Schizotypal personality disorder and AS

Post Reply New Topic

Do you guys know anything about whether these two are positively correlated or not.

I'm curious.

As in coorelated in a good way?
um....I have a friend who is kinda like that and um....it certainly makes things difficult.

Why is this in the TV Film and Entertainment forum? Use the correct forum.

I think there are many connections here with the skitz and AS, especially for people in the spectrum who were abused. as a child I was abused day in and day out, and I developed a personality disorder in order to survive. dissociation etc. I have learned that there is a BIG BIG difference between my skitz stuff and my AS stuff.

My skitz stuff revolves around un life affirming de catastrophizing type stratigies such as trauma related OCD, where as my AS decompromising stratigies are life (my life) affirming.

The nervous system of a person in the spectrum mimics that of a person who has experienced trauma, is very prone to hyper-arousal, so inevitably there will be overlaps.

although one is neurological and the other aquired they are very similer, but very different also
