Schizotypal personality disorder is characterized by social withdrawal and discomfort in social situations. People with this disorder may have difficulty forming and maintaining relationships, may appear aloof or indifferent, and may have odd beliefs or behaviors. While other personality disorders, such as borderline and dependent, also involve difficulty with interpersonal relationships, they do not necessarily involve withdrawal from social situations as a primary symptom. Antisocial personality disorder, on the other hand, is characterized by behaviors that violate the rights of others and disregard for social norms, rather than withdrawal from social situations.
