| Summary: | Larry has always felt removed from his peers and co-workers, living on the fringe of the group. His boss moved him away from working with the customers who complained about Larry's odd behavior. Lately, he claims to be experiencing some strange sensations, smelling odd odors and receiving telepathic messages from an old friend he recently learned passed away. This training title highlights the major symptoms of Schizotypal Personality Disorder. Symptoms of Schizotypal Personality Disorder may include: ideas of reference (excluding delusions of reference); odd beliefs or magical thinking that influences behaviors and is inconsistent with subcultural norms (e.g., superstitiousness, belief in clairvoyance, telepathy, or "sixth sense" in children and adolescents, bizarre fantasies or preoccupations); unusual perceptual experiences, including bodily illusions, odd thinking and speech (e.g., vague, circumstantial, metaphorical, overelaborate, or stereotyped); suspiciousness or paranoid ideation; inappropriate or constricted affect; behavior or appearance that is odd, eccentric, or peculiar; lack of close friends or confidants other than first-degree relatives; and excessive social anxiety that does not diminish with familiarity and tends to be associated with paranoid fears rather than negative judgments about self. |
