Close Brain Injury
there is a particular guy in the nursing home who was in an accident 5 yrs ago causing a TBI. he has pretty much given up and deals with great anger issues. everyday i go to work early to spend time with him, i am the only one he has not lashed out at. i even go on my days off to spend time with him. i really need some advice and direction to turn. i want to help him in the worst way to get stronger and have the drive to live again!!!!
Close Caregivers
i am a caregiver in a nursing home and it absolutely sucks how some of the residents get treated. i have to really watch my steps and what i say b/c it is my job. i am close with alot of the residents and their family members. there is one particular resident who i have become extremely close with and he is only 40 and has a brain injury! they pulled me off as his personal caretaker, they say they did it to protect my job. now i have to watch him go through neglect every single day.
Open Bipolar Disorder
i have a friend who is in a nursing home for a tbi, was diagnosed as schizoprenic/bipolar and is being heavily sedated and on all psych meds. i truly believe he was misdiangnosed b/c of his tbi, but his sister has put him in a nursing home where no one is trained to deal with that. i am in desperation and in need of answers and any and all help to help him.
Open Anxiety
i suffer greatly from anxiety. there are times that i just can't sleep, and i notice when i am extremely tired it is worse. i am usually working when i get an anxiety attack. my throat feels like it is closing, i get tingly, and start sweating and feel like i am going to pass out! i was good for a couple of yrs and than i have been under alot of stress lately and have been getting them weekly.
Treatments
