The head injury hangover and the RSD brain, can make coping very difficult. The difficulty with decisions, the panic attacks when you need to do something serious and can't decide and your brain shuts down. The long term depression. It just all adds up to create a 'cycle' that seems like the suction of a drain sucking you down!
My thoughts and prayers to you!

I look forward to speaking with you more. (BTW, I do use methadone amongst my 'cocktail', have had RSD for just under 28 years, have a tbi from another accident in 98, and owned two business's and was a guitarist in a couple of bands, raised two children as well, whom now that they're grown, no longer speak to me)...
My subdural hematoma was just above my brain stem, and I have huge suspicions about my pituitary gland, and there's another smaller one under it, which I forget the name of right now. Maybe you can answer some questions for me about that?

Life is just a bowl of cherries!

Be well,

Pete
