What happens in psychotherapy visit



Recommended Posts

I will be having my psychotherapy visit soon. What does this visit include? What will they discuss and talk about? I've never done anything like this before?

I just had mine last week. Nothing to it. Basically he asks you some questions concerning your weight history. It probably won't take 20 minutes. After the talk you have to answer a booklet of questions. Turn it into the front desk and leave.

It's different seems like everywhere. She only asked me question about family,friends and food. When you eat and do you have a support group. Lasted about 20-30 minutes no questioners here. Just stick to the questions don't add any extra. The more you talk the more they sit and listen and read between the words. That's there job!!!

Well first they strap you to a table and put electrodes on your body. Then they give you a small 50,000 volt shock. LOL.

Just kidding. All they do is ask you questions. It is very easy and simple. Be honest with them and don't give them any additional information unless they ask. Mine took less than 20 minutes and I filled out the questioner while si waiting room.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
