- Since the suicide of your loved one, have you found out things that make you feel that in some ways you didn't know them?
- I have an odd question...it's related to pain.This actually sort of relates to the other post I just put up. I recently have had a decrease in the severe pain I've been dealing with.And as the severe pain has decreased, I find myself stretching my...
- I'm wondering if anyone else has tried this?My Dr's put me on it about 2 months ago. It's not a prescription. I got it at Whole Foods, and it can probably be purchased at other stores and on-line.A little background on my head pain...They put me...
- Hiya,A dear friend just killed herself, barely 2 weeks ago.Law Enforcement was there...and my feeling is that she felt threatened by being approached by strangers and that contributed to what happened. (I'm not blaming LE - they were called in &...
- We recently moved. As I was packing the house, I kept on loosing the packing tape, scissors and Sharpie marker. (Now, a non-TBI'r will think this is no big deal. But when you lose these items 20+ times in a day - Argh!)So, I finally wrapped the...
- I wonder if the way I feel is something about me...or if everyone who has a brain injury feels this way.I find myself annoyed or frustrated at times when people learn of my TBI and act so casual about it. I don't know if my neediness is more...
- I know some of you have been having temperatures like this all summer. But, where I live (Portland, OR area) we don't get too many over 90 degree days.So, nothing in particular in this post about TBI. Feel free to post what you want on this thread!
- Ever since the TBI, I lose things. It's so annoying! My latest thing I've lost (today) is my eyelash/eyebrow brush. I've also lost a camera battery and all sorts of things (most of which I can't remember at the moment.)
- Hi,We've sort of had this topic come up before, but I thought it would be a good time to start a new thread on it. We've had a lot of new members recently, so this could be helpful.Would you post the treatments that have worked for you and the...
- I know I've written on this topic before, but here I go again.I know a lot of us deal with writing problems stemming from our brain injury. I'm now about a year and half post TBI, and I still have this writing glitch.I've made it a personal goal to...
- I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience...I've always had serious respiratory allergies in response to basically anything that's green & grows. However, I found that by staying at a high level of fitness, it seemed I could sort of...
- How are you doing with your brain injury during the summer?Do you find any particular challenges with the hot weather?And, are you finding any particular benefits of the sunshine?
- I've had something strange happen this past week. I'm having flashbacks. NOT of the actual accident itself. But rather to the time when I realized I had a brain injury, which caused huge panic for me.I'm waking up in the night in the midst of...
- This is probably going to sound like a strange post....but....here goes....The recovery from brain injury is a hard one with little applause, ceremony and ribbons along the path as you master successes.The successes may be:-learning to feed...
- I read an interesting article in Men's Journal yesterday. (You don't need to read the article to see where I'm going with this. I'm going to pull some quotes in here.) The article is called "Confessions of an NFL Hit man" and it's about the...
