 No.185955[Last 50 Posts]

after recently discovering that this disorder existed and just so happened to exactly describe the hell I've been living in. I began to wonder if any other wizards are suffering from this as well.

furthermore, if any of you do suffer from this I want to know how you deal with it?

>inb4 hurr schizo tread hahaha.


just for the record (and anyone who does not know), schizoid personality disorder is nothing like schizophrenia, no voices, no hallucinations, nothing like that.
the disorder causes a person to withdraw from life via the usage of maladaptive daydreaming, normally leaving them as a husk of a person.

 No.185956

supposedly I have schizotypal personality according to my doctor

 No.185957

>>185955
according to doctors I am schizoid and another personality disorder that people would claim cannot coexist with schizoid. Being schizoid is more than 'maladaptive daydreaming'. "how do you deal with it", if you are schizoid you already are dealing with it. I have had therapy for other disorders and on request of professionals I have even engaged socially with people to test if it would change my disposition and it never has.

Schizoid summed up in my experience is the inability to bond. Family are strangers. Everyone is a stranger. I wish I was not this way but at least I am not one of those typical loner males who thirst for female company and suffer greatly. The hell is having hardly any wordly desires at all and being incredibly bored with life because it has nothing you desire. I deal with reality by withdrawing from others and doing things by myself.

To me, this reads like a normie psychologist fucking hates loner wizzies and wants to throw 5150s at them. What really worries the fuck out of me is that last bullet point:
>idiosyncratic moral or political beliefs
With that in the mix, now it's reminding me of the Soviet diagnosis of "sluggish schizophrenia" or the diagnosis of "female hysteria" (that the Kennedy family used to prescribe a fucking lobotomy for Rosemary Kennedy, iirc).

Schizo- means split, detached or separated. Schizoids are named such because of being detached from the outside world, being all of the physical reality or at least society.
The term Schizophrenia, on the other hand, comes from "splitting of the mind".
Schizoids have the negative symptoms of schizophrenia (negative not meaning bad here, but lacking something most people have) but normally not the positive ones (positive meaning having weird symptoms that most people don't have, and definitely NOT something good).
The negative symptoms of schizophrenia are things like asociality, apathy, anhedonia, all things schizoids generally have. The positive ones like hearing voices, hallucinations and disordered thinking are not commonly seen on schizoids. If they happen they might be related to some stress induced psychotic episode, it's not something that will normally happen unless it's caused by some comorbid issue.

>>185957
They way I think of it is that dealing with people is work. It's very carefully managing what you say and how you act, carefully interpreting how the other person is reacting just to prevent some negative reaction from the interlocutor, like getting angry and aggressive, or highly inquisitive, or just talking for hours.
All of this is a lot of work for very little if any reward, most of the time when talking with people the main thing I'm trying to do is to get them to stop talking and go away as soon as possible. I think that SPD develops as a reaction to a generally hostile social environment (specially family during childhood), it just gets ingrained on the schizoid that interacting with other people is an unpleasant and potentially dangerous activity, one that must be avoided as much as possible.

>>185968
A lot of psychology is complete bullshit, but at least some personality disorders are very much real.

well I think psychiatry is pretty open that is definitions are functional, pragmatic, instrumentalist, with the normie life with a job and relationships as the norm, and any deviations from it by definition as disorders

Does any wiz know of a jurisdiction where it is possible to get "schizoidbux", similar to how autismbux and neetbux are a thing in some places?
Apparently it leads to difficulties with finding work, so it is definitely not one of those mental illnesses that do not have any substantial effect on your ability to make money.

 No.186050

>>186043
Autismbux is a generic term, it does not mean everyone who gets it is necessarily autistic. Officially what matters is not so much the diagnosis or infirmity itself but the consequences on your life, or so they say. I guess it depends on your psychiatrist's ability to make a case for your inability to function normally.

>Does any wiz know of a jurisdiction where it is possible to get "schizoidbux",
I seriously doubt that just a schizoid PD would qualify anyone for bux as it is just an aversion to doing things others put up with better and not an inability to function. Like others said it is pretty much worthless asking people online what will qualify you without stating your country but generally you need to have complex mental health issues that do reduce your ability to function at all.

 No.186305

I was clinically diagnosed as having schizoid personality disorder by a psychiatrist -it's how I get my NEETbuxx
That said I think it's a complete meme diagnosis (like most mental illnesses tbh). It's just the psycho-pathologization of perfectly rational behaviour as a reaction to my life. There's nothing wrong with my brain, or anything like that. I'm just your regular maladaptive image board autist through a combination of upbringing, life events, etc.
>>186043

It depends heavily on the country of course, but where I'm from there's a heavy social/welfare state, so all I had to prove was that I can't make minimum wage on my own which gives me a special status, and then just apply for welfare.

Hey anon, I was like you 10 years ago. I can give you a short summary of how it could be solved. Note that this is only based on how I solved parts of it and I am not guaranteeing it will work for you. I am also not insisting you fix yourself and not judging people who want to remain schizoid - as you will read in this post, I think this process is very personal, including the decision to change (or not).

For background, I had pretty typical schizoid symptoms 10 years ago. Only particular novelty was that I think I got on the schizoid spectrum due to weird genetics (family line contains lots of introverts/low sex drive people) and not due to child abuse, as happens to most schzoids.

In my case the key to the solution was to figure out a way to get out of the anhedonia/apathy spectrum of schizoid symptoms - after all if you do not have the motivation to do anything, you do not have enough drive to do something massive like solve an insidious and nigh uncurable mental disorder.

So to do this, I spent some time (~3 years) doing some intense daydreaming, determining what I was actually missing out on/could acquire if I broke out of my schizoid condition. In my case I eventually realized I did want to get out or at least modify my disorder to be less restricting, without necessarily "denouncing" the disorder as completely undesirable (it has some good traits, like autonomy/independence).

I took those realizations and spent another year forging it together into a strong obsession/drive. Then using this obsession, I spent another 1-2 years gathering up weird ideas from every strange source, including religions/occult/political ideologies to forge together a kind of "personal ideology", which would give form to my obsession/drive, making it more articulate and workable in practical situations.

Then after this, I entered the current phase (4 years and ongoing) where I use my "personal ideology" to reforge my life, hammering out every part of it that I dislike (involving mainly anhedonia/general weakness/helplesness). This takes the forms of weekly, daily and monthly battles of will against my unrefined instincts. I still have control over the process and am not lost to the obsession - there's part of the schizoid form I retain (such as keeping social aspect of life to as low a level as I can) because I do not find it particularly objectionable.

Overall I did make massive changes and fixed several of the traits, especially with regard to anhedonia. I don't think I can be classified as schizoid any more. While the process was long, it was worthwhile - it has felt like a more interesting and prolonged version of the daydreams I used to have - kind of like an extended daydream but parts of it actually happen, which obviously makes it better. It's the kind of process where going through the process is worthwhile whether or not you reach the perfect end state, at least for me.

Now if you want to do this the key is to look deep inside yourself and find together all the reasons you would want to break out of your condition. In other words, the key is to build a dream future/path that would justify the hassle of struggling against your own nature for multiple years (it will be a pretty surreal mindfuck adventure, most likely). What it might be is completely personal, is completely unlikely to seem "grand" enough when you first find it (in fact these desires are likely very weak) and will likely also be very autistic and niche - nothing a normie or even most wizards would understand. But that's the point - getting out of the schizoid position has to be personal and meaningful for you. The little embers of dreams you find have to have the potential to be strong fuel for you after you kindle them for a few years.

