Dr. Winarick and I dive deep into Schizoid Personality Disorder. He discusses the history of the Schizoid character throughout psychiatry and psychology, the changes in the DSM when Schizoid Personality Disorder broke off into three distinct personality disorders (Schizotypal, Avoidant, and Schizoid), and the difference between descriptive diagnostics and Psychoanalytic diagnostics. He reviews the main findings in his dissertation, which examined the differences and similarities between Schizoid and Avoidant Personality Disorders. We also talk about the Schizoid spectrum, as viewed in Nancy McWilliams’ Psychoanalytic Diagnosis, where there is a neurotic-borderline-psychotic axis measuring the degree of disturbance. And more!
