    Summary :

    The current study focuses on the Rorschach Test results of a 24 years old male who had social anxiety symptoms, mainly a strong fear of being judged by others, doing a presentation and of being embarressed in front of others. Rorschach results were interpreted based on the notions of psychoanalytical theory and the French School of projective methods. The results revealed that main conflict of him centered around Oedipal anxiety with the use of defense mechanisms such as isolation, repression and intellectualization. The intrusive quality of the responses that refer to mother image was very salient. The content of the responses are focused in detail.
