Schizoid

From childhood, I am amazed by the child who likes to play alone, is not attracted to peers, avoids noisy fun, prefers to stay among adults, and sometimes silently listens to their conversations for a long time. To this is sometimes added some kind of coldness and childish restraint. A sedentary, seemingly frozen face... This is a schizoid.

For a schizoid, nature has frozen out the feelings and inserted only intellect, and, as a rule, without guidelines. The vague and dense world of experiences, the shadow of premonitions and the flame of passions, the joy and shame of sensuality, everything that is so close to poets and women - all this is not his world. He may be interested in it, but he assimilates it only as a foreign language. His world is the world of concepts, diagrams and calculations.

And what should he do with this among people, that is, what is not calculated?

He can decompose and analyze. And to seduce and seduce is as impossible for him as walking through a wall after a house ghost: he has nothing to do it with, he simply does not have the organs for this. He lacks intuition, and it is difficult for him in company, as well as in company with him, where he is always a “black sheep” and almost always “inappropriate.” He cannot catch “subtle things” in relationships: when to say what or remain silent, when to leave or stay.

Therefore, as a rule, he leaves.

As a result, this is a person who seems to be always fenced off from those around him by some kind of invisible, as if glass, wall. He cannot, and rarely wants, to open up his loneliness and go out to people, to himself. inner world lets in extremely reluctantly. A schizoid is a hermit person, a person “not of this world.” Most often he is taciturn (“I don’t know what else to talk about”), but from half a turn he “loads” a suitable interlocutor with his theories, for example, about the structure of the world. Schizoids are great theorists. Unable to support the most basic social chatter, they deeply systematize and generalize the communication process; in life they will simply be fooled, but they will write a work on the psychology and philosophy of human relationships. In life they are helpless, but in theory they are omnipotent.

A scientific works they are called something like this: “The Most General Theory of Everything.”

If the schizoid is not touched, he is completely harmless, but at the same time he cannot be tamed and remains a “thing in itself.” People close to him are calm, but uncomfortable: the schizoid will not give them warmth, love or gratitude, and some of his actions may look cruel. In fact, he is not cruel, but simply analytical, and his coldness is rather an inability to feel the soul of another, a lack of emotional resonance. Nevertheless, he is still a person, and if his “shell” cracks, he reveals a vulnerability unexpected for those around him.

... Probably because I’m not a schizoid. And who? - I asked myself a question, and today I went to the Internet to look for a description and a test.

I found a fairly clear and simple test for determining a psychotype, published in 1999 by the Ast-Press publishing house (who doesn’t know - the publishing house is not the last on the market) in the book “The True Truth, or a Textbook for a Psychologist on Life.”
Link to the test.
I recommend it.

While the first one inside me screams every morning “forward, to the tanks!”, the second one (a representative of dependent personality disorder), even from the simple incontinence of loved ones (not to mention the screaming, swearing, betrayal and other symptoms of the psycho hell I experienced in my marriage) dies before my eyes. a matter of weeks, or even days.

I quote the description partly from the same resource, and partly from Wikipedia (everything is explained more clearly there), but only those parts in which I really saw myself - as if I was looking at myself from the outside:

Paranoid- This is a projectile with great penetrating power. Energetic, never doubting that he is right and that everyone who hesitates is wrong, he rushes like a tank, and resistance only strengthens his pressure.
In ordinary life, he is simply a purposeful and confident person who knows what he needs. If he has a “highly valuable idea,” everything is subordinated to this, and he goes straight to it, sweeping away everything in his path and not paying attention to the little things and details - for example, to people.
He does not like to chat and philosophize for a long time, he is a man of action, although if he needs to convince you of something, he will not spare either his or your time for this. If you are in the same business with him, you can rely on him: he is reliable, firmly adheres to the program and fulfills agreements. However, if you have left the sphere of his interests, do not rely on past friendship and feelings of affection: you remain in his past, and he is not inclined to remember the past.
A paranoid person is not sentimental, and appealing to his feelings is like playing the flute in front of a rushing herd of bison: it is possible, but it is useless. As a person who is “on his own,” he is quite distrustful and more often sees the bad in people.
Oddly enough, most often he turns out to be right.
He seems to have a bit of a kick for power, and his usual lifestyle is wrestling. Of course, he always fights for the best and for justice, and almost always this turns out to be a defense of his interests: apparently because he personifies everything that is best for himself.
He calls it “I respect myself,” others call it “delusions of grandeur.”
It’s difficult with him in the family - he’s always at work, he’s demanding around his loved ones (and children), it’s not easy to discuss anything with him - he knows the solution right away and is categorical in his judgments. He is easily triggered by objections, responds to barbs with rudeness and, most importantly, is very heavy with jealousy.
We owe all the best and all the worst in life to paranoids.