Although I have spent a long time struggling against my schizoid limitations, I basically agree. The weird thing about normie psychiatrists is that they seem to genuinely have no understanding why anyone would choose to be schizoid. Whereas to me, it was completely obvious back when I was schizoid. Even now, that I have fought against the more debilitating symptoms of schizoidy, I still retain understanding as to why it is attractive - normie society is kind of like a stinky, sticky maelstrom and avoiding involvement in it makes 100% intuitive sense to someone with my introverted and unpersonable nature.

Personal contact with normies has not really changed my mind about it all that much. Based on observation, almost all intimate relationships are pretty obviously self-defeating and non-beneficial, including to the normies who insist you absolutely have to do it or else you are not "normal" or can't really "love life" or whatever.

If schizoidy does have a weakness though, it's the anhedonia. That's the only part of the schizoid personality type (or disorder, if you wanna call it that) that really is debilitating/disease-like.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_defeat

Someone give me a solid argument that schizoid tendencies aren't manifestations of long-terms sustained social defeat over long periods of time starting in adolescence. We are on wizchan here after all, I can't imagine many people here have been socially successful in their lives if they aren't able to convince a succubus to have sex with them. There's countless examples of other animals having "schizoid" tendencies as the kikes would say after being socially defeated constantly.

 No.186339

Dunno, makes no sense to me. Your theory seems just another put-down disguised as a theory, sort of the same like how the normie psychologists call every person that's substantially different "disordered", whether they're legit dangerous (like psychos and BPD) or just harmless eccentrics (schizoid).

IMO, it has much more to do with just viewing the social world as a toxic and malign entity that is boring, filled with obnoxious and tiresome stereotypically idiotic normie behaviors - tribal posturing, group-think, middle school social politics etc. It is unrewarding even if you do win, so in general, schizoids avoid it.

From what Ive read it is variable what makes people settle into the schizoid state, where they start to view the social world as being irredeemable shit to be avoided. For some severe child abuse or neglect seems to reveal the bad side of society to them early, and they never give it a chance again when theyre older.

For others, they are just born solitary and contemptuous of the social unit due to genetics. The emotional payoff for winning at social interactions is never there, whereas all the drawbacks/annoyances that it causes still are. Little surprise, that also leads to schizoidy because dealing with society for such people is like constantly stepping on a nail for no reward at all. Eventually you just avoid the nail.

In animals and humans social defeat has been shown to cause schizoid tendencies, animals withdraw from socializing because they believe there's no reward. They've been conditioned consistently to believe this way until it becomes second nature. You said it makes no sense but then go on to discuss why people become schizoid in virtually the same way. Your two main reasons why people become schizoid are that they're abused/neglected (socially defeated consistently in other words by their peers and loved ones) OR they're born different due to genetics which seems more like a cop out. There's a genetic component I'm sure but humans are molded by experiences and are never static, people say genetics as the biggest cop out for anything. "Oh sorry, I'm depressed, it's my genes. I'm anxious, it's my genes. I'm fat, it's my genes. I just can't help it, it's my genes." if we are such deterministic beings and it's all set in stone, why blame society at all? It's not society or others, it's your genes after all, isn't it?

>>186340
Plenty of people are dissatisfied with life and how they've been mistreated and talk about it all the time, it's hard to go anywhere on the internet without someone whining incessantly about how awful their life is. I'm sure someone in the past has shown you genuine empathy for your problems, did it fix your problems? Of course not. Life isn't going to get catered to you and it isn't fair, it never was. It's a pain reading comments like this on an imageboard that's supposed to be full of 30+ year old men, I believe any wizanon old enough has went through the cycle enough times to realize the futility, though I do suspect there's plenty of teenagers and early 20s here now.

Dunno, why are you so invested in shitting on schizoids? Your theory is pretty obviously based on wanting to demean schizoids as being "losers" and then gaslight everyone into agreeing with you. Seems like pretty greasy creep behavior to me, I doubt you're discussing this with any good intention and are probably here to shit on people you hold in contempt for kicks (while pretending to be a "fellow wizzie").

And no pal, your theory is dumb. Literally your first sentence is stupid - animals have schizoid personality disorder? Where do you come up with this shit? If you are going to try to sound scientific at least acquaint yourself with the basics of psychology. If you did, you would also for instance know that genetics literally affects everything. I know your little contempt-filled hate theory kind of falls on thin legs if you admit basic facts like genetics, but hey that's too bad - I doubt you're a wizzie anyway, so what do I care about your distress.

Most normies don't know anything or care about outcasts. Most normie psychologists also. That leaves just the small minority of psychologists who are schizoid personality experts, who only really know what schizoidy looks like, they don't have the insider experience (how it really feels like). Because of that they don't know which of the symptoms really hurt schizoids and which are just personality quirks.

It's kind of unfair, but in practice society leaves it up to us in the end to understand this and solve these problems.

It is even moreso the case with schizoidy, because from what I've read, therapists seem to only be able to "cure" problems for softer/receptive personality types (i.e. depressives, avoidants, sedated borderlines) who can form intimate bonds with the psychologist, but not more guarded "armored" personality types, including schizoids. Not going to speak for anyone else here, but back when I was full-blown schizoid, the chances of forming a bond with some therapist for me was likely around 0%, even if I could have found one that had any clue what he was doing. No other help was possible, so I had to help myself.



As for buddhists, IMO it is possible that some experts have that idea. However, most normies are just ignorant and don't care - they dont know anything about buddhism or anhedonia.

I am basically dying of catatonic schizophrenia, I can barely think clearly, remember anything, learn, speak. I look and act like a freak, I can't work socialize or go out in public. I can't remember 99% of my life.

My pupils are constantly dilated, I can't coordinate my movements well, I bump into walls because my depth perception and motor skills are so bad. I have even experienced mild hallucinations, mostly visual and tactile, only had full auditory hallucinations once when smoking weed. Its literally a living purgatory. I have to kill myself soon before I lose the willpower, the impoverishment of my will and thinking has become nearly complete.

If you are non psychotic, consider yourself lucky. If you do have schizoid personality, from what I've read you wouldn't care much one way or the other about it since a characteristic of the disorder is indifference towards the opinions of others and life in general. What is described by anons ITT sounds more like AVPD, Asperger's, possibly schizotypal if your social anxiety is that extreme and coupled with learning issues, odd beliefs (conspiracies, paranormal, aliens, government nonsense etc.), odd appearance. I've read its essentially an attention deficit, those who are schizotypal can't keep up in social situations because they have an extreme attention span deficit.

Anyhow, I am already dead, the person I am is gone, I'm a zombie. Count yourself lucky if you are non psychotic, your problems aren't so bad I promise.

Went to a psychiatrist once because I thought I had been depressed for years and while I distrust pills I figured it couldn't get any worse. He concluded that I wasn't depressed but instead exhibited elements of schizoid personality disorder and recommended I see a shrink which I refused. Still don't know for sure to this age but it would explain my complete lack of ambition, drive but also lack of genuine suicidal ideation. I feel like a robot with fake emotions, the only genuine thing I feel is anxiety and even that's relatively rare nowadays.

