this 'lack of third spaces' problem. it seems like that's americans pretend to care about sportsfag shit.
>>214497065*that's why
>>214495175it's a social bottleneck and it's probably the reason the continent has so many unhinged people.
>>214494442This is a pretty comfy disorder, you're basically immune to loneliness despite being alone.
>>214497065Not as much but I would say it’s gradually increasing, at least in the west. Anything interesting costs some level of money, even if its just the petrol money or god forbid public transport, to drive to the “free” place like a beach or something, and costs are only ever rising. The USA is the only country I know of that has no loitering as a law, but even if you can loiter, its pretty fucking shit, may as well stay home where its comfy.
>>214497065Man, this shit sucks.
>>214497182do british/euro pound shops play pop music over the loudspeakers? that drives me insane, every american pop song sounds like a sexual sermon it's truly bizarre and they're full of words without much clever instrumentation.
>>214497151Most of the people that identify with these traits aren’t really schizoid. They’re just repressed normal people coping with their atomization in modern society. Schizoids aren't Travis Bickle.
>>214497258not him but yh all the shops here basically play only US pop music and mumble shit if thats still relevant, the UK had a small normie house/edm music scene in the 10s and mainstream stations essentially just play that on repeat, with the American stuff.I do all of my shopping at Aldi because I am a poorfag, the bonus is they don't play music in their stores to save on licensing costs and keep the prices low, it's neat.
>>214494442Perfect Days
>>214497160yeah this is a good way of describing it. Over the past 2 years ive spent maybe less than 12 hours with friends in person and feel totally fine
>>214494442um...how do I fix this
>>214494442How does being a detached loner make you a schizo? I don't have delusions.
>>214498121schizoid isn't the same thing as schizophrenic
>>214498139>NOOOOO this made up mental illness isn't like that made up mental illness AT ALL
>>214494442Literally me, except the psychologists are wrong about the whole "le fear and anxiety" thing, in fact I would consider social anxiety an exclusionary feature - that's AVPD etc; Source - I made it upThat nigga that made that whack ass cube of the PD dimensions was correct I'd also argue Schizoid PD is barely a PD and is basically the pathologisation of "normal" behaviour die to the increasing "narcissisisation" of the "social" Overton windowA strange thing about the "disorder" is it really seems to attract "Cluster Bs" (BPDs in an actual attractive manner, NPDs in an attacking manner) somehow erroneously viewing them as a soft target but they're practically impenetrable fortresses for those types.
>>214494442Simultaneously >prone to bizzare amoral "crimes">affected by intense bouts of seemingly irrational altruism (while hiding any such behaviour, avoiding any social "benefit")Ok they got me there
>>214494960The hardest part of "social distancing" was being forced into 24/7 close proximity with extraverts that can't shut the fuck up (and retarded non-stop, nonsense "work" meetings)
>>214495125>bad social anxiety That pretty much excludes a diagnosis of SzPD
>>214494442>indifferent to praise or criticismGod I wish that were me
>>214496565>Avoidant You're practically a cluster B without the delusions, this ain't the thread for you
>>214496489Yes, that's also a good reasoning as to why it isn't really a proper personality disorder (though NPD and BPD are sort of related to genetic psychopathy potentially)
>>214495926It's "similar" but "dimensionally" basically diametrically opposed
>>214496109Is it really symptomatic of a PD if you actually are surrounded by untrustworthy people, like paranoid personality disorder has the disclaimer built in, but no one ever seems to consider it for Schizoid
>>214495682The Buscemi guy from Ghost World
>>214495527I have "unspecified" personality disorder but all I scored was half of NPD + half of BPD and this all happened after I was in a relationship with a BPD crazy bitch lol
>>214499391>after I was in a relationship with a BPD crazy bitch lolBPD is contagious desu. >"I was treated this way, therefore I am free to treat other people this way" That's how I personally thought after my encounter with a BPD.
>>214499410It wasn't that way, I only treated her that way because of how triggering she was. I kept avoiding relationships before I met her. Something with her made it super traumatic and it felt like reliving my abusive childhood with my mom.That being said I have some family issues and my mom was a stereotypical NPD mom.
most people waving around “schizoid” online are just malnourished, underslept, screen addicted shut-ins. if you eat trash, never exercise, don’t touch grass, and burn dopamine with porn/games/scrolling, you will feel flat, detached, emotionally blunted etc. Genuine schizoids are incredibly rare; 9 times out of 10 you just have symptoms that mimic it.
