#complexdisability
A Brain Injury is a rather complex disability;
For many people after a brain injury, there appear to be no lasting effects from their injury.
The effects of #cognitive, #executive + #psychological deficits are, unlike those of a physical disability, often NOT VISIBLE
This ‘invisible’ disability confounds many people because often they lack the relevant knowledge + experience
"When someone begins to heal from living in survival mode,
they have a desperate need for honesty & authenticity.
They’ve had to fight for their ability to think clearly & know who they are.
It’s been quite costly.
They’re not willing to engage with those who won’t respect that."
