I will be having my psych visit soon. Dr said I will have to take a test? Has anyone else done this, and if so, what is on the test. I'm starting to stress.

I had to take the MMPI2, which was 567 multiple choice questions. It was very super basic (Which career would you rather have? Would you rather go to a party or stay home? Etc). I'm sure there are many different types of tests though.

I am so ready for this surgery and hope there aren't any trick questions that make it look like I'm not ready.

Just answer honestly.

The psych told me before I took the test that we all have good days and bad days but to answer whatever was representative of "most of the time."

I took a verbal exam and two test. One had 380 questions the second had half of that. Some are simple like "Do you want to be a sports reporter?" Others seem a little tricky like "Do you get along with your mother and father?". OR "Is it easy for you to make difficult decisions?" Stuff like that.. I got my results via telephone about an hour ago. One of my results read they thought I was being slightly deceptive due to not answering the same as 100 people. However, I thought I was pretty darn honest. Let me know how you do! I am excited to hear about the new you!! Good luck!

Yes, it doesn't give you the option to feel "Sometimes, Most the time or Rarely".. How did you do Quest4TheNewMe?

I'm waiting on a call back with an appointment, I hope it's soon. Ready to get this in the past. lol

Oh don't stress. You will do just fine! Like Quest4theNewMe said and just be honest!

The test I took was super easy but takes forever - almost 2 hours

The most important thing is to make sure your bubbles are on the correct spot. I accidentally skipped a question and ended up having the redo 1/3 of the test. Good thing I noticed because I had answered a bunch of questions wrong, like seriously wrong. Example: Do you ever feel like killing yourself? Was a yes, etc. I DO NOT. Oh my, my test results would have been a mess. But after 500+ questions my concentration was failing me.

Oh wow, 2 hours?

I have my psych eval the least Wednesday of this month thank you for asking this question I am concerned too...for those of you who have taken it....I am someone who has depression and anxiety and unfortunately one suicide attempt...I am managing all of these issues through medication and counseling will these things hinder my ability to pass the eval? From anyone's experience? I feel like one catalyst. ( not all but one) to my mental health issues is my weight and would hate to fail based on these things when I'm working towards one other way to alleviate them by loosing weight. Thanks for any input!

I just did my psych eval this past saturday. Super easy! My questionnaire was maybe less than 100 questions.. Then we did a verbal meeting. For me the questionnaire was done quickly and then the meeting was about 30 min. Im sure if your psych wants to go more in debth with everything it could take longer. The majority of my answers were "no" so we just breased right through.. The questions were depression, anxiety, ocd, eating disorder, etc related. Be honest, dont over think or stress.. If you start over thinking your responses they may pick up on that and think youre trying to hide something.

Oh!! He also wanted to see you arent an emotional eater, that you have a positive outlook on life, etc.. He wanted to be sure surgery was for health reasons not just vanity reasons.

Thanks everyone for responding. I hope to get an appointment soon. Dr says she is backed up like 4 weeks.

He told me that I tend to internalize my emotions and that I should work on expressing them, but otherwise I'm good to go.

I took an online test. Multiple choice. No right or wrong answers. Just pay attention to what they are asking.
