I had my surgery on September 27, 2017 everything was fine the first couple of days but I recently noticed that I have been feeling anxious and having some buyers remorse I don’t know why but I feel like something is wrong even though I know that there is nothing wrong? I can’t explain the feeling other than some extreme depression has anybody else experienced this?

Good morning I haven't had my surgery yet. However; from what I have been reading and watching on YouTube the buyer's remorse and depression is normal. As far as feeling like something is wrong you should reach out to your doctor to be on the safe side. It's a young lady on YouTube that I watched last night you should go and watch her video and ask her some questions as well. She is very down to earth and replies. Here is the link

When I replied to your message I didn't do it directly do it just posted on the thread. The video I am referring to is on the thread. I pray you are in better spirits

@Mercedes8989I haven't had my surgery yet, but it's just a few days away. I just wanted to say I hope you're feeling better now! I feel like this a lot of the time even now, pre-surgery, but I know I just have terrible anxiety especially about medical stuff. I'm definitely a hypochondriac. I sincerely hope everything is fine now and it's all going well for you.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
