Anxiety, have you had it since surgery?



Recommended Posts

My anxiety levels have been through the roof lately and it's all revolved entirely around work. I've always had stress from work but never so much anxiety. I was shaking like crazy, crying nonstop (so opposite from my usual self), and having horrible panic attacks. My friend said she had anxiety issues after losing over a 100 pounds. I'm just wondering if this is common.

I have always had anxiety issues, but now it seems to focus on my WLS. My anxiety is associated with the fact that I'm going to do something to stretch out my pouch. It scares me so much, that I worry about eating. So, I think if you're already prone to anxiety, I'm pretty sure it can increase. I hope you feel better!

Anxiety, depression, anger, sorrow, happiness, anxious! All in 10 minutes ! Mood swings are driving me crazy! Balled the other night because my embroidery machine quit working! And this too shall pass!

Depending on how long ago your surgery was, anesthesia can make you go through all these emotions. It can take a couple of weeks to get it out of your system.