>>214499443to add onto this I have avoidant attachment, however in a relationship with her I became unstable and could flip to incredibly anxious, especially near the end.It felt like I was behaving more BPD-like then her, flipping between hating her and "loving" her.either case, glad it's over as that was a cancer part of my life, can't admit I miss the intensity somewhat compared to normal relationships
what if i like the idea of relationships/friends(and in fact have imagined scenarios where i have them) but havent tried to get out and get them, like im too lazy to actually go and attempt to socialize and get them? im 30 and havent had friends since high school and am a khhv. what does that make me
>>214494442Psychology is a new age scam
How do you know if you are schizoid or just an incel?
>>214498119stop being a faggot
>>214499567See pic>>214499640you're not a schizoid. see >>214499511
>>214499640incels want connection, schizoids don't.incels are anxious, schizoids are avoidant.incels fear rejection, schizoids are living in a fantasy world that matters more to them than personal connections.
>>214499511and that matters because?
>>214499657I stopped being a NEET and got a job recently and met this cool guy with similar interests and he keeps inviting me places but I say no because I would prefer to just stay home and listen to music. What is this called?
>>214494538Did you not read the "I" part of "SIR SAFE"?It would literally be impossible to feel attacked if you were like that.
>>214499710You know he's just inviting you over to touch you inappropriately, it's called being smart.
>>214499511>perfect diet>exercise over an hour daily>still miserable and hate everyone and myself and have zero drive to work or socialize i see. i am just retarded i guess.
>>214498717What altruistic thing did you do?
>>214499567Gay
If i don't get diagnosed with anything then i don't got a problem and all of this is just the way i am.
>>214499899Kill niggers
i went to see a movie by myself just now and there was multiple men who looked significantly worse than me in every way humanly possible with hot, young women and it made me want to kill myself. like actual fat, unhygienic, greasy basement dwellers with conventionally attractive alt and goth girls. something is just inherently wrong with me i guess.
>>214499657im at a healthy weight though, i eat healthy, and i exercise every day via biking to local parks. i am terminally online however
>>214494664>self-diagnose themselves with thisPsychology isn't a medical science, it describes a pattern of behavior. If those things in the OP apply to you then you might call yourself a schizoid but it's not some super unique disorder , especially in the age of the Internet
>>214500030maybe you give off serial killer vibes
>>214496966In Australia that shit went on for two years
>>214494442That image looks comfy>quality chair that can also serve as shelter>cool priceless art so you don't have to work ever again>computer so you always know what's going on in the world>library of congress quality reading lamp

>>214500082i look like john oliver so i really doubt that, i don't think i could even intimidate a child.
>>214494664they fucked old men instead of dating me when I was a teen and when I turned 18 I wasnt interested while they were throwing themselves at me
>>214494442>shut in since I was 11>never cared about girls>I view my body as disgusting and any sexual act would be because they pity me. Millions of guys have better bodies than me, so why bother being with me?>sex with me would be a disgusting act that I don't want to force or make anyone do, I'm fine with being alone forever. I attribute this to SPD and dysmorphia>haven't felt human skin contact or been hugged in over 10 years now, no pets either>takes me weeks to get the courage to go to the store for food or a pizza>haven't been clothes shopping in 10 years, I buy and return everything online>stick to my own interest and hobbies>no IRL friends anymore, everyone has been cut off since pre-covid>live my parents and brother as the main income of the family, WFH job>extremely distant, go months without talking to anyone in my family, haven't spoken to my brother in at least 2 years about anything important. We both avoid each other in the hallways>no one in my family likes being in the same room as each other. we wait our turns to use the kitchen etc.>self isolation has made me socially retarded, I can barely form cohesive thoughts when talking to others, and the thoughts in my head are getting more cloudy>constantly negative about myself in my own head. Every mistake is followed by someone I know telling me what I should have done differently and I always make mistakes like this.>everything takes much more effort to accomplish, while others seemingly have no issues excelling at the things I've tried to be good at. this is a mental fallacy I've dug myself in where I compare my practice and trials to professionals' highlight reels>I don't ever expect anything good to happen, and if something good does happen, I should expect it to be followed with something bad or a catch.>i hate when someone compliments me, they always sound backhanded because they're only said when I've done something menial that everyone else could easily dowhat's the diagnosis
>>214500513american
Schizoid, indeed. That's a perfectly rational response to a lifetime of being treated like complete shit by most people I've met. Different people, different places, different situations, and somehow it all ends with me getting treated like complete shit. Started on day 1 of kindergarten. Withdrawing from everyone is my only sane choice, because by actual evidence, everyone is an asshole; the only difference between them is how long it takes them to treat me like shit. Every friendship I have is conditional on them not treating me like complete shit; the instant it happens, I ghost them. Funny thing, not once has any of them tried to contact me after I drop them; they know what they did, and they know it was deliberate. Why don't these fancy doctors/professors/intellectuals/etc. try to deal with the asshole problem? I have a theory...because they're assholes, too.
