The following was shared via ‘Facebook’ (FB) by someone who belongs to a ‘sister group’ of one of the FB brain injury groups that I am a member. “Brain Injury leaves our ‘battery’ damaged. Sometimes it takes a great charge and we have lots of energy for a while. Other times it takes no chargeContinue reading “Recharge!”

“Why must you continue to do the opposite of what I am thinking!?”
Distractions are not good for me, especially considering my “mental issues.” Since the TBI, I haven’t been able to multi-task often; and when I can multi-task…things must be simple, without background noise(s), or distracting shiny objects (I am not trying to make a joke; rather, I am überly serious). Tonight, as I was cooking dinner,Continue reading ““Why must you continue to do the opposite of what I am thinking!?””

My brain– yes, it is damaged. I think I would be better off somewhere (like a mental institution) I cannot hurt someone or hurt myself emotionally. Not insane– no, I’m just misunderstood. I think because I was fine in the beginning, it is believed that I now PURPOSELY hurt people. I love– yes, that isContinue reading “08.26.2013”
I knew you were trouble…
Insanity is defined as “doing the same thing over again and expecting different results.” By that definition, I am insane. That has been asserted many different times (mostly by males that I’ve dated). ……………… You say I’m acting crazy; yes, I agree. I understand why my actions have made you lazy. Your inner andContinue reading “I knew you were trouble…”
Silly brain.
I feel so silly. I hide things from “everyone else” who may possibly stumble upon that thing I hid. I will even go as far as making the hint to my password for a website one that is too difficult for “someone else” to crack the code. I’m not sure why I do this becauseContinue reading “Silly brain.”
EUREEKA!
So, I now understand what I was confused about in my previous entry. I wish people would stop thinking that I am “back to normal” completely (despite my assertions). I forget things easily…and when I am reminded, it sometimes takes a few DAYS for the full memory to return. Oftentimes, I remember what I thoughtContinue reading “EUREEKA!”
Revelation…
(I had trouble posting this last night…it was written on Monday October 8, 2012) I am obviously not the kind of company people wish to include anymore. Apparently, I am far too negative (something that I never was before my head injury) and instead of lifting people up, I bring them down. So much, thatContinue reading “Revelation…”
overkill
I now become way obsessed with ONE particular thing at a time. It is as if I cannot stop thinking about that thing. I do not rely on the “excuse” of having brain damage (nicer way to say it is, “a brain injury”…but most of the time, I don’t care about “sweetening” it for theContinue reading “overkill”
