Just FYI "schizoid personality +/- disorder" has absolutely nothing to do with (the spectrum of) schizophrenia, they're about different things on different systems on different axes etc.

And yeah, psychologist REALLY suck at naming things!

And one of the reason to avoid ever discussing about "schizoid personality" with people who aren't trained psychologists since they're 90% likely to think you're talking about the wrong thing :|

There is a schizoid spectrum, which what people call "Schizophrenia" falls on. They do suck at naming things, that's a pretty fair point.

"schizoid" is just another word for "person with avoidant personality disorder"