The main feature of psychopathic personalities in this circle is the tendency to form extremely valuable ideas, which are formed by the age of 20-25. However, already from childhood they are characterized by such character traits as stubbornness, straightforwardness, one-sided interests and hobbies. They are touchy, vindictive, self-confident and very sensitive to others ignoring their opinions. The constant desire for self-affirmation, categorical judgments and actions, selfishness and extreme self-confidence create the ground for conflicts with others. Personality traits usually increase with age. Getting stuck on certain thoughts and grievances, rigidity, conservatism, “the fight for justice” are the basis for the formation of dominant (overvalued) ideas regarding emotionally significant experiences. Highly valuable ideas, unlike delusional ones, are based on real facts and events and are specific in content, but judgments are based on subjective logic, a superficial and one-sided assessment of reality, corresponding to confirmation of one’s own point of view. The content of highly valuable ideas can be invention and reform. Failure to recognize the merits and merits of a paranoid person leads to clashes with others, conflicts, which, in turn, can become a real basis for litigious behavior. The “struggle for justice” in such cases consists of endless complaints, letters to various authorities, and legal proceedings. The patient’s activity and perseverance in this struggle cannot be broken by requests, convictions, or even threats. Ideas of jealousy and hypochondriacal ideas (fixation on one’s own health with constant visits to medical institutions demanding additional consultations, examinations, the latest methods treatments that have no real justification).

Asthenic. If you were once very mentally tired - so that everything was getting on your nerves, when any caustic word from someone cut you to the quick and your only desire was for everyone to leave you behind - then you were asthenic.
We all are asthenics, it’s just that asthenics are more likely to be asthenic.
Due to the fact that his emotions are so unstable, an asthenic could be called a person of mood, but in fact they are very different - they have different content emotions. In a person’s mood, due to a change in mood, the overall picture changes, but in an asthenic person, all experiences revolve around his personal successes or failures. A person of mood feels like a part of huge world, the asthenic is its center.
More precisely, a wedge on which the white light converged. When living is so painful, so painful, you begin to value yourself...

Psychopathic individuals in this circle are characterized by increased timidity from childhood, shyness, indecisiveness, impressionability. They are especially lost in unfamiliar surroundings and new conditions, while experiencing a feeling of their own inferiority. Increased sensitivity manifests itself both in relation to mental stimuli and physical activity. Quite often they cannot stand the sight of blood, sudden changes in temperature, and react painfully to rudeness and tactlessness, but their reaction of dissatisfaction can be expressed in silent resentment or grumbling. They often have various autonomic disorders: headaches, gastrointestinal disorders, bad dream. They are quickly depleted.

pss The topic is subject to further study

Did they try to manipulate you? Surely yes, and you are unlikely to enjoy it. And what good is there when they try to control you using your weaknesses, shortcomings, and vulnerabilities.

Of course, every person has their own weak points, and those who try to control and manipulate people, first of all, try to study them well in order to find the best way impact.

But you got an idea of ​​the main types of human psychotypes. If you are interested in this topic, you have a starting point for further self-exploration. Why is this required? The answer is simple: study and try to determine which psychotype you belong to. And, remembering your weaknesses and vulnerable places, you will be able to resist if they try to manipulate you. Educate yourself - do not put weapons against yourself into the hands of manipulators.

Anxiety is a child of evolution

Anxiety is a feeling familiar to absolutely every person. Anxiety is based on the instinct of self-preservation, which we inherited from our distant ancestors and which manifests itself in the form of a defensive reaction “Flight or fight.” In other words, anxiety does not arise out of nowhere, but has an evolutionary basis. If at a time when a person was constantly in danger of attack saber tooth tiger or the invasion of a hostile tribe, anxiety really helped to survive, then today we live in the safest time in the history of mankind. But our instincts continue to operate at a prehistoric level, creating many problems. Therefore, it is important to understand that anxiety is not your personal flaw, but a mechanism developed by evolution that is no longer relevant in life. modern conditions. Anxious impulses, once necessary for survival, have now lost their expediency, turning into neurotic manifestations that significantly limit the lives of anxious people.
