Dealing with Traumatic Brain Injury and Its Effects on Relationships

How can I deal with a traumatic brain injury? It has caused a lot depression, anxiety, memory loss, and paranoia( having suspicions of loved ones). It has ruined my relationship and drove people away. 75% of my brain has atrophy. Does anyone else have this?

Hi, I've had a TBI for 21 years. It changed almost everything in my life, and yes - depression, anxiety, amnesia, brain fog. I don't have atrophy however, but I have a suggestion. Have you tried a support group? They've been life changing for me in the most positive way. There are even some great online ones if you're like me and can't drive. Good luck, stay strong!