>>214500651Can you give examples of how they treat you like shit?
>>214500674Not him, but im not valued by anybody unless they can get something from me.
Marty?
>>214500674Too many to even list, so I'll post one that was especially traumatizing. Years ago, when I went off to college, I made a good-faith effort to not be so bitter, to be more social, all that crap. I met two girls in one of my computer-programming classes; they became my lab partners. I ended up hanging out with them quite a bit outside of class. Once the semester was over, I remember calling them (they were roommates) to see if they wanted to party and hang out. She said "One moment." Then she covered the mouthpiece on the phone badly, and I heard her say "So we are done with him?" I heard an affirmative response. She came back, and in the most mocking, mean-spirited voice she could muster, said "We think you should go play with your computer." I was too shocked to reply, so I mumbled something, and the phone call ended. But it's a typical example; people come out of absolutely nowhere and treat me like shit.
>>214500727Unfortunately, that's the way this world is. I had a friend who had this view but at an extreme level. Ironically, he thought everyone was against him even though he exploited other people the most. He never thought twice about freeloading off other people, but absolutely refuse to help others.
>>214495013weird place you must be living in
>>214494711Then it doesn't count. There's no officialily to self-diagnosis and it's not accepted or respected by anyone who is told of it. Self-diagnosing yourself is meaningless. It's just used for delusion and to try and garner sympathy.

>>214499950You're a pedophile who is attracted to little girls and watches little girl cartoons like a pervert. You have LOTS of problems, incel shitbag. KYS
>>214500030Yeah, you're hallucinating. Your eyes are tricking you. You saw no overweight and greasy men with attractive women. You just see the world that way now. You must be hideous.
Une Homme Qui Dort.
>>214500782They used you and dumped you. You probably give off the impression to other people that you're easy to take advantage of.
>>214500961That's a bass-ackwards way of saying I'm a decent person and everyone else is an asshole. Hence my conclusion.
>>214494442I'm only like 35 pages into it, but this sure sounds like the book "Steppenwolf".
>>214500782Damn. Be more selective and try to read people better. You chose some shallow bitches to befriend and they used you I guess to pass the class. Was the outside of class hanging out all still class related? I don't see them actually having a genuine good time with you and you're all friends and then they pull the rug out. I guess people without the ability to vet motive and personality could get taken in by cruel users like them, but most people are nothing like that. And I'm sure that happened but I doubt it's typical. Why haven't you learned? It's simply not common for people to do that to others.
>>214494767are you implying that you're not?
>>214500986There's decency and naivety. Plenty of opportunists out there who will walk all over you if you lay down for them. Are you meek? Do you have any assertion to your personality at all? There are dumb and shameless people who will follow you around if you buy them things and take them places and they can benefit. But do they call you up and seem genuinely interested in how you are? The more socializing you do the better you get at reading people. You'll toughen up or wither away.
>>214501027>It's simply not common for people to do that to others.Yes, it is. He was a friend of convenience.
>>214501027You think this is an isolated example? Dumbshit, this is just one example of a plethora that all have the same theme. People simply suck. There's nothing wrong with me; there is something identifiably wrong with nearly everyone else. Friends are just people that haven't stabbed me in the back yet. Your reply is basically one big cope of "that can't possibly be true; that can't possibly be the general pattern; that's not typical, that's not common". And I'm here to tell you that, in my life, YES IT FUCKING IS! OVER AND OVER AND OVER!
