Well there is the increased risk of developing depression after surgery and antidepressants are great at warding that off but take time to work think 6 weeks to like 3 months so yeah also different ones work for different people I've been on about 10 of them most don't work for me because of conflicting factors such as bipolar disorder and insomnia. So yeah I would trust your Dr but also listen to your body if something feels really off tell them because it can be fixed

I had to do 2 sleep studies back in 2014 both at the hospital they are annoying but if you have apnea you need to get tested the machines they have now are amazing and I'm sleeping better than ever

I see your on ativan I took that for a while klonipin works much better for me also latuda works amazing for depression and anxiety and doesn't cause weight gain. Trileptal is amazing for mood I'm on all 3 it keeps me sane

I've done one before and they ask like 300 questions some more than once and it's to make sure you are serious also there is the eval where they get a general idea of you as a person just be honest and as far as failing I mean being suicidal might be a big red flag other than that not sure I see a psych doc regularly and she is fully supportive so it's easy to pass

Hey just wanted to say this is my second time in the program and I have cheated a bit too but it's ok your not going to change overnight small little baby steps that you can implement over time that stick is the best way to go. I meet with the nutritionist in like 3 1/2 weeks and I'm nervous too because this week I've gone back on old habits a bit but there's always time to improve ok just keep pushing alright we got this pm me if you want a buddy I'm always up to talk and listen ok
