ICD-Code F60.1: Schizoid personality disorder
You have a personality disorder that is characterized by an almost complete lack of interest in close friendships or partnerships.
Everyone has personal characteristics that are deeply rooted. The personality involves certain patterns: how one things, feels and behaves. With a personality disorder, these patterns differ greatly from the majority of the population. This can be very stressful and lead to difficulties in daily life. It may also cause problems at work or in social relationships.
If you have little to no interest in social contact, you normally spend a lot of time alone. You typically spend most of your time in your own inner world and are reluctant to express feelings. You may have almost no reaction to either praise or criticism from others. Your intuitive understanding of social rules may also be limited.

- V: Tentative diagnosis
