What kind of questions did the doctor ask you at this appointment? I am just curious. Although I am a counselor, I have never been to a therapist so I am a little anxious.:tt2:

The psych eval is a personality test. You will take it on a computer. The test is 500+ questions. Seems like a lot, but I did mine in 1 hour and 15 minutes. Some of the questions...

Do you love your Mom/Dad?

Do you hear voices?

Do you see visions?

Are you afraid of the dark?

Do you do drugs?

Attempted or thought about suicide?

Do you think you are attractive?

If you were an artist, would you like to draw flowers?

Do you ever feel like swearing?

Do you want to be a race car driver?

Seriously, these are some of the questions!

There are some off the wall questions, but by your answers, the therapist will score you. They are all true/false questions. Just be honest in answering them.

Thanks for the info! Makes me feel so much better.:tt2:

Not as bad as I thought it would be. Guess I'll live.

I didn't have to do a test on a computer. Mine just asked me some questions to see if I was mentally ready to do weight loss surgery.

Ditto, no forms. Just about 20 min. of questions you would expect, and then a few more waiting while he filled in some info. Don't sweat it (although I did too). -BG

I also had mine on Monday. First I colored in about 290 questions regarding my relationships/love/support/personal feelings. Second test was about my relationship with food (about 75 questions) and finally 25 questions regarding my relationship with close family. All hree also had questions regarding suicide. Then I talked to the dr for another 45 minutes.

Main thing is I PASSED. I was actually told that I was an excellent candidate. Yeah me!:tt2:

My eval was about 20 mins long. Basic questions. Nothing I haven't said 100 times already!
