NERVOUS

I HAVE MY PSYCH EVAL TODAY, I'M A LITTLE EXCITED AND NERVOUS ALL IN ONE. IT'S THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN. CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW THEIR APPOINTMENT WENT?

im from newport news va the first question they asked me is, you know you can die right ?i said yeah i can die with out it too.after that everything went well for me

Thank you for responding, that's a good and honest answer!

My psych eval was a big "none event".  The therapist wanted me to understand the emotional connections I have with food, which I do.  The eval cost me $100.   Good luck!

Thank you so much, I hope mine is also a "none even".

I had to spend the first hour doing a personality test and then an hour of talking about the test and how I felt the surgery would change my life and eating habits.  It was pretty laid back and easy.  Just be yourself.

answered 100 true/false questions, psych asked how I got to where I was...why I want the surgery and he saved the biggest and most important question for last "What do you think the most difficult challenge will be once you've had the surgery?"

I told him that the biggest challenge that I foresee is getting complacent as I got to goal or got close to it. I thought that might make him think i wasn't dedicated but he said being aware of that common downfall shows him I *AM* ready and being honest with myself. Eval was easy.

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR POSTING. IT REALLY HELPS NEWBIES LIKE MYSELF! EVERYTHING WENT WELL WITH THE EVAL, IT WAS PRETTY LAID BACK AND VERY THERAPUTIC.

How long does it take to find out if you passed? Do you find out before you leave the office?
