I'm not crazy...I guess that's good?

This week I had my psych eval, I was really nervous about it and spent a lot of time trying to research what the session would be like. What I found was a mix of really in-depth and not so much.

When I made the appointment I assumed that I could just do it over my lunch hour so I scheduled only one hour for it. Boy was that a mistake...my session started at 1:00 pm and went all the way through 4:30 pm 

I've suffered from depression for the last couple of years so I was worried this would cause an issue with getting the go ahead from the psychologist, thankfully I don't think that was the case. 

We spent a lot of time discussing the surgery, what I knew about it and the reasons why I wanted to take that step now. We talked about a support system at home and all the changes that my body would go through. Much of it I was already familiar with because I seriously spent so much time researching WLS before I actually made the decision to go that route. 

As part of the meeting I took a personality test I think. There were questions about how I felt people felt about me, how I related to other people and things that I'd done in the past. I found it really surprising how accurately she described me from the answers that I gave. I mean, I knew that the whole purpose of the test was that but still...

In all, that is the first check mark on my criteria list for my insurance. Next step, sleep study
