Being a voice

[QueenTiff 153]

So I wanted to put this on here because of my recent post. My recent post I had I was in a terrible place and I just wanted support. I'm still in this place of confusion but I'm a fighter and I don't want to give up. I post this because there was so many other people who just basically poured there hearts out to me privately expressing they feel the same way. I know I can't do much for people but I at least want to be a voice for them. So I say if someone cries out for help just listen. All the positivity that I received really helped me. It may sound cliche but I took the advice and gave it to others now I have a bigger support group.

Thank you and I will always try to be there and support you as well. I'm going through a rough stage after the surgery but I'm not gonna give up and I want to fight and show you that you can do it too

I think the emotional effects on women who are pre-menopausal are not really researched enough. Previously most people who had WLS were older and super morbidly obese.

If you are a menstruating woman, the hormone dump from surgery really does a number on you. Until recently I don't think there have been enough young women having surgery for this to be effectively researched.

I still doubt it will be. No one in the WLS community really cares about the emotional issue post-op until people are either suicidal, drug addicts and alcoholics. Those seem to be the only extremes they recognize.

I'm glad you are feeling better OP.

I agree this definitely has an emotional toll on women and it's not really targeted like it should be. And thank you, thank you so much for being there
