Inkblots!

[Ratty Sr.]

Ever wonder how psychologists use Rorschach inkblots to test your psyche? Find out here. It's a pretty awesome article that will help you give "right" answers if your psychologist ever administers this type of test. It'll also make you realize why some people hate shrinks.

If I'm ever in that situation I plan on saying that every inkblot looks pretty flowers, then finally admitting that they all look like a dog with its head split open. Of course if the guy doesn't get the reference then I'd probably be in a whole lot of trouble.

Oh, he would get the reference. Then he would interpret your sense of humor as anxiety, manic depression and paranoid shizophrenia with split personality syndrome and suicidal tendencies. He would also conclude that you have supressed sexual desire towards your mother and that you were sexually abused by your father as a child.

They see penises everywhere.... i don't ... and you call me the perverted one???

I mostly see geography and human tomography (kinda like what you see with a scanner) and some animals.

I like your analysis - how much do you charge an hour?

I thought it was to see how well you could lie.

Psych tests are stupid, pointless, and stupid. Someone remind me, what purpose are they supposed to serve?

They help psychiatrists diagnose you without them having to put any thought or effort into it - that way they can skip straight to the medication part, which is where they really shine!

damn, my answers were more imaginative than what they are suppose to be. It's the insanity, I guess.

As were mine.


Example - I thought the first one was a stingray.

I believe that Rorschach tests are about as credible as online IQ-tests, and I don't trust those a whole lot I can tell you.

Shrinks? Well.
When you get fired from work and get depressed, you'll probably think going to a shrink is a good idea. Wroaung. They're gonna feed you small little shiny pills, melting your brains 'till even Pat Boone and Lee Atwater sound great.

Then, you'll be transfered to some hospital led by a relative of the monster that owns Tranquility Bay. They're gonna experiment new drugs on you, then they're gonna experiment new diseases on you and its medication counterpart efficiency.

Somewhere between a couple of weeks and a couple of months later, you'll be useless anyways, saturated with diseases and chemicals. So the surplus human rats are dumped in a spiraling corkscrew disposal unit, grinded into sludge and flushed away.

Wee!

Soup is good food.

If you ask me, psychodynamic therapy is a waste of time and money (especially since it's a loong/indefatigable procedure to get 'cured' with it) - nevertheless it does help people. The only psychotherapy I would consider taking (if I needed it ) would be cognitive behaviour-therapy to remove a phobia. That usually only takes about 10-20 sessions - or could even be done in just one with the intense exposure method.

I saw pussy everywhere. I saw big pussy, I saw small pussy, I saw hairy pussy, I even saw exploded pussy.

Shrink: 'You sure it's not a penis?'
Me: 'Nope. It's pussy alright!'

Jeez.

Interesting, I took the Rorschack test a few years back when I suffered from depression (well, rather before that diagnosis was made), but also took other tests which the psychologist herself admitted were more reliable. Can't remember the names of those tests though.

You have a disregard of all rules and take sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence. In other words, you like hockey.

At least you're lucky they didn't use ECT (Electro-Convulsive-Therapy).
That turns your brain into jelly, and has no benefits whatsoever.
It's the most barbaric treatment available to modern medicine.

If they wear a white coat or have a doctorate, they can get away with most anything.

I think everyone comes up with more imaginative responses than they are supposed to. The test is stupid but this might say something about the fallout community compared to the general population. Or maybe not.
