I went to my Pysch. Eval. today. I was kinda nervous but when I saw that the lady I was talkin to was a little old lay, I didn't feel intimidating. It was actually easy. All I did was sit there and pour out my life story. Within one hour. I was thinkin "We're gonna need another session" but I squeezed it in there. I don't know why she wanted to know about my childhood and past relationships, but I told her. At the end up the session she asked, "Do you want me to send the recommendation to you or your coordinator?" I was sooooo happy. I started cryin. haha. Woo hoo! One step closer to my WLS! Shelly

Shelly -

Congratulations on clearing that hurdle!

Enough baby steps and you'll be sitting pretty on the loser's bench.

Yay Shelly! One more thing behind you. The lady I spoke to at my psych eval didn't ask anything about my childhood and relationships, which I found a bit bizarre. She just let me do the talking. Weird, but it went ok.  Mare

 Mare,           Hmm. I'd rather have blabbed ther whole time and decided what to tell my shrink instead of her prodding. I wasn't entirely comfortable with tellin some strange little woman about my problems but I did what I had to do. haha. The drive was the worst part of the whole thing. Hopefully I won't be driving to Greenville all that often until it's time for my surgery. Shelly
