Auditory hallucinations.

Mostly I'll hallucinate someone saying something negative about me as soon as I turn away from them. "What a creep." "Asshole." That kind of thing.

It's particularly bad if I'm uncomfortable.

I like being around people but most social situations will either bore me and I opt out or I decipher a social group as unhealthy/broken in some way.

Most individuals I simply cannot connect with unless it's on a purely objective plane e.g. creative, goal oriented, or consultation.

If I met you and told you I've Schizoid traits (I'm quite the loner and happy that way), would that make you more comfortable for a friendship?

I'm also functional and all that, just a loner.

I'd worry about sexual intentions.
You'd have to be a creative in some way to sustain a friendship.

It's complicated. Schizoid disorders are to be enjoyed until 30. After that, loneliness can become crippling. But I really miss the enjoyment of my lonely activities.

I think I'm maybe schizotypal too.
I can befriend people, but it really feels like I'm interacting with them through a glass wall or from another planet.
Even the closest person to me who's been with me since my early childhood doesn't seem to understand my thoughts at all.

I suppose there isn't really a question in here, but there's no one else I can burden with my sentiments

Accept it as true and if later down the road you don't feel that way then you can change your mind. Work with what you have and be flexible with yourself. Some days will be worse than others.

Skizoid personalities are emotionally suppressed and avoid social situations and often do not feel a need to interact. That glass wall it's there but they don't care who's on the other side.

Schizotypal are more paranoid, have hallucinations, and often believe they're living in a giant conspiracy. But they often feel like they need to socialize.

Both these disorders combined = schizophrenia
