Psych Eval

[Krystyneh 55]

What can I expect? I have mine on Tuesday. This is only my first one and I have to have 2 at least 30 days apart. I just don't know what I should expect

It was easy. They will ask you about the history of your weight problems and what diets you have tried. They also want to be sure you understand what you are getting into and that you have a support system.

Wow. 25?!. My psych evaluation also included a "personally test" that asks the same questions over and over but in a different context. The test was also making sure I wasn't depressed, suicidal or angry with the world. It was pretty smooth sailing. You will be just fine

I'm afraid he will bring up my past depression. I have PCOS and gained my weight due to it and struggled since age 12 and I'm now 29. Getting bullied due to my weight so that caused me to be depressed.

I am sorry to hear that. I think it is safe to say all of us have probably endured some sort of depression due the size we were, even without the bullying from others.

Go in there with a great attitude and your head held high. They usually only are able to know what you tell them!

Just go with your gut and keep focused on what it is you want... a healthier life!

Good Luck!

I have PCOS and PTSD (depression/anxiety)with current medications. They want to know that its under control, that you have a support system, not suicidal, homicidal lol....., have realistic goals for weight loss, are doing it to be healthy and be a part of a personal improvement goal, not as if this surgery will FIX you and make all problems go away. Fyi, my ringtone is a song that starts out saying "Are you insane like me" and of course I got a call in the middle of my psych eval. Luckily we both just laughed. Im getting sleeved Dec 16th. Good luck!

Thank you I just hope this guy isn't judgemental. I've dealt with enough of those type of people in my life I don't need another one lol

I also have PTSD, anxiety, depression and panic attacks. I'm not suicidal or homicidal lol I just hope he doesn't judge me. I have realistic goals. I know the sleeve is just a tool to help me lose weight. My anxiety creeps into my head and I start panicking

I failed mine, had to do 9 months of therapy. Looking back I'm glad I did. I'm finally at the almost end point. Need the endoscopy, then surgery in January. food has to be monitored now, high Protein, low carbs and multi Vitamins.
