Just to echo the comments that have been made.
At my medical, the nurse did not investigate any of the mental health tests, because, as she noted, I had good eye contact.

I put my good eye contact down to anxiety and the fact that despite my mental health problems, the manners enforced on me as a child still prevail! (well, most of the time)!
