PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION
(Confidential)


Patient Information:
  • Name: Anonymous Roach
  • Date of Birth: Tuesday March 2nd, 2010
  • Referred by: Jack Gerrick
  • Psychologist: XXXXX XXXX
  • Place of Examination: XXXXX
  • Date of Examination: March 2nd, 2010
  • Reason for Referral: Mr. Gerrick wishes to test the mental capacity of the young runaway he calls 'Anonymous Roach', in order to determine mental functions and to separate from the revived Graveyard's deceased.
  • Procedures: Clinical Interview


Background Information:
Jack Gerrick seems to believe that the Patient, hereby referred to as 'Anon', is a runaway. After conversing with Anon myself, I have discovered that this is not completely the case. Anon insists that he came from a book entitled 'The Book with No Name' by an Anonymous author, that had pages of 'Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers' by Mary Roach tucked within. He goes on to say that for whatever reason, he found himself outside of the shop and, when faced with a strange blue haired woman, ran until he found the Graveyard. He has taken up residence and work there ever since.

Upon further investigation, he now has three others living with him in the basement crypt of the Funeral Home. Another male named Mrrh and two toddlers, Cheryl and Harry. Anon insists that they all came from items; A Shrunken Head, a Possessed Med Intern's File Folder, and a Bloody Pipe respectively.


Communication
  • Strengths: Highly skilled Listener.
  • Weaknesses: Can not directly converse if his partner can not read or understand common sign language.
  • In General: One of the first things I was informed of upon meeting Anonymous, was that he did not have the ability to speak. In his case, it is not mutism in any sense and stretch of the word, but rather...he quite literally has no vocal cords in order to produce the type of communication that our society takes advantage of. In the place of a voice, he uses either a notepad and pen, or his very intricate knowledge of common sign language.


Behavioural Observations:
  • Strengths: Can Function Alone.
  • Weaknesses: Unobservant to surrounding area when doing repetitive motions. Tunnel Vision.
  • In General: Anonymous seems to be a predominantly solitary being. He seems to be rather comfortable alone, and often becomes engrossed or lost in his work. General observations of Anonymous on the job shows that he seems to forget everything around him once he's started to dig. When asked later, he insists that he 'Just starts to think' and 'Then suddenly the work is done'. It should be noted that a few sure noises to pull him out of his reverie are as follows: The opening creak of the Graveyard Gates; Muffled groans from below the Earth, and the voices of Mrrh, Cheryl, Harry, Deimos or Jack. Unfamiliar voices go unnoticed until physical contact is initiated, or if they come within close visual range.


Cognitive Functioning:
  • Strengths: Adroit.
  • Weaknesses: Easily confused with modern slang.
  • In General: Even before performing the tests, it is quite obvious that Anonymous' state of mind is a little skewed from where a Male of his age should be. I believe that time away from an 'average' teenage life has sheltered him from hobbies, events and slang that those his age are accustomed to. When introduced to common slang, he seems to take the literal route to understanding it, which in most cases leads him to a misunderstanding. Outside of that, he is rather adroit, and tends to look at the picture as a whole, and usually takes the routes that favours his companion at the time, even if it means sacrificing what he was doing before coming across them.


Social / Emotional Functioning
  • Strengths: Loyal, Reserved, Generally Friendly.
  • Weaknesses: Shy; Does not like contact; Emotions are difficult, if not impossible, to correctly and solidly convey.
  • In General: Socially, Anonymous is quite shy. He does not open up very easily, but with the people he favours most (Jack, Mrrh, Cheryl, Harry and Deimos), he will tell them anything, proving that once he gets close enough, he is a very loyal person. However, no matter how close his companions get to him, it seems that he draws the line when it comes to seeing his face. When one of the favoured people hug him, obvious distress is evident in his body language, but he does not actively attempt to cover their eyes. When anyone else hugs him, the obvious distress is read as complete panic, and he will cover their eyes with his gloved hand and his entire body will freeze until they let him go. As a whole, he attempts to not touch anyone unless to get their attention. He also expressed to me once that up until recently, he had submitted to his fate of never having a friend; that up until Deimos and Mrrh, he had met many people, and none of which he had ever seen again. Despite this pessimistic outlook on companions, he still does not hold a grudge, nor is he unfriendly to the people he meets, with the exception of those who attempt to touch or remove his hood. The shadow over his eyes, linked with his mutism, makes it difficult if near impossible for him to convey the proper feelings; this general makes him come off as disinterested, unfriendly and secretive.


Diagnosis:
Despite this handicap, he seems to be able to function at an acceptable level. He needs to work on being comfortable with touch and closeness of others. It is recommended that he works to overcome whatever fear he has that keeps him from showing his face to the public; it would make social interactions much easier.

Respectfully submitted,
XXXXX XXXX
