You can be diagnosed with StPD and autism at the same time? I did not know that.

Not trying to pick on you, though. I had just been reading about it.

StPd as a child, AS as an adult.

Now that is unusual, because PD diagnoses are supposed to be in adulthood or at least late adolescence.

Not questioning, though. Just your diagnostic history is intersecting with my interests.

Did you know that schizotypal traits are relatively common among autistic adolescents?

I have schizotypal traits now for that matter, but my autistic stuff started when I was still a toddler (at least if my mother's account is accurate, and it is at least consistent).

not until you mentioned it. I am guessing that on the spectrum, schizoid matter is a powerful presence that relative to AS is relatively close-order.

Well schizotypal is distinct from schizoid in that it also includes magical thinking and ideas of reference, and possible formal thought disorder. No actual delusions, however.

But yeah, there are studies about this. Like this one: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20933368

And this describes schizotypal traits:

thank you for that

I guess I am on the milder side of that. I knew people who were more severely affected.

Actually my ASD is a side disorder of Goldenhar Syndrome, which causes an array of neurological deficits in addition to the better known craniofacial and other somatic defects. I also have major depression and anxiety issues.

No. Just the anxiety, depression, and chronic exhaustion that come with being on the spectrum.