>>214501078If it's common to you it's your own fault. Most people learn from their mistakes and wouldn't get into these faux friendships over and over and over again to make it common. Sure, there are people out there who may take advantage, but they aren't the majority by any means. Some people just act as a magnet to those types. "Hey, there's an anon we can use up and throw out. Just look at his posture and shyness and eagerness to socialize!"Paranoids will see the world as rife with these people, but that kind of thing is rare; like you read about it online and wonder 'who are these people and how do they get themselves into these situations??'
>>214501077>>214501078See >>214501120. This was NOT an isolated example. This is the general pattern. This has been going on since day 1 of kindergarten. Enough of your fucking coping; people are demonstrably pure shit, and the only variability between them is how long it takes them to reveal that.
>>214501120Years and years ago. It's clearly your worst experience, but how often does it really happen? You got stuck in that mindset and so you see it everywhere now. It's called confirmation bias. The fact that you're saying YOU are perfectly fine and kind and normal and everyone else is the problem is the first clue that this is a you thing. Get some counseling. They can help you see the world differently.
>>214501133I am not eager to socialize. Any friends I make are basically situations I couldn't avoid. And then I eventually get shit on anyway. You are simply making up a bunch of coping bullshit because you can't accept the fact that most people are pure shit.
>>214501147Fine. Stay indoors and get deeper into this lifestyle until you lose it and become an active shooter or some shit. You're depressed and overly cynical.
>>214501147Anon, I backed you up. I know people are shit.
Taxi Driver?
>>214501156Oh, just shut the fuck up. You clearly think I'm just making this up. Seriously, fuck you. You know nothing; you're basically just sealioning me. And as I made it clear before...it happens EVERY FUCKING TIME. The only difference is how long it takes to happen.
>>214501192I read people just fine. They're assholes, waiting for me to let my guard down so they can shit all over me.>>214501176I'm not depressed; I'm pissed off. There is a world of difference.
>>214501168I won't accept that most people are pure shit because in my 45 years of life I have not experienced that. Sure, a few bad eggs now and then, but I can see them from a mile away. They are culled from the herd. I run with good people. We help each other out with our troubles and projects. We get together to talk about the state of the world and what's going on in our lives. You may never be invited into a circle like that if you go around scowling at everyone all distrustful and furtive and bitter. It might be too late because your mindset seems quite fixed at this point. You're rejecting anyone else's advice and observations. I can't imagine you being a guy with a firm handshake and a look in the eye and a smile. You already suspect whoever's hand you're "forced" into shaking and probably just want to get it over with. lol"Another cruel asshole just waiting to humiliate me." is what you're thinking and he can feel that. Ooof. I wish you well, dude.
>Got first place in a 5k for my age group >Don't feel like I "earned" it because it was a relatively small event How do I stop thinking like this?
>>214501221>you're just trolling now. You don't want help you just want to bitch and moan about your perceived mistreatment. It's all in your head asshole. Smile at people and see what happens.
>>214494538The R and the second S don't apply to most of 4chan.
>>214494829Most people still want sex and relationships. Accepting the lack of sex and relationships is not the same thing as not wanting it at all.
>>214501221>I read people just fine. They're assholes, waiting for me to let my guard down so they can shit all over me.I didnt say otherwise
>>214495003If affected young kids. You're a retard if you don't realize that. I was starting to get out of my comfort zone socially and then Covid ripped that away from me. It wasn't as hard for me as a normie, but i was pissed about it after a while.
>>214501271>>214501295Just shut the fuck up. This has been happening to me since day one of kindergarten. I didn't give in to blackpilled cynicism until my late 20s. Until then, I made a genuine effort to give people a chance. It never worked out, not fucking once. People are shitty & they shit on me. I don't care if that's not your experience; that is completely irrelevant. It's my experience, and I don't have the slightest idea why I've been singled out like this. You and your smug, dismissive arrogance can go straight to Hell. In all likelihood, you're assholes, and you don't like being called out. And now you, and everyone else in this thread, can see why people like me don't take advice from others. In conclusion...FUCK YOU.
>>214501271NTA but looking someone in the eye and smiling is very womanly behavior
>>214495175But it says lacks interest in sex and relationships. Lacking interest means you don't care. If you complain about being single, being a virgin, not having sex then you care about sex and relationships. Most anons care. Most people who claim they don't are just coping. What they really mean is they have accepted it, but they don't lack interest.
