You have also described very well the New Zealand system - like 5 sessions of cognitive therapy and you will be back at work full time - AND I believed it at the time!
The other good one from the Psychological Assessment - many people would be happy to have your results - derrrrrrrrr I'm not and never would have been.
I won't carry on about the dangerously stupid people I have had to deal with as I become too emotional.

hi Lynlee not just NZ ACC system which I think was a good concept, that has gone airy , but I find myself in a similar state system , that is fixed and unyielding and expects! that a world class engineer would think himself , fortunate to work in a charity shop , not that the good people who work for such organizations , should feel down graded , but for me its just a twist of the knife and just would remind me of lost ability, not that I am vain, or lazy but to be put through that and to struggle in a simple situation , to just tick the box, of some case worker , who has no understanding of brain injury . HOW DO WE Explain a partial loss of self or cognitive function, that stop you being who you were ?????? I don't understand myself , but know that part of me is just plain missing , like a book shelf collapsed and someone put it back together . but forgot the top shelf and threw out the books, to look at it, its looks like a normal book shelf , unless you knew what books it contained, before it got smashed , and what order they were in . you see brains an,t organized A to Z or top to bottom
well perhaps you guys and gurls know what I am saying
sunny spring day to day. I am thankful I can still appreciate that
