The only real disorder I have is ADD but i'm guessing thats not similar. First off, were these online tests? If so, their probably written by some guy who thinks he/she thinks they know what they're doing.
But even if you do have this disorder, my experience from ADD is to try to push past it as hard as you can and try not to beat yourself up or anything like that.
I have Bipolar Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder and I am here to tell you that the best thing I ever did was when I stopped being ashamed/scared to tell people. Mental health has so much stigma behind it. Do not be afraid to tell your family, your diagnosis is something that you have, not who you are. Just say " I got a diagnosis today and it turns out I have Schizoid Personality Disorder". Most families would be supportive and understanding. Do research about your disorder with them so you all can fully understand the ins and outs of what you are dealing with. Good luck to you!
