I was a Psych major at UCLA, but anyone can tell you that the Rorschach is not a form of therapy, but a way to find out what's going on in your head. By having you respond to the shapes, it's supposed to cut through your conscious defenses and let you give clues to what currently important. This helps the therapist when you're not sure of what your real problems are, or when your unwilling to say.

I never understood why this stupid thing was ever invented. Ok so if I stare at an inkblot, I'm supposed to see things that make me seem like I'm a totally demented person...? Just a quack trying to make a buck...

...is your cup half full, or half empty? Perception is the crux of making sense of a collective reality. Your perception of an ink blot definitely can tell the doc what wheels are turning in your brain. I say go for it! Maybe set a time limit--I mean, see the shrink for a while, and follow the recommendations, and then move on...life is a smorgasbord...try some personal development courses...they're pretty liberating.

It just tests what's on your mind, like if you're obsessed with murder or death. Oh yeah, doc, that looks like the spattered blood of a pedestryan on acrowded street. Same thing with word associations

The Rorshach test helps diagnose people with problems that are already obvious.

i imagine when you're in search of out about your self and what's on your concepts, then you may probable be extra effectual off writing down all of your randomm concepts on a chunk of paper and then re-interpreting them...and keep your self some hundred money!
