Would you be friends with someone who has schizotypal? And if you find out someone you're friends with had it, would you end it?
Schizotypal personality disorder or STPD is a mix of autism spectrum disorder, BPD and schizophrenia. The difference is that unlike with schizophrenia, you won't have hallucinations. Also unlike schizophrenia, it can be developed through neglect, abuse and trauma alone even with no predisposition. There are abandonment issues like with borderline personality disorder, and there are a lot of traits of autism. In the newest DSM, it stopped being a personality disorder, and is instead called simply "schizotypal disorder"
There has been a lot of awareness about autism and such, and now neurotypical people don't mind being friends with autistic people, but i wonder what do you think about some of the less known neurodivergences?
So, would you be friends with someone who has it?

Oh sure, they'll sit with you and have a conversation, but don't think it's anything other than a "school shooter insurance policy" for them at worst, and a virtue signalling pat-on-the-back at best. Ie. You're just a prop to them.

I've made friends with every type of person. Autists adhds ocds bpds npds aspds and the occasional schizophrenic and even schizotypal. The only ones that eluded my grasp were schizoids and histrionics. And the only one I refuse to be friends with are DIDs, because it's impossible.
Schizotypals are fun but they don't get too close, they are fun because their pattern recognition is bizarre and they have very eccentric ways to describe their own realities, they often have very unique perspectives that carry the occasional banger of wisdom in them. Though schizotypals are harmless, if they also have ASPD as a combo, it's serial killer territory at that point. Both disorders are relatively harmless by themselves combine the two and it's an explosion.

I think that's just the difference between medicated Vs unmedicated adhd. Before my medication, I was insufferable and could not be relied on. After medication I slowed down my thinking and could socialise better and am now dependable but not to the degree that I'd like, still a work in progress.
Autists are the easiest to make friends with for me personally. Autists are like the capybara of disorders, they can chill with anyone even psychopaths. They're so nice and innocent even psychos appreciate them it's funny

It's because normies still think Autism = retardation or social buffoon disorder. They haven't fully understood it's less to do with the mind and more to do with the nervous system. In my opinion autism shouldn't even be categorised as a mental health disorder in the psychological sense, more of a neurological disorder, something body related, like FND (functional neurological disorder). The only reason people wrongfully see it as a mental or social disorder is because of the speech areas of the brain being prone to overload. And because humans use speech to perceive personality or express it, they make misreads on autists all the time.
In reality autists are just normies with spicy nerves and that's all
