I am unsure how many PCS suffers feel this way. But I have said almost since the day of my injury I don't feel like my self. I had some depression with it and it still occurs but not as frequently. Have you considered seeing a psychiatrist?

At first I was afraid I was losing myself and in a way I have. But there is still alot about me that is the same. Initially I refused to accept I was as injured as badly as I am and demanded from the world that I be cured, NOW. I think that was denial now I try to take one day at a time. Sorry I know thats not what you want hear.

You recognize somethings not right and that is important, be sure to vocalize this to the Dr's repeatedly and make sure they write it down. For some I think that feeling passes with time. For me I still don't feel like myself. I try to be positive,"ARGHHH" and do what is asked to heal. I have never been good at waiting and have had a very active life until my injury. I am still adjusting but in some ways I think the change was OK.

Please do not be to hard on yourself you have suffered a major injury. You are spot on my wife has been great but she still has the moments where she does not get it. For me thats OK because for her to really get it would mean she would have to live thru it. I love her dearly and would not wish this on anyone. This forum has been a lifesaver for me. I know here I will be heard and understood.

What tomorrow brings no one can say but that does not mean it will be void of meaning, excitement, adventure but it will most likely be different than what you are used to. Your life is not over and can still be rich and full. Give yourself sometime to heal.

Hope you feel better
