=== Selvmord ===
[[Selvmord]] kan være tema for individer med schizoid. De kan ha nedgangsperioder og være deprimert når alle forbindelser er kuttet, men så fremst de har noen relasjoner eller et lite håp, er risikoen lav. Selve ideen om selvmord er en pådriver for schizoid sitt forsvar. De kan ha tendenser for å skjule egne selvmordstanker og intensjoner. En studie fra 2011 om suicidale individer ved et sykehus i [[Moskva]] understrekker at schizoid er de minst vanlige av [[personlighetsforstyrrelser|personlighetsforstyrrelsene]] som begår selvmord. Som oftest blant det en rasjonell begrunnelse til hvorfor de vil dø.<ref>[https://cyberleninka.ru/article/n/rasstroystva-lichnosti-u-patsientov-sovershivshih-suitsidalnye-popytki 2011.] "In cases with schizoid disorder, the characteristics of the premorbidities (emotional coldness, autism, inability to have fun) also affected suicidal behaviour. Their suicides were always genuine in nature, well-planned, and it was only by chance that these patients survived (usually the fatal outcome was prevented by the sudden appearance of others). They denied the existence of suicidal experiences earlier, but argued that in the current circumstances, suicide seemed to them the most appropriate way out. This "suicidal construction" was well-reasoned and took a stable position in the mind. Important in all these cases was the absence of any significant anti-suicidal factors (most were found in a situation of relative social isolation; there were no professional and personal interests). The high ability to introspect in these cases only increased the isolation from reality and made the choice in favour of suicide more reasonable." Besøkt 16.01.20</ref>
