What is done for a person diagnosed with a schizoid personality?

Schizoid personality: For ones that seek treatment, since symptoms are similar to negative symptoms of schizophrenia, a trial of low dose antipsychotics such as Risperdal or zyprexa is warranted, for blunted affect. Also wellbutrin (bupropion) for anhedonia, tricyclic or ssri antidepressants or Inderal for social anxiety. Also, supportive individual & group psychotherapies.

Very little: Schizoids don't believe they suffer from anything, and rarely show up in our consulting rooms because of it. Occasionally they will seek therapy because they are told by a parent, typically, that they need treatment, which is confusing to them for they are perfectly happy to be by themselves the overwhelming majority if the time. In such cases the therapy is more about the person who sent them.
