Question: What is the difference between schizoid and schizotypal personality disorder.?
Answers:
Schizoid personality disorder (SPD) and schizotypal personality disorder have in common a general social withdrawal, but schizotypal personality disorder is more closely related to schizophrenia. People with this disorder have ideas of reference, meaning that they often believe that others are talking about them when they see two people whispering. People with SPD, on the other hand, are not concerned about the conversations of others because of their general social detachment. also, schizotypal personality disorder is characterized by greater eccentricity in thinking than SPD. They may have unusual perceptual experiences, such as thinking they can read the minds of others or foretell the future.
