Had the Psych Eval yesterday....



Recommended Posts

It seems every psych eval is different...however mine lasted 3.5 hrs!

It included:

*426 fill in the bubble written test: questions were personality related and eating issues (took about 1 hr)

*2.5 hrs interview/discussion with the Psychologist

Whew! Hope I "passed" LOL :smile2:

Hope this helps others out there...don't stress about the psych eval :thumbup:

I agree it is a stressful appointment. I felt like what could they possibly ask me for more than 2 hours? Well it was silly. Questionaire of on a scale of 1 - 6 stuff and then meeting with the psychologist to answer the same questions you just filled out. Are you really going to tell her "yes I hear voices"? come on now! jeezzz...

I had to wait till the afternoon to meet with the pychiatrist who said I passed so I'm sure you did fine as well.

Unless those voices in your head are saying differently! lol

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
