Hi Benrese
I think it will be the sleeve. They had said the bypass, but there may be complications when they get in there and after doing some research and reading 'sleevies' on here, I think the sleeve would actually be the better option for me.
The fact that I am so willing to speak to someone, is because I went through a VERY bad time over Xmas & new year. I couldn't get to visit my family as I was too ill to drive the 180 miles to see them. I spent it totally on my own and to be truthful, I was not in a good place mentally and I didn't feel safe being left on my own! If I had known where to go, I would have signed myself into somewhere, just so I could talk to someone about how I was feeling. Things really did get that bad! This is why I feel we need therapy after having the op. I don't think I will be the only person who has got to that stage. Anyone else that suffers with depression, will understand where I am coming from with this. My bariatric team (Albeit only the surgeon, dietitian & 1 nurse!!) all knew about my depression and the fact that I have tried to take my life once before, but still I am not offered any help and left to cope with it on my own.
If I can help anyone by telling it like it is, then it is worth it........If anyone else suffering from depression has read this, please, push for being given the option to see the psychologist after your op, if you feel you need too. Don't leave it like I did........ I found the strength from somewhere to be able to be here to tell my story......... On another day, I may not have!!
We must have therapy after our ops!!!
By the way....... I am fine now and really on a high. My brain has come out of neutral and is firing on all cylinders!! Lol.
Hugs & take care
