I don't know what happened to me. I have no memory of how I got a severe head injury within broken bones and lots of skin and tissue lose. It took over a year to recover from all my injuries. I live alone and have no evidence of anyone being here to do this to me. I am so afraid all the time for fear it will happen again. I suffer from pain and panic attacks. Seizures from the head injury. I live in constant fear. I want it to all go away.

What country are you in. There would be some sort of Social Services available in Europe.

Are you coming out of heavy pain relief- this would account for your disorientation. I was like that once after a major accident - but had family to support me when I came round. ??

I gave a flippant reply answering another post from you- I hadn't read your earlier posts and didn't realise where it was coming from- sorry.

Keep strong- things will sort themselves out.

Can you remember anything at all from your previous life?

I remember everything about my life. I live alone and went to bed fine and came to 4 days later with many injuries. I just don't know how or what happened to me that caused my head injury, broken arm and large wounds all over me. There was tno evidence of a break in or anyone being here. That could only leave I must have gotten up and fell, hit my head and got back up and fell over and over and because I had a head injury didn't know I was falling and didnt feel any pain or know I was breaking bones and knocking holes in my body and tearing the house apart. It was a truly horrifying experience and now I am afraid of everything.

What medicines were you on before this happened.

Did you take any sleeping pills or meds for depression?

[Hidden in reply to Madlegs1]

I did take an ambien. I know I had gotten up once before and eaten in my sleep and did not wake up. It is possible I got up and ate and fell. I went off all my meds after that but could not stay off because the hospital put me back on them except for ambien because of the seizures I now have from the brain injury. I am sickened that this could happen and it will happen to others if it did to me. You would think the pain from one fall would be enough to wake you up but I had to have fallen at least 20 times because every room in my 3 bedroom home was torn up. It is very disturbing to me everyday.

Ambien is notorious for nocturnal shenanigans.

That would go a long way to explaining your situation.

Keep well.

I went home 3 days after my brainsurgery because medicare doesn't want to cover any more than that except at a rehabilitation hospital. I had my brother come and stay a week and homehealth care came 3 days a week. The holes in my hip and back took longer than the head injury to heal. I don't think my mind will ever heal.

What a very strange and terrifying experience. Had you had any experience of any other, less serious, incidents like this? Have any of the medical staff been able to suggest an explanation of any kind? What about seizures before this happened??

Oddly, I was sitting on the toilet during last night and assume I dozed off as the next thing I knew I was on the floor with a painful head, knee and leg where I had hit the outside of the shower, a stool and the floor! Less of a trauma than yours by a long way. But still.

Do you have any friends nearby who can support and reassure you? (I get the impression that you don't) And do you have any other family apart from your brother?

Do you belong to a church or another religious organisation? You really need a support network 'on the ground ' as well as us in the virtual world.

Peace be with you.
