Diagnosis
After a physical exam to help rule out other medical conditions, your primary care provider may refer you to a mental health professional for further evaluation.
Diagnosis of schizoid personality disorder is typically based on:
- Thorough discussion of your symptoms
- Symptoms listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), published by the American Psychiatric Association
- Your medical and personal history
