Abdul is a 47-year-old man who lives alone and is described by his neighbours as somewhat cold-hearted. Abdul seldom responds to greetings, and his gate is forever locked. He does not attend social gatherings or community meetings and does not have friends. Since he arrived in the neighbourhood over 15 years ago, his neighbours have never seen him with friends, a girlfriend or any other visitor. Abdul spends most of his time cleaning the yard and watering his marijuana garden. One of his neighbours once rebuked him for his silence after trying to have a conversation with him, but he seemed unbothered and continued with his garden duties. What diagnosis would you likely assign to Abdul?
