I too dislike the raining MATH and I am bad at word finding bubbles.:eek:

Sorry for jumping in on this topic, but I just joined up so I could write here. I've been suffering from the effects of three, maybe four concussions in the last 2 years. Mostly the usual symptoms, cognitive and memory difficulties and such. I was always a unorganised and forgetful person already, now it's just ridiculous. Plus I have Bi-Polar Disorder to boot, so mood changes are quite bad.
But that's not my point. I've always been a very creative person. I've been studying photography and am embarking on my career and wanting to start a business. I've always been doing projects, I'm also a musician, did a bit of writing, all that sort. Lately I just haven't been able to do anything like that, I just get completely stuck. It only occurred to me a few minutes ago that this may be linked to my concussions. Is it possible? And do you think I can get it back? My creativity is (or was) a big part of who I am. I really do feel hollow and pointless without it. If it's gone then I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do with my life. |
1erasmus,
Welcome to NeuroTalk. Your struggles sound familiar. Please feel free to start your own thread with the symptoms you are struggling with. There are many good people here to help and support you. The thread "Vitamins" has some good information and links that you may find helpful. You say you are on a lot of meds (Your Sleep Apnea post). What meds are you taking ? What is the objective of each med ? Many doctors use meds rather than trying to understand their patient's symptoms. Over-medication after a concussion is common. How long have you been diagnosed as Bi-polar ? Does it have an coincidence with your concussions ? My best to you. |
Lumosity
CC and DFayes,
What are you trying to accomplish by doing Lumosity ? It sounds like it is stressing you. Its value for rehabilitation has not been studied successfully. |
Yes you can!

I know it feels hard, and I don't know where you are in your struggles, but have faith that you can get your creativity back. I think it's just a process. I'm not finished with the process yet, but I'm getting there. I think you can to. Just think baby steps! |
A valuable tool
