*deep breath*
Also, random side note. I realized why so many internet people are introverts. Extroverts are busy hanging with friends... like extroverts.
Anyway, eh.....
The dude who told me about EDD and that I had it turned out to be some bogus dude... So, professional time! :/ I'm screwed.
Okay, it's basically confirmed that I have some sort of personality disorder that developed around second grade. So........ Diagnosis. Well, I have this on a Word document, so I keep updating it without you guys knowing, so I put extra space between them.
Post-doctor-fun-time! :D :T no.
I have schizoid personality disorder! Whoopeee!!!!!! I'm so happy-no. Just no. People tell me I don't often act antisocial online. Well duh. I can think about what I'm posting first. And check it over and over.
Reviewing this... Oh. I also may have mild OCD but dunno.

Phenomenology
The 'secret schizoid'
Many schizoid individuals display an engaging, interactive personality contradicting the observable characteristic emphasized by the DSM-5 and ICD-10 definitions of the schizoid personality. Klein classifies these individuals as "secret schizoids", who behave with socially available, interested, engaged, and involved interaction yet remain emotionally withdrawn and sequestered within the safety of the internal world.
Frequently, a schizoid individual's social functioning improves, sometimes dramatically, when the individual knows he or she is an anonymous participant in a real-time conversation or correspondence, e.g. in an online chat-room or message-board. Indeed, it is often the case the individual's online correspondent will report nothing amiss in the individual's engagement and affect. It has been suggested this may occur because, in the schizoid person's mind, the use of this anonymous medium makes his correspondent 'unreal also'.
Aha. Thx Wiki. This is the link to the full page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizoid_personality_disorder
