Do I have an unknown personality disorder?

Hi, first of all, I'm 18, unfortunately a complete outsider, and I can't seem to find any friends. But I'd like to have some.

Why is that? A lot of things come together:

I'm shy, reserved, and uncommunicative. I find 99% of people really weird. Most of them seem strange to me. Or am I just imagining it? I can't hold proper conversations. But I can write. I feel strange and completely different. Incidentally, I'm also gay. I hear voices from a distance talking about me. It seems to me like there's a glitch in the Matrix or a conspiracy at work. Am I underdeveloped? I don't have general interests like soccer, which I can't play anyway due to physical limitations, or I find TikTok disturbing, or online shooters like Fortnite bore me. Instead, I like bouldering and am interested in airplanes. Parties, like dancing and such, are pretty pathological for me. There is no such thing as normal.

About my diagnoses:

I spent three months voluntarily in a psychiatric hospital because of increasingly strange behavior and voices. I was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and an adjustment disorder. Autism was also suspected, but it wasn't investigated further.

Sometimes when I try to talk to someone I think I am severely disabled, then when I write and then when I am alone I don't.

I get the impression that people are constantly trying to hide something from me. Why don't I have the ability to hold normal conversations and know how to interact with others normally? I'm missing something psychologically; everyone else has been able to do it since birth. It's as if they know exactly what they have to do and are driven by something.

Your guesses:

I don’t see any vulnerabilities. Strengthen your strengths, it automatically weakens your weaknesses. You may be too focused on your disease rather than focusing on your strengths.

It is by no means that social interaction is congenital. In principle, this is a mixture of exercise and facility, so it can be learned. I don’t doubt you can learn this. Others with your diagnosis have done this too. Just courage, great success.
