My journey through the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy surgery, my challenges and all the thoughts that spill out...
About VSG
Sleeve Gastrectomy is a surgical weight loss tool in which the stomach is reduced to about 25% of its original size, by surgical removal of a large portion of the stomach, following the major curve. The open edges are then attached together (often with surgical staples, glue and possibly cauterization) to form a sleeve or tube with a banana shape. The procedure permanently reduces the size of the stomach and is performed laparoscopically and is not reversible. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/vsg/about_vertical_sleeve_gastrectomy.html
I'm failing at just being a human right now. My major depressive disorder, ptsd and anxiety has been controlling me for months. I can't function. I've not only thought about ending my life. I've considered and discussed HOW.
Are you linked with a doctor? If not, make an appointment NOW. You know in your heart and mind that this is not normal and you ALSO know that with some treatment, you can start feeling better. Please take those steps to help yourself out of this pit. Andif you're currnetly on meds, it could definitely be time for a dosage adjustment! This is super common with meds you've been on for years!