Schizoaffective-disorder dude reporting in. The symptoms came when I was 23, got diagnosed when I was 24 & I’m now 27 ; I don’t have a job right now but I used to work small retail jobs years ago before my condition got worse. Now all I do is stay in the house because I have a delusion that somebody would be watching me leave the house only to pick me off with a sniper rifle or just random people out wanting to kill me for whatever reason so I just skate on my skateboard alone in a parking lot not bothering anyone until I get tired and go home since I don’t like to bother people & I don’t want people to bother me. I’ve done a lot of dumb shit since I’ve got this diagnosis but I’m grateful I’m still breathing with the fam that I have left or people who still care that are in my life. I realize that I am going to die alone but this is all spiritual so I’m not really tripping… I just sit back and observe humanity at this point meditating, skating, drawing art, and practicing Magick to keep me busy. One day I’ll be forced to work & I don’t know what type of job that’ll be but I’m shooting to work from home for the rest of my life. Like that one dude said ITT, consider yourself lucky if you don’t have psychosis.. It’s a shitshow.

I don't know if I'm schizoid, since I didn't get diagnosed by psychologists since personally I don't believe them. (I recognize that there may be good psychologists, like those who write books on this subject, but they are not the ones available)

From what I see of your experiences that you write on web pages, I see that there are many people with the same problem. You have good opinions and in those opinions there are truths.
You have to organize and better articulate what you want to say and express your real reasons why you are like this.

the schizo of today has in their hands truths about relationships today, how empty and meaningless modern western society is, the only thing that sustains this society besides frivolous consumerism, are the romantic and superficial relationships that they have the people of this society, the schizo being immune to this has the ability to see behind the veil.

For one to be someone in this society one has to live in a fantasy, in the fantasy that my happiness is outside of oneself, and it has to be achieved through an economic transaction or through a relationship with another person.
the difference between SJWs (for example) and you is that in addition to being financed, they are organized and have some clear main ideas.
The schizos, being outside the emotional hypnotism that society and advertising impose on them, have great power in their hands. don't feel guilty about why you are like that, schizos can see society and human relationships as they are, without distortion, and they are right, they are not worth it.
Why do schizos get along with animals and not humans? there is love within the schizo, what happens is that in this type of society they realized that it is not worth it. when there is love but there is no society, people to love, schizo is created.

the true social change is achieved by the schizo if they organize themselves, no social group today has the realistic vision of things from a disinterested point of view like the schizo.

Schizoid personality disorder is interesting because its not often seen as a downside by the people who have it. Psychiatric illness is defined by how an illness effects your ability to engage in work and relationships. But schizoids want to be alone and don't view it as a pathology. I've heard for this reason that the disorder might be under represented since if no one is coming forwards for 'treatment' its hard to say what the prevalence might be.

If no one is seeking treatment, few are being diagnosed, and 'impairment' doesn't exist for the client to be considered as having a disorder. So what's more likely is a psychiatrist might note that you have 'schizoid tendencies' rather than diagnosing you with a personality disorder. Even if you probably met the criteria for it. I think personality disorders are a speciality, too, so you would also have to find psychiatrists who were familiar with them. Actual schizoids would be very rare.

 No.191031

Spot on, anon. I was diagnosed with SPD about half a year ago and you've reminded me of a previous psychiatrist who noted "schizoid tendencies" years beforehand.

I didn't look into it much then, and even with the diagnosis itself I'm not too bothered. When you speak to these people especially in a clinical setting, it's as if they're rapid-firing memorized questions and responses; they don't seem to care about looking deeper so much as diagnosing ASAP and prescribing or adjusting meds. At least that was my experience; it made me question what exactly drives the psychiatric field and if one should fixate on their diagnosis too much.

As for meds they've been largely ineffective or detrimental (I'd suggest anyone interested to look into the chemistry behind these). Antipsychotics zombify and usually come with "secondary" meds which are given to suppress side-effects such as akathisia. SSRIs feel like placebo in my case. Benzos have possibly got me hooked for life, and even though I was overusing/abusing, the addictive properties of this stuff are severely under-reported.

I'd advise people not to trust anyone blindly, and if you meet with a therapist don't hesitate to voice your concerns. One way or another they're paid to provide you a service — you are their client.

i think a lot of people glossed over this, but looking into further literature on the topic, being "exquisitely sensitive" seems to be touted as one of the main characteristics of a schizoid. in the wikipedia page this is mentioned like twice so its easy to miss, but consistently you will see researchers starting off their descriptions of SPD by trying to emphasize how sensitive schizoids are. i feel like i can fully identify with SPD like many others here but i dont at all see myself being overly sensitive. i wonder do any of you guys feel that youre really sensitive? or maybe the doctors are just wrong in their descriptions of SPD?

I conditioned to suppress showing any positive emotion because they were always waiting to pounce at the slightest crack of a smile to knock me down. I think they relish in how easy I was.

One memory in particular hit me hard. As a teen I was at a theme park. On a ride I got caught in the moment outwardly expressing my enjoyment. Some douche mockingly mirrored the way I was in the moment. I can still remember to this day my face immediately just dropped blank, shoulders sunk, and I sat silently until the ride was over. I put my head down and shuffled away quickly. Whole day ruined. Whole life since then it still nags me.

Probably most of us. You do know these disorders are political diagnoses? If you have no one and nothing, and you've been shunned by society as most of us have, you're going to withdraw and become listless because there really isn't much point to life. We're always political animals and we can only deny it for so long. Humanity is just taking the mask off and showing what they always were. The idea that we were ever going to have a world where we could get along was always a myth, barely believed. If you've been paying attention, the real plan has been clear for a long time, and in the 1990s they were already coming out with grand plans to eliminate people who no longer served any function in society. There was no longer a need for soldiers or labor in the way they were needed during the 20th century, and the leaders of the world never wanted us in their society from the start. We were only pretending we had a place for a time, because it was possible then.

No, I have to disagree. Receding from society does not make you schizoid. The principle schizoid trait is the lack of desire for personal relationships. I rarely, if ever, see this type of behavior.

It's always "I tried to find friends/a girlfriend/a place in society but I was shunned so I gave up" When in my case I never desired it at all.

 No.192616

>>192603
Normal people don't actually desire personal relationships in the way we're supposed to believe is "normal". In modern society we are fed very maladaptive ideas of what friendship and marriage entailed. Historically, marriage had nothing to do with love or the psychological games people play, and had everything to do with money, business, social standing. That's really how it remains even now, but there is a whole elaborate ritual where we are not allowed to speak openly about how relationships of that sort are actually arranged (hint, it's underground orgies for the "liberated" types). As for friendships, the social forms of the past century are designed specifically to prohibit friendships and all the ways people used to share a common cause. The totalitarian societies of the 20th century were all premised on the State and its institutions intervening in the most minute affairs, and putting a stopper in any organic structure the people might have made for themselves, democratic or otherwise. That's why you have cops and lawyers and social workers and psychologists and a whole system of experts telling you literally everything you can do. It's why you have ridiculous levels of lawfare and institutions that are all designed to kill you. In that environment, people who are worn out, cast out of society, or just useless to the society, become "schizoid", or "bipolar", or various other categories which basically amount to "worthless human being". Ask any psychologist what they actually think, and they will tell you they think the mental defectives really are just worthless people and need to be removed from society. They have multiple strategies on how to remove those people. It used to be they just said "retarded" or "insane", and everything was tied into some conception of intelligence that was given outsized importance. Without an actual theory of psychology at the basic level, it was always going to be politicized.

