I've still been pretty depressed, especially since I lost someone who I was close to.
Anyway, a few months ago I filled out the MMPI for adults, 567 questions, and it's supposed to be administered by a psychologist, but I found the scoring online and took it myself, and it's the adult version, so it may not be fully accurate, but here is the description of what I'm supposed to be like, from my results:

"retarded thought processes", LOL. It does seem largely accurate, though.
OK, I can relate to the "strong need for achievement and recognition for accomplishments, high expectations for self and others; guilty when goals are not met..... that's ALL NORMAL.
All I can tell you is my experience... ONLY screwed up people got into psychotherapy... they're trying to figure themselves out!!! One of my close friends from high school became a therapist, she was the most F'd up person I ever knew. I've been a Registered Nurse for 25yrs and have seen people who should NOT be in healthcare, let alone taking care of people with mental health issues. Find someone who actually listens to you and your concerns. Everyone is in it for the $$.
