Psych Eval.

Going for psych eval this afternoon. . .nervous.  Any words of wisdom? Dr. Boyd in Conway, anyone familiar with him? Thanks, Alice

Be honest.  I spent over 2 hours talking to the psychiatrist when I did mine.  He asked me questions about my childhood, eating, family, depression.   He was really good and focused on me and my problems and addiction with food, and the reasons I became overweight.   The first psych eval I did in 2005, was much different, I took some personality test which was over 300 questions, and took forever to do, and you had to fill in little bubbles like on the end of the year tests in school.  Then that psych spent 15 minutes with me asking about the surgery.  I guess each psych is different, so I am not sure what yours will do, but like I said, just be honest and open.    Good Luck!!

Thanks so much for the reply.  The appointment went very well.  Dr. Boyd was very pleasant and very professional.  The whole thing was quick and painless. Anyone needing a psych eval in the conway or little rock area, I would recommend him.  He has offices in both cities. Alice
