Yes I think it is perfectly normal. You will go through a flood of different emotions... Hang in there. Tomorrow will be a whole lot better.

I have been the same way, i am on a emotional rollar coaster right now. losing my job last week. have root canal surgery friday morning, first preop appt on the 20th and the surgery the 31st. I have been flooding the tears, just like my eyes have sprung a leak. i know i am stronger then this. but I know i am making great choices in my life. but my heart is saying differently. i am not eating very much, i am sleeping too much. i walk around in a cloud. yall are the only ones i can talk to. i cant show my weakness to my husband or my son. they think i am the all powerful OZ. pretty much. but I am so weak right now.

I got my date just a few weeks ago. Been crying at the drop of a hat lately. I'm like a raw nerve. I am even having trouble focusing right now. Fortunately, my closest friend is a therapist. She keeps a good eye on me.

Thank you all for the kind words! My surgery is the 19th next Wednesday. I think I'm having doubts but I know it will be worth it. It's all happening so fast!

Doubts? I am terrified, but not sure of what...the surgery? Not being what I have always thought of myself to be? It's uncharted territory for me, anyway.

I dont think its doubts I am having, maybe I am mourning the onlly friend who ever comforted me, (food) but like a parent that has passed away just have to mourn it and move on best you can, and what they would want you to do. maybe I should increase my anti depressants a little, i will ask my doc

Yes crying is normal. We all have our moments that a good cry will make us feel better.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
