EsthersDoll, you are right...at least I am noticing I'm reacting differently. That has to be a step in the right direction. Thanks for pointing that out!

I'm sorry to tell you this, but it might just take some more time before you notice a difference in being overly sensitive. The good thing is that you realize it's happening and that you can hopefully talk about it with people when you're able to. The people who love you and understand what's going on with you (you're recovering from a brain injury!) will forgive you and let it go.
