Why is being a schizoid considered bad by normalfags? There is

>>38618376
Because Normies don't understand how people can enjoy their own company and trying to distract yourself. they actually need a monkey to dance in front of them in order to be entertained. a day alone for them is like the worst day ever.

>>38618544

Yeah thats why a lot of people cant handle the NEET life.

>>38618376
I want to socialize but suspect major embarassment based on past experience and an objective look at the mirror while talking. I tend to talk more to people I trust.

>>38618630
>I tend to talk more to people I trust
Isn't everyone like this?

>>38618565
This is me >>38618565

and I enjoyed NEET isolation while the parentbux lasted.

Normalfags completely break down when they find themselves isolated, they can't sit still for 5 minutes without babbling to someone about some inane bullshit. Because of this, they are unable to understand that some people genuinely want to be left alone, and so become personally offended when such a person shows a lack of interest in speaking with them.

>There is literally nothing wrong in not wanting to socialize
Schizoid here. There actually are things wrong with it. Wanting to socialise is a trait found in almost every human being. On one hand it feels like a superpower not needing to rely on anyone else for anything emotional, on the other it feels like I'm missing out on one of the main aspects of being a human being.

I don't want friends or a real social group, but I want to want to have friends or a social group to actually be able to function like a normal human being, like everyone else.

so u overthink it

>>38619319
When you're alone almost 24/7 thinking is all you do.

I don't think I'm schizoid , however I am a loner and I have never met (irl) a person that was somuch not interested in people as me.

anyway.

has anyone of you guys ever tried drugs ?

I am socially involed somewhat but all my friends are weirdos.
we usually do coke on weekends and It makes social events and sociality so much more bearable.
even enjoyable.

when I say we do coke I don't mean getting super geeked out ,but just slightly high

I even though about getting some stuff for necessary social situations.

>>38619969

>unironically doing cocaine

>>38620064

I'm pretty cool with doing cocain ironically aswell as long as I get some coke in me.

At worst they see you as less than them simply because you don't really value social interaction or bonds. Girls especially determine their value based on how they are seen by others, if they don't have a group of people who gives them attention they tend to become very distressed because that's part of how they determine their own value. They will also tend to assume this is the same for everyone and so they will assume you are low on the social hierarchy or 'a loser' when you simply don't subscribe to the same parameters to determine your own value.

As a schizoid I can't react 'in the moment' for shit, I process everything through thought or not at all if overwhelmed, the emotional component is disconnected from the moment and processed
in an internal 'world' that is disconnected from the moment, emotions are not connected 'live' basically and people think you don't care about them because they can't get you to react when they expect a spontaneous emotional reaction there just isn't one.

because we are social animals by nature and it's not normal, nor healthy, to want virtually no social contact with anyone. Most schizoids aren't even so severe that they actually manage not to have contact with anyone; they just do so sparingly, or without any genuine enthusiasm for the activity.

have you ever visited a forum of schizoids? the self-aware ones are miserable and wish they understood why they're so fucked up/why they can't find it within themselves to change, while the arrogant ones are laughably childish and so disconnected from who they think they are vs. how they actually come across in real life that it's downright scary.

"secret" schizoids also end up hurting most people they get close to with their indifference, meaning most people will want nothing to do with them. This can be a serious handicap if you lead the kind of lifestyle that requires virtually any form of social life Ie: you have a family, a high-paying career, a highly respected job title, etc.

also, the depersonalization/fantasy element of the disorder can make it impossible for these people to recognize that their perception of the world and themselves is dangerously skewed. Any sort of "break" in that mode of unreality can lead to severe depression/anxiety, or even psychosis.

>>38621632
This sound accurate and very familiar.
Given the choice though, would you rather be miserable yourself or embrace that indifference for what it is and by doing so, not making it your own problem and misery.

There is no winning for schizoids and no sense in being miserable about it either.
Might as well see the upside in it and not agonize over what you are not.

>while the arrogant ones are laughably childish and so disconnected from who they think they are vs. how they actually come across in real life that it's downright scary.

I get this danger of it, I've been guilty of it myself, without a feedback loop through social interaction there is only your own perceptions which you can twist into whatever grandiose or paranoid fantasy you may be drawn to and there is nothing to slow it down, no reference, conformation or denial, the detached inner world becomes the primary way through which everything is interpreted.

It's very hard to just 'let go' of this inner world after years of relying on it, very hard to just let go of it as being of no importance to anyone but yourself. (and even then)

Humans are social creatures. They see us as less because we are different.

Isn't schizoid just a sophisticated way to call non-autistic weirdo loners?

are there any drugs that help with SPD? I become a lot more social when im drunk, just want to know if there's anything else

>ITT: How many naturalistic fallacies can we post in one thread

Was I misdiagnosed? I don't even know anymore

These arent naturalist fantasies, its natural for all people to eat also.

>Find comfort in staying nice and cozy at home

>posers and hippies say im not "living it"

Real life is gross anyway, nothing wrong with wanting to be comfy

Millions of years of evolution as pack animals. Being physically weak and mostly defenseless humans survived by forming packs and hunting/defending as a group. It is natural to see a person who doesn't wish to socialize as being at best an evolutionary failure not worthy of time, at worst a danger to the rest of the herd that functions well as a unit. Of course society has changed and we now have lots of systems and structures in place that allow us to contribute to the herd aka society without actually making much face to face contact, but our brains and instincts haven't evolved as quickly as society itself has in the past few hundred years.

>muh respect, muh high paying carreer

pure ego, also yes, humans in nature are social animals, we are not in nature anymore however our small family units are alienating and not a valid/complete substitute to the original tribal unit, same with the work place which is far more alienating, no matter how high paying it might be

>>38621632
>you have a family, a high-paying career, a highly respected job title, etc.

Literally nobody with a high end career enjoys being social, thats why they make a lot of money to buy a nice house and stay with their family.

Normies only need money for sustenance and drugs, everything else they share

>>38624591
Because spending a lot of time with your family is closer to the original tribal unit/community, while the workplace is an extremely alienating place

Normies are scared of what they don't understand.

>>38623176
I've thought about becoming a vagabond, but it'd probably be hell. The way people get through it is pure human interaction, like the old days.

>>38624762
>Normies are scared of what they don't understand.
Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.

here's the trick:

All normies are antisocial too, they just arent stupid enough to tell people that.

Refusing to outright talk to people means interrupting whatever they're trying to play with you, and for that they get angry.

Just put on a smile and pretend like every other person

the roots are often from some form of maltreatment as a child and is heavily correlated with a decrease in quality of life
still it's probably the most effective defense mechanism for people who were pushed that far
