Went to the first appt with the psych evaluation. The fact is that years ago i tried to commit suicied. and last year i did have some issues, that were stressfull to me. BUT i have gotten the help i needed from therapists! instead of harmful ways of coping i am doing things like, talking to my husband, writign out my feelings on paper and walking. all things that are helpful to me. i am functioning better and and am in a more stable invironment. i have worked things out.

But the psychologist basically wants to hold me back and keep revisiting the past. they dont want me getting my life back. I am trying to move on, after having sought out the help i needed, to get to this point. i put off even starting this process during that time. WHY do they need to put me back there again? I was open and honest. now i feel like maybe i should have just lied to them about myself. yes i have had issues in the past but i dont want my past preventing me from having a future. and they dont care. they told me "well people always start out with the best intentions but people just dont stick to it".

GRR! This is making me angery. I want to be able to run after my kids, and not be in pain all the time. i want to feel better about myself and. i want to be healthy and they wont let me get there. i have tried traditional methods to lose weight and it just doesnt work. :( :angry:

I don't know why these things happen and seem to pull us down, but if you have already confronted those feelings and issues (which I can only imagine are some of the hardest things you have been through), then you are one STRONG woman! You can get through this too. Prayers your way. Keep us posted.

I think i just figured out how to make this work! My depression is a symptom of PCOS.... study's have proven RNY Gastric Bypass can completely reverse PCOS and its symptoms! Between that and therapy, id be completely fine! They have to listen to that. thats fucking medical science on my side....

Megan, you can definitely make this work! Try to stay positive. I had a similar experience with my psych evaluation so I got a 2nd opinion & was approved. Even if they say not now it doesn't mean never. ~Blessings delayed are not blessings denied.~ Praying for you.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
