Is the psych evaluation really that easy?

Just had my psych evaluation today, and all it ended up being was a short conversation about what my expectations were, who my support system is, and general questions about my life.  It was over before I knew and with the psych dr saying she will fax my approval over this afternoon.

Yeah!  One step closer and hoping to be sleeved in July!

It all depends on the shrink...
My eval lasted 3 hours.
1st thing the dude said to me was "I'm gonna eat your old stomach with some fava beans and a nice chianti." Pssffftttssstttfffststtt....

OMG too weird and funny.  I think mine helped becuase the shrink had also has surgery with the same surgeon.  Just glad it is over!

I had to fill out a written psych evalutation and met with the psychologist for about 1 hour.  It wasn't bad at all.

I had mine today and mine was easy peasy just like yours!  He even printed the approval for me so I took it with me.

 Mine was super easy too, same thing.  My conversation ended up being more about my sleep apnea.  But, it differs..
