Worried

Hello all. I woke up today wondering...

Have any of you ever had a suicide attempt in the past and told the psych about it during your evaluation.

I have one suicide attempt when I was 15 and my nurse knows so I know I need to tell my psych when it's time for that evaluation...also I used to be a cutter and have scars on my arms etc.

I'm worried that even if it was so many years ago when I did it if he will say I am not emotionally stable for surgery.

Please someone let me know so I don't go crazy.

This surgery is the only thing that keeps me going, I don't want to lose it all due to a stupid mistake I made 7 years ago.:thumbup:

I think I posted some of this wrong. I'm 22 and I weigh 416 pounds, I cant buy clothes anymore, i break furniture, I don't fit in chairs. I cant do anything I want to do, seatbelts don't fit anymore etc. This surgery will give me my life back and I'll be able to actually live again. The surgery isn't the only thing that actually keeps my going or knowing I can have it. It's the fact that I don't want to die at 22, 23, or a young age because I ended up not being albe to have the surgery because of stupid mistakes. Everytime I lose weight on my own I gain it back and then some no matter what I do. The band will help me actually keep it off to where I can be a healthier me and not worry so much about not waking up the next day or having a heart attack going up the steps.
