Mood swings?

I got the surgery a little more than two weeks ago and there are a few things that seem to be weird in my peronality. I am usually one to stay calm no matter what, now it kinda feels like my testosterone levels were through the roof. I am so aggressive! It has its advantages and disadvantages, but god it's weird. A psychiatrist friend of mine said that he would have expected mild depression from RnY patients. What are your experiences?

I had mine on 3/12. I just dont care to talk to anyone. They call all day long checking on me and seeing how I am doing. The first 2 weeks were bad even in the hospital I didnt want to answer the phone. This last week however has been a little better.

I haven't had a whole bunch of mood swings, but have to wonder why. We were warned that mood swings would be fairly common.

Aside from when they took my pain-pump away in the hospital, I haven't had hardly any difficult moments. There was that one email I sent to a supervisor at work, about work that hadn't been done, and I was a bit snippy there, and I do seem to get more emotional, but mostly only when it's the end of a very long hard day at work and I'm exhausted, and I think that was always the case with me, the more tired and mentally/emotionally/physically burned out i feel, the less tolerance i have for emotional issues. I really hope to avoid the whole "mood swing" thing if possible.

I can relate. My swings were mostly due to taking steroids for a respiratory infection 3 weeks post-op, but being back at work is difficult. The constant questions/inquiries about how much I've lost as well as comments about my appearance put me on the defensive and make me angry. I don't like being the poster child for weight loss for anyone. This is a very private struggle.

I had surgery 3/12/2008 and I am having a little depression and anxiety my PCP has givin me a little Adivan for the next 30 days to help me, and he did blood work, I am waiting on the results from him to see if I need to do weekly B-12 injections. The anxiety is driving me freakin nuts, I am worried about every little thing and that just is not me. I hope I feel better soon.

Well let me tell you... I feel your pain. And I'll tell you what it is for me... Not being able to turn to (my old best friend) "food" for comfort, subconciously that made me deal with things alot better. Now I have found myself trying to do different things that bring me the same amount of satisfaction...NOT EASY... STILL TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT. It makes you angry at least it did me! Happy about the results but angry that you cant eat what you want and have to have something that you dont. It was a lifetime struggle for me and with my emotional rollercoaster of a life... I missed my BF (food) and that pissed me off. Watching everyone eat what made them feel good.... But it will get better... so they tell me Hang in there!
