None.

Introverts and extroverts feel loneliness the same.

It's just that extroverts have an addition drive to socialize other than merely to avoid loneliness.

Introverts and extroverts will become equally as depressed and unhinged if they don't get enough social contact.

That said, serious introverts may prefer lonliness if they get to avoid the pain they feel being around people.

The criteria for SPD from the DSM-5 are as follows (American Psychiatric Association, 2013):

A persistent pattern of disinterest from social interactions and a limited variety of expression of emotions in a close personal settings, starting in early adulthood and there in an array of contexts, as shown by at least four (or more) of the subsequent:

neither wants nor likes close relationships, counting being part of a family

almost constantly picks introverted activities

has little if any, thought in engaging in any sexual experiences

seldom derives pleasure from any activities

has no close friends other than immediate relatives

appears apathetic to the admiration or disapproval of others

shows emotional coldness, detachment, or flattened affectivity
