Actually, I was probably being too literal about the question because the logical paradox struck me as funny.
I will blame an ambiguity which I think is built into English. "How mindkilled are you?" can imply that you're mindkilled in some sense which is stable over a period of time, or it can imply that you were mindkilled recently but have a capacity to come out of it.
