Psych Eval, 2 More Appointments, Light At End Of Tunnel

Finally was able to get a psych evaluation scheduled and only have to pay $70 vs $350. Excited yet nervous at the same time. Only 2 more appointments left before paperwork is submitted. Any advice on what not to say during the psych eval? I just don't want to give them any reason to think I have issues and deny me based off the psych report. I've been kind of depressed lately, my weight is going up and I'm 15 pounds away from hitting 400 pound status and I'm absolutely disgusted with myself :-(. It's been really hard and my health problems have started to creep up on me again. Any words of encouragement is greatly appreciated.

MissTxDiva, I have no advice on what not to say! I told my psych that I have tons of addicted family members (food, drugs, alcohol), that I knew I had a food addiction, what my behaviors were, and what I had done to overcome them. After she told me that I am guaranteed to become an alcoholic post surgery, she still gave me approval! LOL

I think they're trying to weed out people who would do something stupid like eat a whole pizza the day after surgery. I think 99.9% of us are smarter than that! :)

Good luck!!

I remember your other post, so glad you found a cheaper alternative. I am seeing the Psych in 10 days so I'm with you, I want to know what to say not to screw it up! I'm sure you'll do fine.