The symptoms of being "schizoid" have a lot to do with someone who is listless, who likely is treated like shit from an early age, who is typically male, who is often put through remedial education in some way or another and told from birth they are worthless, who is told by the whole society that they should have been aborted. If that is the world they live in, it is likely that they would become fatigued and their brains would literally rot from being starved out of meaningful belonging. Add to that a society which poisons people and seeks to drive people insane with increasingly absurd rules for the most basic social participation and outrageous double-standards, and then consider that the people in favored positions announce they want to depopulate the world and get rid of people who are no longer useful for them. It's designed to destroy people, and the people have been destroyed over the past several decades. I didn't even get into the experiment with mass drugging, the social experiments in the schools, or the shit they've done with our food and water to drive down quality. Then people are subjected to "healthcare" which is entirely driven by eugenicist goals and openly throws away the unwanted parts of the populace. It's like night and day how differently I am treated at the hospital than a normal. I've seen it enough. They won't do a damn thing for me unless I'm ready to lawyer and basically diagnose myself.

How can anyone tear themselves apart trying to work against a world that clearly doesn't want them?

It's funny how much of these "diagnostics" are pure projection of other peoples' bullshit. I don't "live in my own world". I live in the actual world and have been rejected from the proper, political society, as have a lot of other people. How can I associate with people who immediately reject me on sight because I look funny? I've tried and it never ends well. Yet, I'm talking to you good people, and I've managed to find a way to interface with the world to the extent I am allowed to. It was never going to be much, but whose fault is that exactly? I don't expect other people to ever let me join them for much of anything. It really does become lonely here, and despite their stupid beliefs, I do enjoy the company of others and having dialogue. I might be one of the few who actually likes humans in this world, which probably makes me sicker. Most people only really like their buddies who will enable their bullshit, and the moment that is no longer possible, your "friends" will just throw you to the wolves. That's how they do it in the military culture, for sure. They'd be stupid if they didn't do it that way and maintained some stupid sentimentality.

If you dealt with what these things actually were neurologically, or what the actual behavior and thought process was, it would be far less useful politically. If you acknowledged this as what it was, you'd have to confront some ugly truths about humanity and the pretenses we make about this society. Everyone is a potential "schizoid" by these definitions. All it requires is for someone to be fingered and broken successfully, and then the pattern can be become learned. Some may be more breakable than others, some may have a stutter or some neurological defect that makes them vulnerable to attack, but it is in the end a political decision to decide if someone is defective and unfit for society. I've seen so many obviously deranged people held up as paragons of sanity. It's why we're told Elon Musk is great when he's obviously autismo and a gigantic jackass.

"Free will" exists, unless you're ascribing to nature a general will that is conscious in the way we are, which it doesn't actually possess. If you're speaking of a strictly materialistic, scientific explanation, individual actors are as free as they can be until some external force presses against them. There's no "force of nature" compelling universal behaviors. There are, of course, other people who are actors like yourself, in a struggle for life and dominance. That's politics, and until recently, we thought of humans as political animals. Anyway, enough of that… it's a childish retard topic because we live under eugenics, and eugenics makes these stupid non-arguments and fake controversies all the time to sell its essentially Satanic world-system.

It will never, ever be better for him, and he shouldn't contribute to this monstrosity of a society. I wish I didn't have to say this, and that there was something for us, but it really is that bad. I live on purely out of spite and the hope that this nightmare could be changed in some small way for the others, if they can avoid the screening process. If they are like me, I feel obligated to try and hide us from this beast, or at least tell them that it really wasn't going to be any different and they shouldn't be surprised at what humans are.

do you idiots know how rare it is to actually find someone who fits the diagnostics of this disorder? I worked at the front desk of a psychiatric office for 5 years and never encountered a single person who came in with or was given that diagnosis. The one person I do know, who was given a diagnosis of "mild" schizoid-like traits, basically raised himself from birth after his mother died at age 2 and he was passed over to an old demented grandmother with basically zero contribution from any other family member. He also has a social life and full-time job, has had girlfriends and even bitches chasing after him, he just exists as a husk of a human being running on elaborate autopilot with almost no real relationships outside of work friends and hobby handouts. Meeting him initially you can almost mistake him for just being an introvert but long term examination will quickly reveal the rotten empty core carefully covered up by the potemkin's village of work related smalltalk and acceptable participation in normie hobbies.

If so, then I would just say that a diagnosis can be both rare amongst 'humanity' as a whole as you put it, and relatively common within specific populations. Looking at it this way, I don't see it as unreasonable that it could be a somewhat common thing for the members of this site—one exclusively for male virgins who (ostensibly) eschew romantic relationships, social relationships, and may even be NEET etc.

I don't think schizoid personality disorder is even a disorder tbh. It's just a person who enjoys their own company and feels satisfied with what they have. I can understand why it's thought of as a 'disorder' though. In psychology: literally every experiment related to the deprivation of affection or isolated lead to the subject becoming depressed. But I argue that this isn't necessarily the case with the schizoid. They aren't 'normal' in the sense that they don't require interpersonal contact to be happy. But nevertheless, the field can't help but compare them to regular people who do need such contact.

I feel like a better comparison would be autism spectrum disorder (ASD.) People with ASD can have all kinds of functioning. They can become obsessed with a special interest or certain peculiar details. These aspects of autism can be an edge in certain fields that require that level of focus. Tech is a very good example. How many engineers have autism / are on the autism spectrum? If two engineers have kids the chances of their off-spring having autism go up astronomically. But I digress: there is increasingly a view that such people are 'neurodivergent' or different. They don't always just have negative symptoms. Schizoids are the same, IMO. Can you imagine how well a schizoid would do on a remote research post (with no humans) or even in space where they will never feel lonely? But NASA doesn't want anyone who even remotely aren't normalfags. So I doubt we'll ever see schizoid astronauts (who would fugging dominate.)

Yes, that was my initial point. I see what you are saying as well, and would even agree to a certain extent, but that isn't ultimately the point. You can argue schizoid is the lowest level of developmental failure, worst than even the most nonfunctional narcs and bpd freaks.
There are so many more likely diagnostic frameworks like the above mentioned NPD, quiet BPD and even basic ass autism that creates the same kind of social outcomes you outlined. The amount of emotional investment/butthurt on the subject from so many posters is the biggest red flag IMO, that schizoid is not applicable for them

>>195648
more recent research has indicated many schizoids do in suffer from chronic existential loneliness, but lack the emotional infrastructure to either consciously feel, be aware of, or express this fact, and working towards developing that framework in any way would constitute a life threatening
peril to their highly primitive and undeveloped sense of self, so they stay in their cozy zone where they feel safe.

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/247919672_Schizoid_personality_disorder_linked_to_unbearable_and_inescapable_loneliness

You can def argue that a lack of desire to change their situation is an indication that there is no disorder. However, it's a fact that this set of behaviors and life choices inhibits a person's ability to function and/or thrive over their lifetime in various ways (even if they manage to achieve the basic societal demands of interpersonal independence, employment, and even superficial interest in others) and is associated with net negative outcomes over a lifetime, so is it, in fact a disorder, unless we are doing that "my autism is a superpower" bullshit now

There is also no gold standard that this criteria cannot overlap with other, more typically hated personality disorder criteria. My one in the wild encounter with a actual diagnosed schizoid also displayed classic signs of vulnerable/butthurt narcissism, fishing for pity, ect

This is basically how I was like when I was 18 - 23. I never thought about social relationships but whenever I somehow ended up around people I felt rattled. It was like being forced to confront how normal people gained substantial benefit from their relations. Yet I could not form a human connection in the same way as them. Even if a person 'liked' me I felt no sense of connection towards them. Not in a weird sociopathic way - but something was missing.

