Wow! I didn't know there was a DU loners group.

29. My schizoid diagnosis came about 12 years ago when my daughter was tested

for a variety of things because she had been diagnosed with mental health problems. She wanted me to be with her when she received the results from the psychologist. When he told her that she had schizoid tendencies, which I had never heard of before other than the King Crimson song, so I asked what it meant. When the psychologist explain, my daughter and I looked at each other wide eyed and she was thinking, "this sounds like Dad!" and I'm thinking, "this sounds like ME!" I had no idea that I had anything with an actual name.
Also, I've found many of those online schizoid tests to simply be an exaggerated caricature of what a schizoid really is like.
