has anyone gotten depressed before surgery?

I am still going through the testing stage of getting my surgery and Yesterday, I was so depressed all I did was cry! I know I want this, and although my family all supports me, I feel like they don't realize what a life altering decision this was for me! It started after I read the memorial pages and seen that there was someone on there that was my age with a kid (like me)and I was overcome with this sadness! Is this normal? It isn't second thoughts because the idea of not having it made me even more upset! Any help would be great!
