Curious as to how that came into play with the psych evaluation? I have always wanted to see a psychiatrist for awhile, but didn't have insurance. Now that I have the time, I figure why not. So I would love to talk about my issues with my therapist but I'm debating on if I should wait until AFTER surgery. Lol. I intend on telling the psych what they ask, and being truthful etc., I just don't want to be denied surgery for over sharing if you know what I mean? Long story short, in regards to the surgery nothing I want to chat about has anything to do with surgery or anything I can see as a possible issue.

I wish I could offer advice on this. I was evaluated today & that was a question that was asked.

I'm not "clinical" OCD but I do have some tendancies. I clean A LOT and get a little quirky sometimes with details most people don't notice. All things of which my psychologist is fully aware. But I do have Anxiety and Panic Disorder, which means I tend to freak out easily over small things and I don't do well in social situations or large crowded places with a lot of noise. I was honest, talked to my psych over many months about this surgery and she made sure I was fully prepared. Even with a history of depression, she never threw up any flags. She knew me well enough to know that my weight was a large part of my depression, and believed that this surgery would only help my situation.

Be honest, don't overthink it, and keep a positive attitude! Good luck!

I had developed an OCD with the scale after surgery LOL
