It feels.like the 30 years of.my life have all been wasted by this concussion. My education, my passions, my relationship. I was married for two months and than this happened. I became a completely different person, my emotions have gone wild, crying everyday for over a year an a half. I cry at weird things, looking at things that remind.d me of the past. It just doesn't make sense.

Also now the only people I relate to are also brain injured. I am not seeing a point in a life that has forgot the ability to feel joy. I was the type of person that could stare at s tree for an hour and be in a complete sense of awe, now I feel emptiness. also I took joy in my silence, now its a constant buzz that makes me want to be violent towards myself. I know brain injuries can be much more severe and people are dealing with them but I am not one of those people. This injury feels like death has already happened.