In social situations I would sit there and think about how all my relationships were basically just caricatures of the role I was expected to play. I had family members who 'loved me' but never felt love. I had friends who wanted to spend time with me but always felt alone. If I spent time with anyone I'd would actually only make me feel more lonely. I would sit and think about how what I was experiencing wasn't the same as anyone else was experiencing.

I had no desire to connect with other people but being around them made me feel like I was doing something wrong. Everywhere I looked I would see people –together–, happy, and smiling. I came to resent the fact that I was feeling like such a freak for not wanting that. I just wanted to be myself. To do something alone and not be thought of as some fucking weirdo. As an adult you can do whatever you want and people won't bother you. But this was not really possible as a young person unless you want to attract negative attention.

Checking in.

Got diagnosed at 15. At this time my parents couldn't understand why I didn't show any display of affection towards family members or friends. I was not resenting then and there was nothing wrong. Precisely, I felt nothing for them. I didn't wish them harm but I didn't want to be around them either. Being skyizioid is basically seeing people as objects. You may like some for their usefulness, aesthetics or simply out of habit, but you do not get attached to them in a emotional way.

I don't have trouble making friends but keeping them is almost impossible because I do not feel the need for interaction. I never text, never initiate contact and feel extremely disturbed if they call or invite me somewhere when I didn't plan for it. I also don't care about their problems and emotions and can't relate when they try to get sympathy. The most difficult aspect of being schizoid is not being alone or not feeling anything, it is seeing people around you being hurt by what you are and not understanding why.

It was especially hard with my mom. Sometimes she cried when I told her I didn't care about anyone (which I shouldn't have done, but I was young…) and she sees that I respect and like her out of gratitude and habit, but I don't feel anything more.

To me, this a blessing. It negates the effects of loneliness to a great extent and keeps me from being too depressed by wizardhood. I have a theory that SPD is in fact a coping mechanism for the brain for lonely people. I've read that it can come from negative reinforcement during childhood if social interactions are perceived as undesirable for various reasons (abuse, neglect, bullying, betrayal…). I don't really fit this profile but I find it interesting.

Actual psychiatric patient here, I got a diagnosed personality disorder and I know many patients with them.

Doctors do not diagnose personality disorders in minors, and SchizoidPD is one of the rarest personality disorders. I call bullshit on everyone saying "I got diagnosed as a teen", it's impossible to diagnose a personality disorder in a minor, a doctor needs to analyze if your disruptive behavior and symptoms have been permanent and pervasive for MANY years and that usually happens around 25 in the case of men.

Personality disorders are not personality traits, they're serious psychiatric diagnoses with permanent biological symptoms and irreparable cognitive deficiencies. An actual Schizoid would be so impaired he wouldn't even browse forums like this.

Also, Schizotypical and Schizoid are not remotely similar to Schizophrenia. I.E. You can be Schizotypical or Schizoid without suffering from psychotic symptoms, on the other hand all Schizophrenics struggle with psychotic symptoms.

I am pretty sure my schizoid tendencies reflected my natural distaste for institutionalization. Why are little kids forced into school where they are berated constantly with lies? Why do kids have to grow up with mothers who don't act like mothers anymore. With fathers who are also demoralized? I remember as a kid also, I dressed the way that I thought was normal. I wasn't about to start adopting the "negro gangster" culture that was artificially induced. It is unnatural. Kind of a stream of consciousness post but I am trying to put a lot of ideas down at once. I remember I only found a small friend group that I liked when I found kids that also liked older music and films like I did. I hated everything that one had to enjoy to be normal. I wasn't going to wear a flat brimmed hat or a studded belt sorry.

It also doesn't help not being athletic or good looking lol. But I digress. This world is toxic, and it's purposeful at least in the west. We are living in a decadent and dying society. Schizoid behavior is probably the best course of action. Does any anon know just how worthless even our money is now? It's a fucking joke. The good news is that it was all destroyed before we were born.

i think a schizoid mentality is not a disease but rather a natural inclination of the heart to withdraw in the safety of loneliness, when the individual is obliged to stay in a hostile place without any means of escaping.

i began to develop these tendencies when I was forced to go to school and to bear the bullying every day for 8 hours.
of course, not going to school was never an option. so i had to resolve to endure such humiliation.

as i entrenched myself more and more into imaginary worlds, probably as a coping mechanism, i became gradually detached from reality.

not a in a schizophrenic sense, i know that reality is in fact … real and that my dreams are nothing but fleeting fantasies. but it's comforting, like a fresh breeze that fondles your face. it's rejuvenating.

It's not a rational response to be like this but it is the only response that was really possible. In the early days of the takeover, the new elite bragged about how they were going to drive men senile by 30 and use them up as soon as possible. Schizophrenic-type behavior is usually a sign of brain decay or extreme stress response, but because that isn't a politically expedient explanation, it was turned into this mindset that the Bad People had, and if they falter and start to crack, it's because they were Bad People and society should weed them out. If you dealt with these things as what they concretely are, it means that solutions are possible and that the institutions would be at fault - and particularly those who hold them, and use them. IDK if you're in the cursed Zoomer set but from everything I've heard it is unlivable, and it is everything I expected from what they were doing when I was growing up.

I don't like embracing any mental illness / political insanity, because none of this is helpful, but it must be clear that none of them want this to ever change. If you are ever actually healed in any way let alone rehabilitated, the psychologist did not do their actual job. The whole setup of psychology is so adversarial because it's intended to weed out weaklings and keep people in line with the predatory system. The idea that it was anything else was an unusual lie spawned during neoliberalism. When someone tells you that such an obviously adversarial system is there to "help" you, they hate you and have cast you out of humanity. That is how they really see you, and how they must always see you. There can be no redemption and there is no reason we should waste energy expecting it. If they allow us any redemption, their entire way of life and all of these institutions can no longer function. If the meek ever inherit the world, they will no longer be meek when they take it after choking the life out of those who did this to them, and the terror would be something nearly impossible to imagine to ensure that this doesn't happen again. It must be clear that if these people who rule ever sense they will lose, they must resort to unlimited terror. That's why they built the nukes and this narrative that they can destroy the world 100 times over. They're not for any war with each other. They're a threat to the civilians who were forced at gunpoint into cities to find work and become de facto slaves of one sort or another. The ruling faction made their position clear a long time ago. We have lived through the aftermath of that, due to lack of any competing idea or ability to put it into action, and the utter defeat of those who would see the need for this nightmare to end. It isn't even that society is decaying. This is the design, and it was inherent in the ideas that made modernity possible. Past ideas like religion were a precursor to modernity in one way or another, rather than an oppositional force as crude ideological narratives claim. It was clear to philosophers in the late 19th century that their grand task was to ensure that nothing new whatsoever was possible, and therefore "The End of History" would be declared by many of them. That's where we have this modern theory of ideology, which did not take hold overnight but insinuated itself during the 20th century and ate away at any resistance the people had to it.

I'm diagnosed with autism and I was a full blown schizoid until I met my father in my tween years and got close to him. I literally ran around the playground each day at school by myself and imagined myself in fantasy worlds, I didn't have any friends, I just alternated between school and video games. My fantasies were maladaptive day-dream tier. I'd imagine being whisked away into a magical world where I was a hero and had to slay the evil monsters. Then I stopped that shit, suppressed it and tried to be a normalfag for a good 15 years.

I regressed into that state again during the covid lockdowns. I honestly think I am genuinely happier in that schizoid state because there's less ups and downs, but it's like being a hollow person and you do feel there's something missing deep down.

