I told her about my surgey and she was so disappointed and went to tell me abt someone who had it and had bad side effects, that just helped with my anxiety.thanks alot

The days are getting a little better im not anxious alot except at night..sleeping and panic attacks are still there..i understand everyone wants to push medications but i really want to do without..have you read those side effects? I was relativelt healthy before surg blood pressure was creeping up but i knew it would get worse..but this harmone dump is the worse ..i just want to be in control again..

My hairdresser just scared me
anna9/15 replied to anna9/15's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ive already had the surgery..and im dealing with some sode effects ..such as anxiety and a little depression..im still in the harmonal stage.so she regretted what she said after i shed a tear Makes absolutely no sense..expecially since its something we cant turn back the hands of time with. Because they truely dont know any better, i am still slightly in my regretful stage..so saying things like that didnt help.. -
But the side effects are scary, and it seems like a drug ill have to wing myself off..

I feel myself waking up with panic attacks. Is that normal? No. I'd talk to a therapist and your surgeon about this. I have they want me on medicine, but im afraid of the side effects and what could happen down the road, i swear it seems like im such a rare case with these symptons after surgery -
I have panic attacks when i wake at night
