🧠 Myth: Memory problems after #TBI only affect old #memories.
💡 Fact: TBI can affect both forming new memories and recalling past ones.
People may have trouble remembering conversations, learning new routines, or experience memory gaps — past or present. Memory after #braininjury is complex.
💜Caregiving is one of the hardest things a person can do, especially after a brain injury.
OBIA's Online Caregiver Support Group is here to remind you that support exists for you too.

7 1/2 Lessons About the Brain. Lisa Feldman Barrett. “What kind of a brain is necessary to create a human mind?“ I’ve come to believe that the brain does not create the human mind; instead, the brain channels the mind. I explore this concept in The Q’Zam’Ta Trilogy. #BookSky #BrainInjury #brain

Health care for #BrainInjury is a separate world from all other care. Your injury is not healed but managed with 20th century knowledge. You’re treated as if you should be inspired to lead a diminished life instead of being given effective treatments & grief therapy. 🤬🤬 concussionisbraininjury.com
