馃敜 Schizoid Words: A Guide to Understanding Adaptation...
Definition: Adaptation refers to the process of adjusting to new circumstances or environments in order to survive or thrive. In psychology, adaptation involves modifying one's thoughts, behaviors, or emotions to better fit the demands of a given situation.
The Schizoid Experience...
- Adaptation plays a strategic role in the lives of individuals with schizoid dynamics or schizoid personality disorder.
- Individuals develop adaptive strategies as a means of protecting themselves from perceived threats to their emotional well-being.
- Schizoid adaptation is characterized by a withdrawal from emotional engagement in social interactions.
- Individuals prioritize self-reliance and autonomy to avoid potential vulnerabilities or hurts.
- This adaptation may manifest as a preference for solitude, introspection, and independence.
- Schizoid individuals seek to create a safe emotional distance from others.
- Additionally, schizoid adaptation may involve a focus on intellectual pursuits or solitary activities.
- It serves as a means of finding fulfillment and meaning outside of social relationships.
Reasons for Schizoid Adaptations...
- Schizoid adaptations can arise from various factors, including lack of parental attunement, early childhood experiences, and environmental stressors.
- Individuals may develop adaptive strategies in response to adverse or traumatic experiences, such as parental neglect, rejection, or emotional abuse.
- Individuals who have made schizoid adaptations often come from backgrounds where they were not treated as a person in their own right and did not have their emotional needs recognized by their caregivers.
- These experiences may lead them to withdraw from emotional connections to protect themselves from further harm.
- Genetic factors may also contribute to schizoid adaptations, as certain personality traits or temperament may predispose individuals to prefer solitude and introspection over social interactions.
- Environmental stressors, such as societal pressures or interpersonal conflicts, may further reinforce schizoid adaptations as individuals seek to navigate the complexities of their social environment while maintaining their autonomy and integrity.

please include schizospectrum people in your mental health positivity post. please actually include schizophrenic, schizoaffective, schizotypal, schizoid and other psychotic people. still to this day, i get called dangerous for being schizophrenic. my last ex told me they "knew" i would lash out and become dangerous and that they shouldn't have dated me specifically because i'm schizophrenic. i never lashed out to hurt them, by the way, but they routinely hurt me.
schizospectrum disorders do not make someone inherently dangerous. people still believe this firmly. our fight isn't over we still have to continue to speak about schizospec people and how unfairly we are treated. we are dehumanized instantly the second people find out about our conditions. we are treated like ticking time bombs. people openly admit that we are scaring them when we talk about our psychosis and how it affects us.
people tell us to calm down and that our delusions aren't real and that we're overreacting. people give reality check us and force us to try to think in ways that scare us. people refuse to trust our own accounts of our own lives and what is happening to us, even when we are not actively delusional or hallucinating. people infantilize us and treat us like we're stupid and have zero autonomy.
we are not dangerous. we are not scary. we are literally just existing in a world that refuses to accept us. please keep talking about schizospectrum struggles and how we need to be seen as just another human, just like anyone else. we can be as unique and varied as anyone else with any other neurotype. we are not all the same person, and we are not inherently dangerous or scary.

one thing that i'll never understand is that when like autistic people mask they're not trying to deceive anyone and it's sad they've been forced to mask because of social pressures (obviously) but when people with personality disorders mask they're automatically trying to "manipulate" everyone around them so that they can "abuse" them and "trick" them ??? like what

'I couldn't get hold of the idea that I was me. I lost the sense for a little while of being a separate entity. I was afraid to look at anything; and afraid to touch anything as if I didn't register touch. I couldn't believe I was doing things except mechanically. I saw everything in an unrealistic way. Everything seemed highly dangerous. I was terrified while it lasted. All my life since I've been saying to myself at intervals "I am me".'

the way people talk about and treat avoidants and schizoids and any other outcast is disgusting. we are not bad people for not fitting in with everyone else or for being different than everyone else. we did not choose this lifestyle, it was forced on us by you, the rest of society. you forced us into a life of isolation and then blame us for being alone.

every schizospec person deserves respect- severely paranoid schizospec people who struggle to form relationships, schizospec people who can't form complete sentences and struggle to converse, schizospec people who talk about their delusions with strangers, schizospec people who can't tell reality from fiction, schizospec people who are affected and unnerved by their hallucinations, schizospec people who struggle with hygiene and dressing themselves, schizospec people who can't double bookkeep, homeless schizospec people, addicted schizospec people, unmedicated schizospec people, and so on and so forth. all of us, not just those of us who can hold down jobs or be in education
