I don't really understand what is meant by "your symptoms are just caused by anxiety" or "your symptoms are just psychological". It's all brain chemistry isn't it? Anxiety is brain chemistry right? TBI changes our brain chemistry and causes the anxiety. So how can "we" be causing the anxiety which in turn is causing our symptoms. It's our TBI that caused the anxiety and the symptoms.
I guess what I am saying is that there are times where "we" don't control our thoughts, the chemistry controls our thoughts, and I think TBI is one of those times.
Maybe I am not making sense, but I can't really agree with the statement that it can just be all made up. I was never severely anxious before my TBI.
