How To Deal With A Person With Schizoid Personality?
I am in love with a complicated man. I think he is too but I gave him a Luscher color test and with that and another book , he seems to be a Schizoid personality. If I show him a predictable behavior, will it help, when he is afraid he ll be hurt by those that loved him in the past. So, I can t show any power over him, and he seems very easily hurt. What advise have you. . .
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
People with schizoid personality disorder don't desire or enjoy close relationships, even with family, and are often seen as loners. They may be emotionally cold and detached.
Psychotherapy and medication, such as antidepressants or mood stabilizers, can help. You must consult a psychiatrist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards,
Dr. K. V. Anand