>>214500782You have to become ruthless when dealing with others or they’ll treat you like trash while pretending to be human. Humans are opportunistic cowards, instincts hardwire normalfags to manipulate, flatter, backstab, and submit to higher authority. It's a reflection of their meekness. The social order you engage in when interacting with normalfags doesn't reward the kindhearted and selfless, it's lesson I find myself relearning a lot.
>>214501446You basically just said people are assholes. Which is MY POINT.
>>214501509Do you enjoy horror movies?
>>214501540HELL NO!
>>214500674Shalom
>>2144944427 for 7. Fuck.
>>214494442That description is literally me, except for the sexual interest and experience.
>>214494664I did put myself out there. I once had 4 first dates on one Saturday/Sunday. I just didn’t enjoy any of them. >you just have mommy/daddy issues and aspergers bruhSchizoid apparently overlaps with autism so yeah kind of.
>>214501540No, I mostly like quirky comedy. Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, Grim Adventures Of Billy & Mandy, Mystery Science Theater 3000, Rick & Morty, Star vs. The Forces Of Evil, stuff like that. I have no desire to watch anything serious.>>214501579You're not me. Stop being an asshole.
This is basically everyone except the most turbo of normalfag and they are more animal than human

>>214499861You’ve listed two things, there are potentially an endless number of things that you’re doing suboptimally.
>>214502050Looks like the smug, dismissive assholes are back, with comments equally useless to the ones they already gave.
ITT: niggas confusing social awkwardness, social anxiety, rejection fears for schizoid PDschizoids wouldn't even browse these forums to begin with as they are stuck up in their own fantasy landsocial rejects come here as they have nowhere else to socialize
>>214501332Most people also actively pursue those things and would settle to have sex with any woman. Or man. Or tranny. I think if you’re not even trying at all to get a relationship or have friends and are just content with that then there is something wrong
>>214495175Deleuze and Guattari were right all along
I'm like this but I want sex and I enjoy exactly one relationship. For some reason I prefer to have just a single, solid compatriot. Although most normies can't be trusted therefore I don't really want even one on that basis (but the underlying desire is there)
>>214495125Normgroids act like you're weird for this but the average male in his 50's has no true friends in the childhood sense. That's actually exceedingly rare. People just use whatever criticism is expedient to otherize people based on prejudice
>>214501977Worst part of "AI" is how normgroids use it to confirm their biases and then act like they're right with zero critical thinking. It hallucinates a huge % of the time and will often get even simple factual statements wrong. You can get it to say the sky is red within a few sentences without much trouble... doesn't matter which model
>>214496766Same, I actually did have a therapist tell me I should get myself tested for it, but I didn't want to so I told her some shit about how Foucault says she's just imposing historically-contingent pathologization on me and I got out of therapy without her causing an issue. /lit/-maxxing is the ultimate way to evade psychiatry as a schizoid
>>214495347>I didn't write the DSM-5,Some kikes did. Then they decided being a tranny was normal, so who really gives a fuck what they think.

>>214494664You are a man
this is not a disorder, this is the natural response to realising fully what people are. I don't actively dislike people, I just tend to not like the territory that comes with constant social engagement. I don't mind hanging out with people once in a blue moon, having a few drinks, joking around etc. But beyond I don't like being intertwined with the social dynamics of endless power/ status games, having to constantly monitor what you say and how you behave in case you make some tiny faux pas, which people will instinctively judge you harshly on. And people ARE harsh judges. I've been gaslit enough about "people aren't really even judging you, it's all in your head" there is simply nothing enjoyable to me about being in a constant state of wondering where you stand with people. One day people can seemingly love hanging out with you, and the next it seems you're presence is nothing but an annoyance. People say one thing and then do another. Don stepped outside
>>214503692>People say one thing and then do another.Besides manipulative intent, poor memory can lead to that behavior.
>>214501378Oh vey, I've been expelled from 109 friend groups. That cannot have anything to do with me. Surely it's because they are all assholes.Never forget the kindergarden!
