A lot of the times you remember how you were before the injury, then recall how you are now after it. It's a strict comparison and if you didn't know yourself too well before the injury, it's no use trying to analyze yourself after it.

Also know that many of your attributes and personality can get amplified in ways you never thought of.

As of now, my colleagues tell me I'm more steadfast in my opinions. I do know I'm more direct and speak my mind more often - (before the TBI it was) something I saved by timing it instead of blurting it out.

Impulses are more difficult to control because of the broken filter - the same filter that is related to controlling your dreams.
