Have you discussed this with your psychiatrist/handlers?
Not on your life, baby. But given that I know the L, F, Pd and Pa scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory like the back of my hand, it's something of a moot point. A little recommended reading you might find relevant: Cleckley, Hervey (1903-1984): The Mask of Sanity, Fifth Edition, 1988.
Anybody who bothers with this kind of stuff needs to see a psychiatrist. (My university encouraged all students to take the MMPI. I saw the "recommended careers" it listed for me and decided it was as I suspected, from the types of questions, just plain voodoo bullshit. That was the last such test I took, more than 30 years ago.) --Tim May "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster.
