This is my closest demon. Not for Kaos, but for the man behind him. The Mayoclinic.org says this about schizotypal personality disorder. When I post the finished product on my site I will give only my experiences with this definition.
"People with schizotypal personality disorder are often described as odd or eccentric and usually have few, if any, close relationships. They generally don't understand how relationships form or the impact of their behavior on others. They may also misinterpret others' motivations and behaviors and develop significant distrust of others.
These problems may lead to severe anxiety and a tendency to avoid social situations, as the person with schizotypal personality disorder tends to hold peculiar beliefs and may have difficulty with responding appropriately to social cues.
Schizotypal personality disorder typically is diagnosed in early adulthood and is likely to endure across the lifespan, though treatment, such as medications and therapy, can improve symptoms."
If you have this condition... No matter your age, there is hope for you. I am 37 or 38 I forget which, but I have a spouse, a few very good friendships, some acquaintances. It took years of doing, but I got there. If I can, so can you. Of this I swear.
