"is like trying to stuff an octopus into a shoebox - it just don't fit"
Actually, octopi are very flexible, and it could be easily possible to stuff one into a shoebox. Also, not all octopi are big; some are very small and can be stuffed into a shoebox easily.
Anyway, I do agree with your statement about taking mental diagonses with suspicions. While the fact that many people dislike psychologists and psychiatrists may make people even more suspicious, it's still good to be wary of what they say.
