What was your mental state after surgery?
cassislame posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm almost 1 week post op and I've been having really bad anxiety and some depression. How did you feel after your surgery? -
One week post op I can have yogurt and soft cheeses now! I wish I had better control of my emotions. I had been stable on my meds for bipolar and anxiety until now... Now it feels like I'm off my meds completely, which I'm not. I know I need to be patient and let myself feel what I need to but I don't wanna hmmpf *crosses arms and pouts* I just want my moods to stabilize again.

Me to @FL*Girl. My surgery is on Oct 30. I hope the depression doesn't worsen after the surgery. I'm barely hanging in there as it is.

@FL*Girl and @ColdWater99 I've seen from a lot of people that emotions go kinda haywire after surgery :/ My psychiatrist said that fat cells hold hormones so when the fat cells die they release the hormones. I've noticed for me its kind of like really intense PMS mood swings. But I'm optimistic that things will work themselves out! Congratulations on your surgeries and I wish you both quick and easy recoveries <3<3

Thank you for the tip! I have been feeling pretty out of control lately this I’ll give that a try. I think that’s a big part of my anxiety. Good luck on your surgery! Will pray for you for a quick recovery! -
Six days post op I'm down 13 pounds which I'm excited about. My mom had been staying with me for the past 3 months to help me get to the weight that I needed to get the surgery and she had to leave the day after I came home from the hospital. I'm really close to my mom, she's like my best friend and I'm so lucky to have her. But her leaving has been really hard on me, I had separation anxiety with her as a child and I guess its never really been addressed because I still have it lol. I know this is only temporary but damn it sucks.

That really does suck she had to go!
Reminds me of my brother's birth story. My grandma came about a week before the due date to help Mom with the baby. Baby was a month late! Grandma finally gave up and left (had to go plant her garden), that night the baby came.
You are going to do great!
