Along with the loss of good mobility, the word-finding and brain fog have been my worst bugbears. Having previously been pretty eloquent and happy to take on any subject or argument I've (like you) been reduced to using shorter, more childish vocabulary in most conversations.

Words of choice are usually j-u-u-st out of reach ; it's so demoralizing.

On the other hand, I haven't yet tried pants on head to diffuse the frustration ! (yours are cool BTW). I'll let you know...... 🤗

You MUST wear pants on your head, always. It works for me 😁

Ah, no problem, I'm more than happy to help! I'm delighted my videos are a help to you, that's why I set out on the mission to make them. I'm 52 and it's 28 years post TBI for me and I too am the master of sarcasm and like to think I make people smile too...

Living with a Zen master (cat) and wearing pants on head. Definitely on the path to true enlightenment! 🧘‍♂️

Hi BaronC,

Thank you for posting your YouTube clip - it made me both laugh and cry! Love your analogy of living with brain injury 👍
