Nervous

I guess we are in the same stage. I have my psych eval tomorrow and then they will submit everything. Praying they say yes and I get a date.

I hope they say yes to you as well! It's crazy that they even have an option to deny us. Especially if we have health issues that this would benefit. My clearance eval was pushed back from 10/12 to 10/31 do to a conflict at the drs office. Which is frustrating me.

I remember going through this process. I was a basket case in some ways. I was sure I was going to be denied, since it had happened 6 years previously. I refused to invest too much into the surgery until I got the approval, but part of me still believed it was going to happen, so I was very conflicted. I went and bought clothes to show to myself that I had faith it was going to be approved but refused to donate my old clothes until after I got home from surgery because I was afraid something would still happen to prevent surgery even after I got the approval. We all have issues and fears connected with this, you are so not alone. Yes I am now 3 1/2 months out, but now my fears are different and I still have to practice putting my fears in their places etc.

Keep asking questions and we will keep helping. Keep sharing your feelings and we will keep supporting, that is why we are all here. Feel free to ask me questions personal or otherwise and I will be glad to answer, I am an open book. The psych eval made me nervous but honestly most therapists (and being one I think this is overall the truth) are there to help and if you are honest and open you will be fine, Remember they meet with people all the time going through the same process so nothing you say or feel will surprise them. Good luck on the eval and just be yourself and you will be fine, I am sure of it.