I was debating whether I truly had some kind of quirk until you mentioned the daydreaming shit. Used to spend hours in my garden jumping about in my own fantasy world and also by myself in the playground. Only later did I make friends and I forgot that I used to do this until now that I have no friends again. I've been and am being forced by family etc. to do things such as get a driving licence. Yet I cannot cope and often neglect things to the point where they often actively ruin my life. I have no interest in this. A constant wait for something thats not there, that'll never come. I spend my days, when not addicted to quick form dopamine via imageboards and shows/movies, reading books and manga. I feel like I would like to die and pass to a better place.

If you overstimulate yourself with intense video games and porn, you'll feel "bored" which really just means that your body isn't rewarding you for doing the things that you do often.
It's better to do "mundane"(something being not as stimulating is not bad, in fact it is great, it helps with maintaining pleasure and making sure you dont over/understimulate yourself) things to avoid taking things too far and overstimulating yourself to the point of apathy.
At that point, you can figure out how you want to do things
1 do exciting things rarely so that you get joy out of it and go back to normal
2 do things that are "mundane" and let things suprise you, things like talking to people, diving deep into subjects, things that are unpredictable.
Once you get to a point where you can sit down and just read a book or play simple games you'll understand how much better it feels

Not in this lifetime, bro. If you have internet connection you can get anything you want pretty much. What you say is only true if you have a very narrow mind that is only interested in a specific genre of entertainment. If you are a gentleman with a wide variety of interests (like a wiz should be) then you won't burn out ever.

I'm nearing my 30s and the lists just keep piling, there is so many things I'm interested in I have 10 new movies for every movie I watch and same for other forms of entertainment. I don't think I will be able to finish everything I want in my lifetime.

I don't disagree with everything but one of the biggest problems of people here if you ask me is that they aren't stimulated enough, not that they are overstimulated.

"Intense" porn and entertainment are great ways to give yourself adrenaline rushes. I mean what's the alternative? Sit in a dark room and sleep all day or be bored? Nah. Better to over-engage in stuff than to live some anemic, dull, ghost-like, no fun ""life"".

It's highly unlikely all people ITT are schizoids.

Personality disorders are not horoscope shit, they're debilitating chronic psychiatric disorders with specific diagnosis criteria. And SchizoidPD is extremely rare, and I highly doubt that the few schizoids in the world are all gathered in wizchan. It's more likely that people here have Depression, GAD, Avoidant Personality Disorder, ADHD or autism.

Personality disorders diagnosed on their own are rare, comorbidities are way more common, if you already got a formal diagnosis of something else and you suspect you have schizoidPD then it's actually more likely and plausible you have it. If I was any of you, I'd be more concerned on gaining functionality, if you're an actual schizoid you have a low quality of life and poor functionality more than likely.

Honestly, it's ambiguous that SPD should even constitute a disorder, when it's diagnosis criteria doesn't necessitate perse any personal distress. It correlates with "lesser" life outcomes, but then, the idea that those life outcomes are good are judged on a non-schizoid metric, and moreover, it's less so the ""disorders"" fault moreso than it is the fault of social and societal bias against schizoids.

>You have to eat every day too

this is a bad analogy. you're comparing an essential function to a new thing that fries people's brains and
makes them depressed and suicidal,
my point is that if you do intense shit everyday it won't feel like anything so there is no point.
you'll feel like shit because nothing can compare, so you shouldn't do it. sure it isn't coke but it damn
sure can cause addiction and loss of pleasure

it's better to just do more mundane things(not to point of it being painful) so it can better match
other thing you do throughout the day
>All of them can be considered entertainment and all of them can be intense.

It isn't "society", but the state and interests that claimed the whole of society, humanity, and the world for themselves. People are allowed to criticize society as a material phenomenon, to say that society is going bad or that the institutions don't work. You are not allowed to criticize "society", which is to say, the institutions that perpetuate rule and the interests of those who actually control us. Any time a critique of society hits upon a core conviction of the institutions that are killing us, it must be viciously attacked, and this habituates people to believing that there is no life outside of "society". You can imagine a human outside of material, real society very easily, and humans in material reality are disconnected from the vast majority of what happens in society. This is not simply a declaration of some mystical truth, but it is a condition of material reality the subject in society can sense easily. We are told over and over again that we are alien to each other and have nothing in common, and in a lot of ways it was true even before society was controlled. Humans are nasty to each other. The objective of those who rule is to exacerbate this and bring it to its maximal level of antagonism, and by doing so, it prepares the mass of people for disposal. Intensifying the general fear and alienation of people allows for social acceptance and proof to be distributed by the rulers to the subjects to affect behavioral change in minute ways, so that different qualities can be produced from the people. By making us as miserable as possible, it is possible to sort through a given mass of people distinct grades of social status, civic worth, and this is the only way such a sorting can be implemented so long as the liberal view of society is accepted. Liberals can argue that such a sorting is morally wrong or counterproductive, and in the end political decisions are not driven by ideology or a set of imperatives fixed in stone, but by the interests of the stakeholders in society. The immiseration of people is not an accident but has been very deliberate and carried out with considerable knowledge of social mechanisms. The rulers are allowed to criticize the workings of society, in order to better understand how they can oppress us, but it is not actually admissible to consider that the oppressed can fight back. Any such resistance must be intellectually neutralized before it can manifest into something real, and any real resistance must be broken apart aggressively once it is detected.

For various reasons that are too complex to get into here, this is a state of affairs inherent to beliefs held in human society for a very long time, and the counter-argument of a cooperative society where everyone gets along never received a fair hearing. At best, cooperative societies have been considered for a limited group, and they inevitably come to the conclusion that oligarchy is the only possible form of human government. This is not so much fixed in nature, but in the assumptions that were accepted when humans formed states and societies in the first place, and questioning those assumptions can only happen out of necessity. The people of the world, for obvious reasons, have detested being ruled by people who clearly want everyone outside of the inner group to suffer as much as possible, but relief from suffering is only vaguely hinted at by religion or philosophy. That the suffering is entirely the result of those who chose to rule is well known, but you're not allowed to simply declare that it can be stopped. The pressing to make others suffered is presumed to have a moral authority that is beyond questioning, no matter what the consequences of a culture of shame may be. Some cultures may mitigate this, while others glorify shaming and make it into an elaborate ritual, but it will always be the most important disciplinary function in society, unless humans were to change constitutionally in ways that would be difficult to implement, and that no stakeholder has an interest in allowing.

