Psych eval was a joke, she passed me easy as can be ... only paperwork I had to fill out was insurance stuff.

She asked me a series of questions, had me count backwards from 100 by 7's. Dunno why but .. *shrugs*

I passed, calling my coordinator now to make my one on one with the surgeon!!

YAY!

Hahahah. Congrats?

I'm insane and still was approved for the band. Don't think they are looking for sanity...just can a patient and will a patient follow doctors orders.

The AMA now consider depression and anxiety disorder as comorbids....go figure!

The counting backwards is cognitive to see if you're able to concentrate well enough to count back :eek:

That's great you passed and that yours was easy! Alot of people didn't have it so easy like my test... I think in total I answered over 1k questions. Horrible and many hours wasted to find out just like you that I was sane.. :)

Mine wasn't long at all. I filled out the insurance paperwork, and that was it. I was head shrunk to make sure I could handle the changes necessary to the surgery and to make sure I am seated in reality.

I pretend well in front of others .. ROFL

Yea! You are giving me hope for tomorrow. I have no clue why the psych evaluation freaks me out but I hope mine is quick and painless. I sure don't want to find out I am not sane!!

Must practice counting backwards by 7. That actually sounds a bit straining!! :)

Hell, I'd have had to have a piece of paper and a calculator to count backwards from 100 in 7's. Sheesh! Then again, I'm certifiable, so that just proves it! LOL!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
