Schizotypal personality disorder is defined as a personality disorder primaily characterized by social isolation, as well the exhibition of odd behavior and thinking, often accompanied by unconventional belief systems. [1] There is often a high rate of comorbidity with other personality disorders, which may be due to considerable criteria overlap with other personality disorders, specifically avoidant personality disorder and paranoid personality disorder. [2] Traits of paranoid ideation and unusual experiences tend to remain stable over time, while odd behavior and constricted affect are the least prevalent and most changeable.[3]
