In short, Schizoid Personality Disorder (SPD) is a disorder characterized by people who lean towards a solitary lifestyle, who don't express their emotions (very well) and who have a lack of interest for social interaction.
Generally, ISTJs are described as being dependable and orderly, but are also said to be relatively, largely introverted (hence the 'I') and expressionless.
After going through that Wikipedia entry I linked, I recognize so many aspects of myself in that page that it's almost disturbing. I always knew I was different from everyone around me and I've oftentimes been miserable being forced to go to school and such. But it all makes sense now... And after finding this out, I'm not sure what steps I should take to rectify this "problem". Should I even seek to?
Is there a correlation between ISTJs and hints of SPD? Should SPD even be considered a "disorder"? Is it that much of a bad thing that it should be considered disruptive to one's self-development?
