Denial is a big symptom of a TBI. Like you, I spent months convinced that first, I was perfectly fine and then that I could just will my way through all the symptoms. While I was doing this, I was way less functional than you are. It's part of the injury.
You're lucky because you've got people here who understand what's happening to you and won't stop encouraging you to get help until you finally do. I went through the denial stage alone. I had no idea what was happening and half the time I thought I was losing my mind.
Please don't write us off as a bunch of old nags - we're just trying to spare you a lot of the agony we've already been through.
The truth will set you free.

i know why i post here now. i just need support. my best friend that got me through everything to first time was a senior and is in college now. we used to talk but not really anymore. she was the only one that really knew what i was going through and now i dont even talk to her or see her anymore. i miss her more than i could have thought possible. now that i dont talk to her i dont have anyone that understands what im dealing with so i put it all down here. im just lonely.
