Do you find yourself grappling with persistent emotional challenges after experiencing a brain injury? Are feelings of anxiety, depression, or overwhelming stress weighing you down? You're not alone.
Join us for a special session dedicated to helping shed light on how trauma can impact you after a traumatic experience. The session will help you to explore common emotional symptoms that may arise post-injury, such as:
? Persistent feelings of fear or unease
? Intense mood swings or irritability
? Difficulty concentrating or remembering
? Intrusive thoughts or flashbacks
? Struggles with sleep or appetite
Gain valuable insights into how trauma can exacerbate challenges post-injury and discover practical tips for managing these symptoms effectively.
