I have a TBI and I feel like the only one who has this injury. My TBI is very minor and it does not effect my physically very much. My TBI effects me mentally. I have memory problems, emotional problems and i am very impulsive now. I tried to go to a TBI survivor support group but, I only went once. I only went once because the other people in the group were a lot older than I was and a lot more effected by their TBI than I was.

I am hoping to meet other high functioning people who also have a TBI. I am unable to live on my own because of my memory. Because of this I live in a state ran home for adults with disabilities. The part of my brain that was injured when I obtained my TBI causes me to act the age I was when I got the injury.

Please send me a message if you can relate at all.

Welcome! TBI is not minor and your deficits sound similar to mine, you are not alone. In my experience, most physicians I've talked to have no understanding of our ailments or the causes and treatments available. If you can, I recommend that you learn as much as possible. This is a great site and it is loaded with information and very knowledgeable people.

Hi there! Welcome!

There are a lot of great people on the board with a lot of great advise...some that have had minor bumps and some with major ones... and some of use that feel like they should be minor that have turned into major issues..

Hope you find some answers...