 No.200475

I'm not talking about some anarchofaggot idea that a single cent of tax is spiritually evil. I'm saying the whole society from top to bottom is claimed by private interests who want you dead. The anarcho-capitalist faggotry is a way to intellectually stunt people and obfuscate what neoliberalism actually was, which is just more of the same fascism we've suffered for the past century. You can have a society without tax as such that utterly controls you. The rich do not like being taxed, and have never genuinely paid a cent of tax in their entire existence. The state has existed to serve the rich, and if the rich pay any money into the state, it is on a voluntary basis, entirely towards their ends. That's why you have the foundations and trusts that were set up in the 20th century. By "donating" to the "charitable foundation", the rich write off all of their tax obligations. Not only does this mean they pay nothing for their state except what they themselves want to pay for, but they get around all of the anti-trust regulations that were sort of in effect. The anti-trust laws were repurposed to ensure that the rich were the only ones permitted to do this with impunity, and the rich form an oligarchy that does whatever it wants and does not have to regard any law whatsoever. You can protest taxes all you like, because the rich own this country and anything worthwhile in it. If they need to, they'll just extract in rent from everyone else as "tax" and circumvent the state altogether. They like using the state to do this because the state has a role in regulating mass populations, but the rich have what amounts to a state and society in parallel to the one we think is the "real world". The rich and connected do not suffer the way we do. They do not. They live in an entirely different world, and can select at will who is allowed in and who is not. With the flip of a switch, they can write off your debts and say you're valid again, and the money itself does not matter (and not for goldbuggery reasons the rubes believe). The whole rigamarole where you are made to enter debt slavery is entirely a choice of the rich, to make the rest of us scramble in the struggle for life. None of the money is real, and the productive economy and products are allocated by what amounts to a socialist plan. It just so happens that the plan is to get rid of most of us, and make us suffer for the scraps we are allowed, which are always in limited supply. The limited supply is deliberate precisely because it creates the pretext to deny to the people the useful things they wanted in the first place. They will allow you to buy prolefeed and turn into a bloated lardass, and they will force you to pay for your psychiatric "treatment" that places you in the group selected to die. I don't know how you can argue that this is about the money or "freedom" in this anarchofaggot sense when you're up against all the institutions and things you see every single day. 1984 wasn't a warning and if you thought it was, you failed the intelligence test. It was an announcement of what was just created and that you had better get with the program or else. Sucks for us, because we were always intended to lose.

Sounds like you don't know any self control or restraint at all. You can binge on anything that gives you pleasure. You can get binge eat, binge drink alcohol/coffee, binge smoke, etc etc etc. You can also get addicted to everything that feels remotely good. Is that any reason to avoid things that feel good or give us pleasure? I don't think so.

There is nothing special about masturbating to pornography to make us treat it with extra suspicion or awareness.
> you're comparing an essential function to a new thing that fries people's brains and

Sexuality is an essential function too, just like eating. You can masturbate or have sex but you will live out your sexuality in some way most likely unless you are low-T or have hormone problems. Masturbation isn't a new thing and being a peeping tom isn't either, because porn is ultimately that. You are pleasing yourself by watching other people have sex. It's not a new thing at all.

If you feel bad after masturbation and watching porn then it has to do with your principles and values that make you feel like you are committing some sin or mistake by giving yourself pleasure.

there becomes less of reason to do these things, why spend so much time learning about the fictional worlds? it all is just trying to pull your heart strings or entertain you
eventaually you learn about how these things are made and they become less interesting
I too have and can add tons of things to my lists but there isn't really a reason to engage with any of it unless it has some real value like teaching me something. there are tons of things that can make me feel surface level pleasure and that makes these things feel less special.
I'm starting to really only enjoy things if I feel like I can learn about something from watching it, things like culture, history, or people

It doesn't matter what you believe, experience shows us that sexuality is a basic need. Otherwise you people wouldn't struggle so much with your nofap and wouldn't relapse every couple of weeks/months. You also wouldn't need to avoid any kind of stimulating content, be it even just slightly suggesting.

If you can go nofap for actually longer period of times then it isn't because of your iron willpower or discipline but because your body is different from the average male's. But nofap doesn't even solve anything concrete. You will still get erections and will be aroused whenever you encounter an attractive female or a picture or movie or video that has attractive females in it. In fact you will just entertain even more thoughts about sexuality because you want to avoid it so much.

>seeing thousands of succubi do bizarre things you'll never see in person in a million years is not something to be suspicious of?
No? You are watching videos of people who have sex. Maybe it's just me but I honestly don't get this autism about porn being some dangerous or satanic thing some people think it is. It's the same as watching people doing anything else. Why you so scared of it? Again, I can only think of complexes, traumas, guilt-problems when it comes to anti-porn attitude. You feel bad because you think you shouldn't watch it, ugh, why again? Mommy said not to watch it? Or the local priest? Or some other authority figure in your life?

>this cannot remotely compare to modern porn

It's what porn is. You are the voyeur, the peeping tom. It's just easier and not-so-dangerous.
>this involved people who were deviants
Deviants by whose standards? If you are a male virgin you are considered a deviant regardless of anything you do, btw.
>it seems like you are just trying to justify watching porn
What needs to be justified? Okay, I seriously had to laugh at this. Nobody can provide me with any logical or convincing argument regarding why we should avoid porn. It's just "I feel bad after it" tier complexes and hypocrite moral preaching about what should be considered normal or healthy sexual behavior. It's disgusting how many wizards fall for such lies.
Your views have everything to do with it, I assure you. If you were raised to believe porn is bad for X reason then it's natural that you feel bad after masturbating to porn.

>>200592
Your problem is that you have too high expectations. Luckily I don't. I'm just grateful for anything that can occupy my attention for a short while. If I enjoy it, that's a huge bonus too. Even if I think something is trash I watch it or read it anyway. I like to experience new genres, like to discover stuff I didn't know about. Again, what's the alternative? Meditating alone in a dark room all day?
If you want higher quality works then they are out there too. Dozens of them. It's pretty arrogant to believe that you with your 20 or 30 something years watched and read everything good out there. You didn't.

So yes, there is unlimited entertainment out there. Very diverse and special entertainment. You don't have to watch the same 10 movies all the time or the same 3 anime, you know.

the goalposts, it's impossible with you because you can never be wrong in your head.
Do I have to sit here and explain to you, a supposedly 30 or so year old male that many people who watch porn get into fucked up shit and it fucks with them? Ex. BDSM, rape, gore, underage, gay, trans, etc.
and Do I have to explain to you what that does to a person and how 'peeping toms' pale in comparison to these things?
You mention that you want evidence of the negative effects of porn when it's obvious you haven't done any research
yourself. I say that being a peeping Tom is usually something deviants would do in the past and you say that virgin
men are CONSIDERED deviants.. Seriously? like how ridiculous can you get. Those are two completely different things.
Do I also have to explain how being a young male who is a virgin in the modern day is not the same as a sexual
deviant who peeps on succubi undressing or people having vanilla sex? Do I have to explain what a deviant is, and how
it is vastly different from say, a religious celibate male or a male who decided they just didn't want to engage
with sex? If so, you can count me out, I prefer to argue with people who have basic common sense and give other

is "fucked up shit". It's just ironic how a guy on a website for weirdos like us tries to whiteknight for normal tastes and trends. Saying that these things are socially unacceptable doesn't fly around these parts of the internet, you'll have to come up with an actual argument.

Oh and if you had no idea, then sorry but male virgins like us are considered to be the biggest deviants in all the world.

All your arguments are just basically "well it is wrong!" But when I ask why you can't deliver anything besides referring to "common sense". If you care about common sense so much then why are you even here?
I'll ask you one more time. Why is porn wrong? Why is masturbating in your room watching porn something harmful? Many people have this idealized and retarded fantasy about sexuality, that you can only live out your sexuality via hetero sex in missionary position for the sake of producing more children, in front of a fireplace and with roses and champagne and with some cheap romantic music playing in the background. That's just a childish fantasy of some succubus. How is that better in any way when you compare it with masturbating to rape porn for example? It isn't better in any way. You are allowing the normals to tell you what is right and wrong and it is pathetic.

Rapists I can respect the most out of all normalshits. They don't jump around as succubi tell them to like 90% of normal males do. They take what they want and don't care about how the succ feels or what objections she has. Females only have power as long as they are protected from rape, otherwise they become what they were destined to be, the playthings of men.

Pedophilia was normal for the majority of human history and it still is considered normal in some societies nowadays. It was only when christians and feminists started to cry how inhumane it was that it began to be seen as the gravest of crimes a man can commit.

