Psych Evaluation

Hello all!! Well today I had my psych evaluation. I think I passed! lol I had to be there at 7:45 and my appointment wasn't until 9. So from 7:45 till 9 I was filling out paper work and answering a bunch of questions. The questions were basic questions. They reallu didn't go into detail. They also were very repetitive! I answered some questions at least 5 times. I went back at about 9 with the doctor. He had a 50 question questionnaire that he had to ask me. They weren't that bad. But again they were very repetitive. They also were worded weird. So I did ask him to explain a few of them. But the doctor was really nice and we talked throughout the questions. He even said they were worded weird. I also took pictures of some of the question forms. I figured that someone on here might want to see what kinds of questions I was asked. I know that it would have helped me going in if I knew what to expect!! So hopefully these help someone. I hope the rest of you guys don't mind. I feel like I cheated on a test because I took pictures lol but oh well hopefully this is the only time that we all have to go through something so personal!! But over all I think I passed. He said he passed me but that he has to wait on the scan tron test I took to come back to know for sure. Well if anyone has any questions about my experience please feel free to ask me!! :) PS: there is a lot of pictures..lol

You are very rude. This is a place to HELP ppl...and a lot of us fear the psych eval. Terri was simply showing us what to expect. I have read other posts that you have replied to and you aren't very nice or comforting. We are all in the same boat...different phases in the journey...but the same boat. Let's not belittle people for trying to help others. K. Thanks.

I really wasn't trying to hinder anyone's evaluation. I just wanted to ease some people's minds. I was so nervous this morning if I would have been able to see what might be some of the questions from someone who been there and done that I would have been more comfortable.

Girl...don't pay no mind to the negativity. You did a good thing. In no way could you possibly hinder anyone's eval by posting the questions. That's ridiculous to even think that way when there is no way to cheat on this kind of test. Some people just feel they are above others and know it all. What-ever...

No, some people just realize that sometimes even an action that is meant to be helpful can have unintended consequences and those consequences might put another person's surgery at risk.

I hope that after I have my surgery I can come back to this forum and talk to ppl the way you do... it must be hell to be so perfect ...

I've seen this person on other posts and she's always so self righteous and rude. Trust me, we aren't the only ones that have noticed this. He/she belittles people and makes them feel awful. Sometimes people just need to reach out and know there's an ear listening....not a speech/lecture from someone that obviously feels they are perfect.

I guarantee if you were about to go in for your psych eval and stumbled on this post, you would have thanked Terri for posting the pictures....not try to make her feel like a fool.

i did not try to make Terri feel like a fool. I just cautioned her that her action may have unintended consequences. As for your nasty little cabal here tonight, you don't know me or my qualifications.

Nor do I care :-) what I do know is, you have offended many members on this forum and some to the point of considering leaving this forum. So sweetheart, it certainly can't just be the members in this post that have a problem with the way you conduct yourself.

Ps...Terri is a grown woman and certainly does not need nor want your "cautions". She's quite capable of making her own decisions without being policed by you. If the forum owner has a problem with terri's pictures, I'm sure he/she will notify her :-)

You're right... I don't know you or your "qualifications"... I think you're nothing but a troll that's looking to get a rise out of people and make them feel like shit... forums are full of them... but you also don't know me, my profession, or my qualifications ...

First off never did you make me feel like a fool! You make yourself look like a fool with your always so smart comments like you are God to the RYN surgery! No one died and made you queen of anything. Obviously you have pissed a lot of people off on here because its not just me saying something. And me and everyone else on here feel like you are hiding your self on this site. You haven't filled out anything on your profile and you criticize people with your smart ass comments. I'm not worried about some unintended consequences from posting some questionnaires on here. You are not the an administrator on this site and if they had a problem with what I posted they will take that up with me. What I posted was to give pre op people an idea of what to expect. No one on here even lives close to me so I'm pretty sure they won't get the same exact forms. My advice to you is to stop criticizing people on here. We are here for support and to show support to others who need it. And I am speaking for many people on here that you need to change your attitude toward others. Or at least change your tone so you look like you actually care and not criticize others. Now I'm done with this conversation. I hope you find happiness and have a great day!!

To everyone else on here I am sorry! I hope all is well!!:)
