    I totally agree with you about "schizoid depression".Its like you dont belong in this kind of world, this kind of society, people, rules, .... "whats the point of all this sh**?"

    Love your channel . Please do more with advice for female schizoids. You are very intelligent and easy to understand. I look at you like a female "Schizoid Angst", but more relatable for me.

    Oh thanks ^_^ did you have any particular questions? I'm not actually sure how schizoid might be different for males vs females, but now that you've mentioned it, I'll have a think 🤔 I suppose with females being more expected to socialise, we could have some different pressures similar to females with autism. Hmm!

    As I commented on one of your previous videos, not diagnosed SzPD but I do suspect it. I engaged heavily in fantasy since childhood because the real world (maybe I should say human world, human affairs, everyday life because I do like nature, animals and science) is so boring!!! I never understood the point or it. Unfortunately this didn't change and I don't even want to work. Will see if therapy helps. Regarding "schizoid depression" I find it so interesting. I went to a psychiatrist 7 yrs ago and had symptoms of depression caused by excessive rumination about "what is wrong with me, why am I an alien in this world, why am I here it sucks anyway and there is no point to it". I did made me feel pain and sadness. This "episode" never ended. The symptoms just morphed into severe avolition, anhedonia, apathy and a complete lack of positive emotion. No ADs helped and I tried like 9 of them. Btw this is also why Im watching this video on avolition now. I was always apathetic, indifferent, unmotivated by the boring things mentioned above. But I did have fairly rich emotional world inside my fantasies. Not sure if this is typical for schizoids. My current state is weird to describe. Feels like a severe burnout caused by trying to live in this stupid world. The symptoms are not going away. Also "I think that the people who function in this shit world are crazy". YES YES and YES!

    Many schizoids do engage heavily in fantasy (and introspection). It was actually listed in the ICD-10 criteria before they shoved all personality disorders under one barely useable category. I too used to be more like that, but pulled away after realising how much worse it made the real world feel by comparison. Now I'm trying to find a better balance.

    How can I tell if I’m just extremely introverted vs if I’m schizoid? I looked into it and I relate a lot to the stuff but my mom says I’m just extremely introverted who doesn’t go out because I’m insecure and afraid of the world 🥲
