Schizoid personality disorder is typically characterized by long-standing patterns of detachment from social relationships and a limited range of emotional expression. It usually emerges in early adulthood and is considered a lifelong condition. While personality traits can evolve over time, a formal diagnosis of schizoid personality disorder is unlikely to develop later in life. However, certain life experiences or other mental health conditions may lead to similar behaviors or symptoms.
