I have a psych eval coming up..... what all is he going to be asking me? They said it will take prolly 90 minutes or so!

Mine took 15 minutes, maybe 20, tough to remember but you get the idea. She asked me about my mental health and physical health and about the surgery. She asked WHY I wanted it because I didn't look like I needed it until I told her my BMI. I guess I carry my weight well. <shrug> She wanted to make sure I was doing this for me and that nobody else was making me do it or putting pressure on me to do it. She wanted to know what kind of support system I had etc. It went quickly for me because I do not have any history or mental illness or depression and do not take any meds and because it was clear it wasn't something I am reluctant about in the least. I have a good support system and am quite knowledgeable from reading these forums. I have already lost a good bit on my own without it being warranted. She wanted to know how I'd manage the 5 children post op. All in all, there were no red flags to discuss, so it went quickly. She actually seemed happy for me and was sort of congratulating me and told me straight up she was recommending me for the surgery and thought I'd be very successful. Use that to get an idea. It seems the questions she asked me are fairly typical, though you may have more to discuss than I did.
