DreamsOfSkinny 53 Posted October 13, 2012 Mine was basically stupid.. The evaluator said I overeat because I hate my marriage and my wife is depressed because I over eat.. My kids went far away to college to get away from us both and I should get counseling or a divorce... She signed off on it.. Id divorce my wife but I love her.. stupid. me.. Oh wow! Yeh mine didn't tell me anything "insightful" but if I do get the surgery I'd like to continue as i think it would help eating habits, recognizing and changing them and just the emotional factor with me and hubby of such a drastic weight change.

Scaredy Cat 92 Posted October 13, 2012 Mine took 5 minutes tops. I went in, she took out a single piece of paper and asked me about 5 questions. The questions were 1) am I or have I ever been physically or emotionally abuse 2) what is my relationship status and am I happy with it 3) do I have friends and/ or relatives that live nearby and are supportive of my decision 4) can I follow doctors instructions and 5) do you have the fax number to send this to your doctor. Wow!!! That was it!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scaredy Cat 92 Posted October 13, 2012 Oh there was one more question...she asked if I have been or currently am addicted to drugs or alcohol. I said no, too busy being addicted to food! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polican 32 Posted October 15, 2012 I was in and out in 15 minutes. I talked to the shrink about my family life, support system and the reason I wanted the surgery. I answered some questions in a book and that was it. EASY... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KickRocks 163 Posted October 15, 2012 I have mine at the end of the month and so worried! Mine is 3 long hours then i go back the next day to talk to the Dr for an hour! Why is mine so long compared to others? Oh and its going to cost me $600 but if insurance pays it all i will have to pay is my copay.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AaronRene14 18 Posted October 15, 2012 Mines wasn't a test or anything, it was basically like seeing a shrink. the therapist asked basic questions about live, family, etc. i was referred to a psychatrist, however we got it sorted out and i was cleared within 2 wks, the tests the doctor had referred me took longer to clear.

ReduceReuseRecycle-Me! 119 Posted October 17, 2012 My psych eval is tomorrow, but my patient advocate at the surgeon's office sent me home with a questionnaire with 567 true false questions. It took a while to fill it out. I have been to psychiatrists in the past for my panic disorder so I figure the visit should be pretty basic tomorrow. I will report.
