This has been on my mind for weeks and I talked to my therapist about it today and told my girlfriend about it too so now it's time for me to update the gay people in my phone: I may have schizotypal personality disorder
#this is like the equivalent of telling the bees to me
#rambling
#like ive been thinking about ever since i learned that autism shares a lot of similarities with schizophrenia and looked into that
#and then learned about negative/cognitive symptoms and realized i related a lot to them
#and then i learned more about schizotypal personality disorder and it was fuckin scary how much i related to it
#what with the magical thinking and the severe social anxiety that doesnt go away when i get to know someone
#and the ideas of reference and the eccentricity and the communication difficulties and the strange thought patterns
#and then i specifically learned about avolition as a negative symptom which describes the exact thing thats ruining my life rn
#and. i was scared to talk to my therapist about it bc i was worried it could be used against me somehow
#but it was good to talk it out with her and get some additional perspective on whats going on in my brain
#and if it means i could maybe possibly work on fixing the avolition and the social anxiety (my two biggest issues for years)
#then it would be 100% worth it tbh. and its also kind of helpful to have some sort of framework to understand whats happening in my brain
#funnily enough when i told my girlfriend (who was previously mis?diagnosed with schizophrenia and considering autism)
#about it she related a lot too. so i guess we'll see how that goes
#its. crazy how much of an overlap there is between schizospec orders and autism
#i feel like i might should write up a post going into detail about different schizospec disorders to raise awareness
#bc like. it is so much more than just hallucinations and delusions
#in fact its not even required to have both of those for any schizospec disorder. some only require one and others dont require either
#there is so much to the schizophrenic spectrum that i was unaware of and I'm sure that's probably true of other people too
