After threatening my Trust with a medical negligence claim, I am finally getting 'treatment' that I have been fighting for, for three years - 5 years into this journey and suffered further concussion.
I now have zero connection to my 'emotional' self, I have driven myself into a perpetual cycle of symptoms because I continually forced myself to 'push through' them, and that 'activation' is now my default operating system. They left me to become 'this'.

Yep, I agree, fighting the system is more traumatizing than the brain injury itself. It makes you anxious and stressed and confused about your own sense of being human. I have a theory that much of the depression reported by people with BI is caused by the NHS and DWP because they are unfit for purpose.