Trans people are failed males anyways so it is good for them to operate themselves into wymen. Eunuchs and hermaphrodites were always part of human history too. I feel like most conservatives and puritans nowadays have no idea at all about what history was like for the most part.

It influences people to do thngs they otherwise wouldn't and hold opinions they wouldn't had they not been exposed to it.

People that do this tend to complain about things being boring and having 'mental ilnesses' due to their genetics not realizing the problem is their mindset.

Why should anyone here do what you say? If you don't want to watch porn or masturbate that's your problem, what do we care? Not everyone here is a failed normalshit who wants to make it out there in the normalfag world. Some of us don't want to learn anything ""productive"" or ""useful"", we don't want to get mad skills at something, we have our very own hobbies and we are already doing what we want, which includes watching porn and masturbation.

This is why I didn't bother arguing with you faggots.
My point is that doing things that overstimulate is the cause of your anhedonia.
I'm not trying to sell you anything, retard. The conversation took this route because you and or some other idiot can't understand that doing intense activities can cause you to feel 'bored', down, 'depressed', or 'anhedonic' afterwards. Not just immediately, it can last for a long time.
Just think about what we have access to now, the ease of overwhelming pleasure and the increasing rates of suicide and 'depression'. Yes, it has other reasons than that of course, but ironically it is normal due to people lacking self control and people giving in to their animalistic nature and not being able being satisfied with a normal life.

If your only experience with porn is shitty vanilla porn on the front page of Pornhub, you really have no business talking about it as if you are some expert on it.
I've done plenty of research and testing these things myself.
Don't try to pretend you aren't obsessed with succubi, that's why you watch porn, you want connection or sex from them. Why else would you watch it?
You think someone not liking porn due to it's effects are apart of some nonexistent no-fap movement. You are the epitome of someone who is branwashed by porn and can't live without it, it's no different than a drug for you. That is why you are unhappy, insecure and need to constantly posion the well to maintain your sanity.

and here you are, trying to accuse me of trying to tell you to acquire work skills, ignoring the fact that I said hobbies along with skills. If you had common sense you'd realize I'm not talking about learning how to be a wageslave, but skills that align with hobbies, or things that are useful like knowing how to use a computer, how to make various things, things related to art, etc.
>which includes watching porn and masturbation.
Im not an authority on hobbies or anything but porn, if it's a hobby is a terrible one. Masturbation just plainly isn't a hobby, it's something your body wants you to do occasionally and it's not complex enough. Porn is nothing like film or animation, sure there is soom porn that tries to emulate it, but at the end of the day, especially American porn, is just smashing genitalia together, there is no depth to it, no complexity. You don't know the people behind the cameras or the directors or the history of it, you don't care about the actors and actresses the same way you do with film. You aren't creating it yourself, you don't have a genuine interest in it. Seeing sex elicits a natural sexual response in you as it thinks you are preparing to have sex and you mimic having sex with a female but with yourself. You don't enjoy actually it, your body does and when it feels like you've had enough, that's it, you won't 'enjoy' it anymore because the only reason you did it was because your body made you. If you can't even get this, I doubt you have any real hobbies. Is eating candy a hobby to you as well?

I used to think that I'm schizoid and even got the official diagnosis once but now I know that I just lack social skills because I isolated myself since I never acquired confidence and self-esteem to be around people which always lead to embarrassing situations when I was forced to do so.

"Schizoid" is bullshit just like any other psychological disorder, you're really just socially retarded and/or lack confidence and self-awareness, it's just like autism which also doesn't exist and just boils down to these basic things.

not being social in a highly socialized species is a disease.
unfortunately this disease can't be easily treated since you can't have a state mandated wife nor can you force other people to enjoy your company.

we are also a highly visual species, often lack of confidence stems from others sending you "get away from me" signals due to what's perceived as genetical inferior traits such as short height, balding, bad facial ratios, introversion, etc.

rarely do good looking people experience lack of confidence and as a consequence abysmal social skills.

i do think that extraversion is a genetical trait and not an acquired one. so, it's also selected for by society.
if one doesn't have highly sought after hereditary traits (such as extraversion or good looks), one is likely to spend a sizeable amount of time in isolation (more often unwillingly than willingly) leading to a dysfunctionnal state (aka schizoid, assburger, autism, etc).

I dont think this is true, I know a whole lot of dudes who are balding, short or even "funny" looking and they have girlfriends and friends because they are confident. You're implying that only guys with top tier looks get to have a normal social and love life and I think that's far from reality. Of course if you want a supermodel girlfriend and very popular friends then you might have to be rich or very good looking but that's not required to be a confident human being. Even autists can have these things if they are just confident, I know a guy who was a complete aspie in his behaviour but he also didn't care about anything and was very assertive and that way he even got a girlfriend. Also introverted doesn't mean youre insecure or weird and being extroverted is not required to have a normal life, you just won't belong to the party goer types.

The "get away from me" signals usually come from social stuff such as you acting insecure, awkard or weird which automatically displays a sign of weakness and weirdness that weirds people out.


tl;dr
Looks matter in a way since they can give you an advantage in certain situations but not as much as confidence and if you have the latter then someone bullying you for your height won't even bother you and you go on with your life just like anyone else and that's the point I'm trying to make here. People without confidence take everything to heart and become even more insecure in the process while people with confidence don't care and just go on without deluding themselves further.

If you have no confidence then looks won't do shit, that's the truth but if you have confidence then it doesn't matter if you're short or something else because even if some dumb slut makes fun of you youre still able to get thorugh life without being insecure.

If you're not confident people will avoid you even if you have good looks. They will approach you in interest until they notice that you're a weirdo and then start avoiding you because you're weird, boring, lame, awkward, not able to give attention/validation and all the other stuff that human beings require to have, there are many good looking guys who are fucked just because they lack these things.

Also dating apps contain the most shallow and vile whores on the planet, they are the lowest common denominator when it comes to succubi. They all have massive mental issues and crave validation which mean more to them if they get it from a good looking guy. Dating Apps are full of tattooed whores who had a shitload of dicks inside them and they have the shittiest personalities, they also always look way older than they actually are because they are completely fucked. Please go outside and look at actual couples, most of them don't even look good, don't compare everthing with dating apps and other dumb shit like that.

There is no such thing as a human being who has nothing wrong with his brain. An average human has a thousand defective genes. 80% of them affect brain function.

Temperament, personality traits and mental health are heavily affected by genes. Usually to the tune of 80% variance being due to genetics. Upbringing is known to have absolutely no effect on adult personalities. Parenting doesn't matter.

When I was something like 11 I noticed I'm living my life through fantasies, be it media or my own daydreams. I decided to change it, force myself to pay attention to the meatspace and nothing else. It was extremely boring. The world seemed dull beyond compare and I was depressed. I also concluded that conversations were basically shared daydreaming. The opinions, feelings being expressed felt arbitrary, accidental, and to me that meant made up. The social did not play on any strings in my soul. Or maybe I did not have the instict required to get into a social interaction that was genuinely rewarding. Either way I do not have something that sane people do, and the real world felt dead.

Then my mom made me watch a movie with her, my boredom was alleviated and I decided that the fantasy world is better after all.

> I've read that it can come from negative reinforcement
Most of the writing on schizoidism is by psychoanalysts, who are professional bullshitters. It's caused by genetics, and to a much lesser extent noisy environmental influences like infections hampering development, cosmic rays zapping neurons in a young brain etc. That is the case for psychological differences between people in general.
