    Hmm I line up with a lot of that aside from “exclusive internal fantasy world”

    I also don’t have difficult making friendships I just also am very bad about keeping those going unless we’re in proximity (either online or in-person).

    I like praise but generally end up thinking I don’t really deserve it and criticism can bite me hard so… Idk maybe not?

    Yeah with how much it overlaps with the autism spectrum it’s hard to tell but I feel I fall more on that line the SzPD, interesting though.

      Autism, schizoid and Complex PTSD have a lot of overlap. Growing up undiagnosed autistic in an unsupportive environment can lead to CPTSD. Schizoid can also be thought of as a flavour of CPTSD that occurs if you’re predisposed via genetics. I think there’s still so much to learn. None by themself explain me, but all three together do. CPTSD is often co-occurring in late diagnosed autists.
