169
Although he was generally unpopular among his schoolmates, he did
very well academically, especially in mathematics. He skipped the third and
seventh grades, was first in his boys' parochial high school class and received
a full-tuition scholarship to Boston College, where he took business administra-
tion courses. He never was one to participate in extracurricular activities,
but always maintained a part-time job and gave his entire earnings to his mother.
He does not see himself as particularly religious but is faithful in his mass
attendance. He does not expect to ever have a vision, mostly because he believes
himself to be too mediocre a Christian. Twice after his mothers' death he thought
he heard her calling to him in the night and is still not sure that she didn't.
He has no opinions about UFO's; although it interests him to read abort them, he
knows no one who has ever seen one.
In part because of the nature of his description of the light in the
sky (and his associated feelings), the examiner WAS alerted to his description
of the belly dancer's chartreuse nipple coverlets, which apparently have signif-
icant meaning for him. Attempts to subtlely pursue possible connection here
reveal the following: The subject's recent anxiousness had begun at about the
time he learned he was to be promoted, ever since which he had felt lonier than
ever before and once again very desperate about the loss of his mother. He cam-
meats that he thinks his mother would have been very pleased and proud of his
success at work, that it would have given her something about which to hold up
her head again. It also would have meant (were she still alive) that he could
provide nicer living quarters for them both. Now that she it dead, however,
such improvements are unimportant; he feels they would be wasted on himself alone.
Along with this loneliness, he acknowledges feeling empty. He says
he can't get excited about anything (not even the belly dancer) although he feels
extremely tense and has tried more often lately to get some relief via masturba-
tion. He has been thinking about his mother so much he acknowledges that her
image gets confused with that of the belly dancer, even when he tries to concen-
trate just on the latters nipple covers.
B. Mental Status Examination
General Behavior and Appearance: The subject presents himself as a well-groomed
man of medium build. His dark brown hair is moderately long with side burns and
a small neatly trimmed mustache. He is dressed in a white shirt, tie, and con-
servative dark blue suit; his shoes are polished. He sat with head down and
steadily smokes throughout the interview. He expresses himself generally well
without excessive gestures. He was initially ill at ease and mildly defensive
with the interviewer but became more comfortable as the session progressed. He
was cooperative and he gave the impression of wishing to be highly candid.
Stream of Talk: There is no evidence of blocking or unusual difficulty in
choosing words. His vocabulary WAS moderately well-developed. The subject
speaks in a slightly monotonous manner but his speech is halting at only two
points (when he spoke about feeling guilty about his mother and about mas-
turbating). He uses no neologism, rhymes, or puns. There was no evidence of
flight of ideas or clang associations. There is no stuttering, dysarthria, or
mispronunciation; he is able to repeat four tongue twisters without difficulty.