I have this. Was diagnosed in grippy socks and everything. Schizoids who haven't read up on the disorder (or otherwise known something was off about themselves and been desperately trying to fix it for years) will often encounter it online like this and balk at it. It's well known we tend to function mostly good enough and are very capable of rationalizing that our personality type is fine. Also a lot of people who don't have it just cannot wrap their heads around the way it is described as not wanting relationships. That's because it's just a shitty description and it's actually a lot more like the hedgehog's dilemma. If you have more questions, stop fucking reading 4chan and start slogging through Guntrip.Also stfu and post kino. There are very few movies which portray this well and even fewer where the schizoid heals realistically. The best I've seen was the The Station Agent starring Peter Dinklage.
>>214503815idk man maybe I've just had a fair deal of shitty manipulative people in my life. Take my Dad and his current wife. For years they'd be like>you know you're welcome to stay over here (their house) anytime you want>Then when I actually did asked to stay my Dad would leave me on read for a few days and they'd come back with some list of requirements to staying overor when a guy from my old friend group was like>dude come over tonight and have some drinks, we haven't seen you in ages it would be so good to catchup>decide "fuck it" and go and then when I turn up he barely says hi to me and acts like I just invited myself over
>>214494442I check yes for most of these, however...I am not indifferent to criticism but I am indifferent to praise
Anyone that uses the word "manipulative" unironically IS manipulative.I've only ever heard it used in a serious way by narcissists and bpd women.
>>214504004people say things they don't really mean to be polite. the words themselves are what matter not the content. its like when there is one bit of candy left in the jar, you offer the candy to someone else and they are supposed to decline. the offer is not real but just a courtesy. a thing you doit took me a while to understand that
>>214504065I understand that. But I have zero care for putting true psychic energy into relationships that are built on nothing but being polite. Polite is for random strangers on the street. If something isn't real it means nothing to me.
>>214494442donnie darko
>>214504040I was manipulated for almost 20 years by an evil malignant narcissist step mother before I even realised I was being manipulated. Manipulative people are real. And calling them out doesn't make you one.
>>214494442Only SIR and FE apply to me
>>214504153the FIRES rise, brother
>>214494664these things aren't mutually exclusive
So now that I know I’m a schizoid, what now? Looks like there’s little research and meds and therapy don’t work.
if you >tfw gosling you aren't schizoid
Anyone else find at work that people turn against you really quickly because you just want to mind your own business and not have dumb pointless conversations? I become the weirdo guy extremely quickly despite not really talking to people unless necessary.
>>214495673It’s worth asking if you actually really want friends, or if you just think you need them because you’re insecure. I discovered that I didn’t really want friends. Do you want friends anon? Do you really care about normalfags? Do you really want to connect with them?
>>214504472I have those conversations though.
>>214504402Time to start noticing
>>214504402If you want to change it you don't have it
>>214504582I feel like I'm forced to have them but it's all fake and I don't really care, so on days when I'm really not in the mood people think there's something wrong with me. In fact sometimes I deliberately be annoying to make people not want to talk to me again.
>>214504472Happened to me too, the craziest part is that at the job I was at you could go home when your work was done so I absolutely did not want to waste time with small talk, people are retarded.
>>214504472I work nights which means my conversation is highly limited . Most of the night I get to spend alone.Its not for everyone but if you can manage to learn to stay up all night every night the world is a very peaceful place. silent, dark, and empty
>>214504739I'm lucky that I work in an office but I only have 2 others in the room with me. I don't actually work with them, so don't feel under pressure to be liked or whatever. Most people I can just avoid, my team are all remote so I only have to talk to them in calls for an hour a week. It's very easy to balance.Yet still I know people are hostile against me when they think I can't hear. It's weird because I don't force my way into people's bubbles at all like most other people try and do to me, yet I'm the asshole.
>>214504789People hate it when you don't reveal your secrets and vulnerabilities.
>>214504040How else are you supposed to describe people with this behavior?
>>214504789>I know people are hostile against me when they think I can't hear.People build cohesion in their group by finding someone who is not part of the group and picking on themnothing unifies as much as the outside enemy
>>214503121at dawn and sunset
>>214494664If you’re a tranny, I don’t careIf you’re a foid, I hope to Christ you kill yourself
>>214504843So I'm like the batman?
>>214495673why would you?
you're not a schizoid, you're just a loser.
>>214494664uhhhhhh schizosisters? our response?
>>214504589I mean normalfag lives seem objectively better. And wanting better just seems natural.
>>214505078no bro you're like trannies, sorry
>>214504615Sounds better than for me. For me those conversations can be painful.
>>214505105This pic goes hard, mind if I save it?
