Is "pschyzoid" the proper term?


Question:
I always thought that was a derogatory
term. I'd be (mad) if I had psychophrenia and someone called me a
pschyzoid. But I'd probably be more worried about the aliens who
planted that computer chip in my brain.

Answers:
If the person in question likes to report to the dance floor, it would be more proper to refer to them as a freakazoid.

Other Answers:
The spelling is schizoid.

And I believe the proper term for a person with schizophrenia is "schizophrenic".

Schizoid Personality Disorder is a mental and emotional condition different from schizophrenia. See references below:
