Today is the 12th anniversary of my accident. When I was 17, I was hit by a van taxi while crossing the street on a green light. I suffered severe TBI, I stayed in a coma for 9 days and was in critical condition for 72hrs. The doctors were preparing my family for my passing because it was highly unlikely that I would survive however I did. I lost 50% of my eyesight and deal with migraines, back aches and confusion. I lived in hell for 8 years following the accident but I didn’t give up. The doctors told me I would never walk again and last year I did a handstand. Time heals all, miracles exist and the best part about being human is how resilient we are. Keep moving forward, you are more than what happened to you. You are enough.

Went over a 4 to 7½ story cliff. Coma for 24 days. Brain bleed. When I awoke didn't know how to do anything physically but my long-term memory stayed intact so I could remember doing all of it. After I woke up I was discharged from the hospital in 29 days. No headache's ever before or after injury. Back to work and finished with outpatient therapy 9 months after discharge. No residual effects so far. Going on 34 years since accident. Life went back to normal for me.

Thank you for making this video, when I was 16 I hit my head and split it open and little did I know it was about to change the rest of my life. Its been 3 years since I hit my head and I still struggle to get through daily life with my TBI. Its a crazy feeling not knowing what's going on inside your body but after learning about TBI'S and the side affects it has, you start to relearn your body and learn how to deal with the constant Pain and dis comfort. For anyone dealing with a TBI out there, know your not alone!

How is he doing?

[@zapbeep8640]

He is doing pretty good. Miraculously. He woke up after 2 weeks with some extreme confusion. For the first week, he was unsure of the year, he wasn’t able to identify he was in the hospital, and he had to do some extensive PT to regain his ability to walk. The six months he has been home have been quite the journey as well. He is so convinced of things being different before he go into his accident. He thinks his wife has another sister, another daughter, he thinks he has 4 cars she sold while he was in “jail”, and he genuinely believe some doctor cast a spell that made him lose vision in one eye. Other than that, he’s alive, and that’s all we asked for when we didn’t know if he’d wake.

I’m coming up on my 11th anniversary from surviving my TBI. I wasn’t wearing a helmet when going 35 mph on a longboard (long skateboard) and fell into a coma and had to have immediate emergency brain surgery (Shout out to Tufts Floating hospital for children in Boston) for my brain surgeon who came in at 2 in the morning to save my life. It’s been a looooong road and I’m thankful everyday for that man.

Bless all who are afflicted with TBIs. I had severe tbi brain hemorrhage last Autumn, from car accident. I was knocked unconcious for two days And had internal injuries, and banged up externally. Couldn't walk for a mont. My mental health has worsened post TBI, neuropathy, sickening constant migraines , intense exhausting emotional roller coaster all the time, and so tired all the time-but sleep is a luxury now.. It really does change a person, I isolated myself for this entire year because I felt hope was lost and depression/anxiety/paranoia rules my life with a fist of cold steel. Repressed memories have also been triggered out of nowhere and they are waking nightmares that invade my mind. For the past two weeks I'm on the path of getting help from several resources, I hope to have full neurological exam done and other vital treatment soon.

I was unconscious for a time. Simply got stiches in my chin! They obviously didn't know about TBI back then! Anyway, about 4 years later I started to suffer seizures! My ability to recall information, and make conversation is also greatly affected! But praise GOD, I've been able to support myself and raise children with this disability! I still have difficulty with recall at will, and sometimes I cannot recall at all! Although, praise God, I haven't had seizures since 1998. God bless you all on your journey towards healing! 💜🙏💜

I have TBI and shrinking brain, my whole life I have been an active male, I live in Canada so hockey (I was a goal so pucks to the head) and lacrosse, very physical. I did search and rescue and have been in the military and seen combat. I wasn't diagnosed with TBI till this year. In the past I have had issues with my temperament, but for the most I believe I wasn't to bad. A year ago I had a kidney transplant, there was some issues during my surgery and was under for 12 hrs. About 6 months after the transplant I started to notice having a hard time concertation, forgetfulness, shakes and my moods started getting worse. At first they thought it was the meds but had to get testing done just incase it was early Alzheimer. Went it all came back it was TBI. They believe I've had TBI for awhile but the surgery activated it to the state I am now. Your video has answered a lot of questions for me cause I am on a waiting list to get into proper treatment. What do you think of stem cell therapy?

How's it going now?

[@ItsAireonna]

I dont really know my real accident. But what Ive been told is that my moms ex boyfriend Josh Tubes was babysitting me and he either kicked me or did something. What he did caused me to have a tbi and my brain was bleeding out. And I dont really remember none of it because I was 3 and now Im 15. I had to be put in a coma and had to get a feeding tube because I didnt know how to eat. I had to go to rehab and learn everything because I couldnt do anything. It sucks having a tbi, but Im very thankful I made it! Very blessed as well!!!

[@elleclayton3198]

When I was 5, a 5 pound weight fell off the top of my dad's garage shelves - not sure how high they were, but it fell a few feet, at least. It also came from the top of a box, so probably more like 4 feet. I think I actually remember the moment just before it landed on my head. The next thing I remember is being in my neighbor's van, and someone putting a towel on my head, which immediately turned blood red. The last thing I remember from that day was waking up while getting stitched up, and then passing out again. I had an extremely dysfunctional family, and have had a number of mild TBIs, too. I have had a lot of social and mental health issues throughout my life, and I've really worked on them, but it has always felt like a war I can't win. I didn't think the could be related to my head injuries until I was 35. When I told my PCP and them, she just said, "Yep, that makes sense." It's been really rough, too. In grad school, I wrote a paper about how something about me changed when I was a kid. Everyone loved me one day, and the next I couldn't do anything right. Even after examining what I went through as a kid, I still didn't connect the dots back to my first TBI. I'm pretty sure that my parents just pretended that there wasn't anything wrong so I wouldn't feel different, and I just assumed that the weight that landed right where my frontal lobe is didn't have any affect on my brain. I wish I could go back and get the help that 5 year old me needed to grow up without the problems I'm just now starting to understand.

[@recoveringsoul755]

Wow sad, a serious injury and doesn't sound like you got what you needed. They're always learning about new stuff with the brain so maybe they didn't know. I had a concussion when I was little, not sure exactly age. Then at 14 had a seizure and diagnosed with Epilepsy . Had many seizures until I got better about taking my medication, fell at some of those times and may have hit head again? Also car accidents. Then in mid to late 20's was strangled until loss of consciousness and a seizure, because why not add that into the fun? I'm just recently beginning to believe I may have autism which can be linked to Epilepsy. It affects every area of life, daily decisions, plans, executive function

Years ago I was a caregiver provider for a 30 year old male with "extreme" TBI. He had been in a car accident, as a passenger, on New Years Eve...the only person injured and spent over 6 years comatose. When he woke, his left side was pretty well shot. Left arm and hand crippled, left leg weak twisted, mute, eyes weak. memory long term was in and out, memory short term needed to be refreshed on a regular basis. He communicated with a box that had a keyboard, a screen, emited a tape out the end and a voice. a handy way of getting things done. We'd go to a sandwich shop and he'd hit on the waitresses with the box. He didn't let this slow him down. He said that he'd spent too much time "asleep". Had things to do. He started corresponding with a woman on the west coast and got her to fly hm out there. This was in New Hampshire. I wrote a couple of letters for him, his sister the rest. 'm writing a novel, now, with someone similar as the main character. The problem is that I need more to make"technical" information to make him credible. Any ideas?

My doctors tell me the odds of me living from the impact and my face being torn off should have, alone, killed me (which it did).

I suffered a TBI as the result of a violent bicycle accident in 1990. I went over the handlebars at 40 mph and landed on my right forehead, on pavement. I lost three teeth, suffered a right eye orbit fracture, inner ear concussions in each ear and the loss of much skin, and many stitches. I remember going for a bike ride that evening, then a vague memory of an ambulance and then being in the hospital, confused. My life was turned upside down. I went from being a successful Mechanical Engineer, to being unable to write my name. Yet my doctors told my wife I’d be fine in a few weeks. In addition, even though unable to drive, my employer forced me back to work much sooner than I should have. Personally changes, severe mental fatigue, confusion, memory loss, headaches, seizures and more all occurred within 3 months of the injury. I was emotionally crushed by the medical community as I was told by a neurologist; “I doubt if you even had an injury and if you did, it’s not near as serious as you say”. I was accused of faking it all, even though we had photos that showed severe facial damage, EMT reports and ER records. I struggled to work for years post injury until the daily head pain and mental fatigue made work impossible, along with serious suicide thoughts. Ironically I now like to write, where before I despised writing. 32 years later, almost no one in the medical community cares. I’m confused, crushed with daily head pain, severe mental fatigue and increasing memory issues. I am lost! 😢

On 14 December, 2014 I got a perforating wound to the left motor strip from a gunshot. Haven't had an MRI because the ballistic was still in the paracranium up until 8 February 2020. Fortunately, I was a dog walker before i got shot, so the muscle memory was strong enough to make me ambulatory after a few days of deliriously arguing with the nurses to let me out of bed.

I have headaches almost every day so I was doing research on TBI 2 try & find out if my tbi injury from 1969 had anything 2 do with my headaches & came across ur video. When I was 3 yrs old, I stepped out from behind a large pile of leaves on the side of the road that i was hiding behind right in front of a moving car. There was no time 4 him 2 stop 2 keep from hitting me. The car hit me on the left side of my head behind my left ear. I died 3 times - once in my mama's arms otw 2 the hospital then twice @ the hospital. They got me back, but i was in a coma for 6 months.The doctors were telling my parents that i wasn't gonna live but if i did live, i'd be a vegetable for the rest of my life. Changing me, feeding me, wiping drool off my chin bc i couldn't swallow, & 4get about me gettin married or having kids. Well, HERE I AM!!!! 57 yr old grandmother of 2!!! Mother of 1 daughter. I went thru 11th grade in school. Got my GED in 1991. My daughter was born in 1988. So!! Back 2 my question..... Can the tbi i got in 1969 from being hit in the head by a car be causing me 2 have headaches? I am wheelchair-bound, cannot walk, can only use my left arm/hand, have feeling throughout my body & am very creative & poetic.

I have a TBI myself , lost half or a portion of my brain . I was on a high speed chase with my best friend and we crashed into a tractor and trailer going 90mph. Unfortunately I lost my best friend he died on impact . His side of the car the left side was completely under of the tractor and trailer . My side the right side did not go under so I survived. Doctors told my mom I was going to be a vegetables for life . I was never going to move from this bed . And boom woke up 12 days later . And I do everything I did back then just can’t drink . It’ll kill me ..... literally.

I was hit by a car when I was 13 and had trauma to the back of my skull; I now experience deja vu every week. I immediately forget but remember every detail a year later. Even details of when I was as young as 1 years old. I never had an MRI/CT when I was hit, just an xray. Nothing was broken according to the x-ray, but the only brain imaging expert had his license pulled for extortion. I never did get any other medical imaging done since my accident. I am 49 now and am experiencing deja-vu weekly, monthly and sometimes will go two months without anything abnormal. I can read something and remember it immediately. I can read an article in the newspaper or a word in a book and forget it the next day. A year later, I can remember every detail of the newspaper and book and it's contents.

Slips on ice so fast rarely is person able to break or slow down fall. 90% of time person will deny any injury because they are hyper embarrassed. I have personally watched many of these falls. They are more severe looking than NFL players taking a hit. Like I said biggest problem is person denying any injury.

When I was 21 I was hit in the back of my head by a baseball bat. Broke my crushes my skill and the ground fractured it in the front. Drs said they couldn't believe I lived. But living was not a blessing, it's a struggle everyday. I don't have aim, but it messes up my mentality. I feel disconnected from everyone, I feel alone, I struggle being in public. Before my injury I was a football player for 14 years, wrestled voted prince and king high school days because I was. Outgoing energetic wperson who involved myself in everytjing. Now I cant do anything of the sort. I feel pushed away. I know how I use to be and get mad I can't get like that no matter how hard I try. I see people avoiding me now because of my mentality.

In high school I was able to get through classes and life, but college changed all of that. I have pretended that that part of my life never happened to be, so I never allowed myself to believe that I was disabled. But I am, I see that every day when imin class, and when everyone can keep up with the teacher. My mind has a rally hard time comprehending difficult topics, and so i need to go really slow.

I am a direct impact survivor from a motor vehicle accident/MVA, of a pickup truck impacting my side of the vehicle at 53mph. My GCS score was 3. Mainly right side injury, with some fragments of or shards of skull placing themselves in the left side of my brain. My jaw was broken, all ribs broke, collapsed lungs, pseudoanurism of my aorta, and bilateral pelvic fractures/torn sciatic nerve on my right side. I have upper left spasticity, and H.O./heterotrophic ossification in my left shoulder, arm and hand. This occurred on 03/25/2006. Thankfully the ICU that treated me had a Licox tool/machine to help relieve intracranial pressure. I walk with a cane, and see a chiropractor twice a week, and workout (walking, stretching, body weight squats/deadlifts, planks, etc…). I’m currently employed with a nonprofit who has contracts with the government while employing the disabled population. Through the 8-months of rehab, (after I woke up from a 6-week coma, and transitioned through 3-different rehabs until my family found the best option), I’ve learned things about my TBI that are still held onto by me. This is one of those experiences that, I would like to recommend to anyone who has the opportunity, lol… in all seriousness, I feel that, through relearning all of the basics in life, after having lived for 31 years, (my 31st birthday happened while in coma), I have an understanding that is greater than what I believe I would have if I was not injured. It seems as though I have a more nuanced understanding than the majority of folks who I interact with. Then I remember that I have a head injury, and I accept. I accept that fact, and remain determined to live the best life that I am capable of. We’re all living a life that is so profound, that from my perspective, it appears that almost everyone else shows signs of trauma. The majority of the trauma that we inflict, is typically from internal choices/voices that we choose to hear, ignore, or listen very carefully to. This is what I believe is the root cause to the majority of our suffering. The meaning of life is to find enjoyment in all that we do. The best way to find enjoyment in the ‘mundane,’ is to reframe the situation, alter the perspective from which we are observing the outside world. The more ironic point of this, is that we all have the power to do this, by recognizing that it’s, “all in our heads.” Recognize as much as you can, with a trust in your subconscious mind to be able to communicate with our conscious mind when we need the information that the subconscious has figured out for us. Trust in the processing of the mind and human consciousness.

[@timjohnson1199]

Thanks for that overview, it kind of tied things together. About 40 yrs ago I had a car accident and TBI and then surgery for an AVM and then to install a drain/shunt. Stressful. Took a year or two to recover and was told I wouldn't walk or work again. I was treated like a child (stupid child). Anyhow that motivated me and I built myself up then got employed (eventually) representing different companies traveling internationally working on their equipment. Presently work at a National Laboratory. Did fine till I got married fairly recently (mistake) and had a couple of seizures due to anxiety, sleeplessness, and after some alcohol consumption. Separated, no more alcohol, getting better. Lonely, nobody to share with. Kinda funny, years ago riding my dirt bike, hard, and went over a cliff and broke my pelvis but had on a very good helmet that took some damage (landed on rocks) but zero damage to head. Still wear a good helmet when I bike today. Anyhow, I could really use some camaraderie and support. Any way to connect to TBI support groups? Who's out there?

I sustained a TBI in 2014 ... on the freeway going to a job site my vehicle was hit by another....the last 10 years of my life have been a nightmare I can't escape from...accused of faking my symptoms,being dramatic, determined to be insane by my own lawyer and family...left to fend FOR MYSELF IN THE STREETS.... 2022 I had cervical fusion as life saving intervention as my whiplash and it's symptoms never was addressed...by anyone. Wish to God I had died that day.

[@finneganflaherty2699]

Hey, it sounds a lot like that's self-harm and it's not really good for you. If you have someone you trust, you may want to talk to them about this

[@somyamishra3884]

@@finneganflaherty2699 thanks finn for acknowledging this and yes i am working on myself to stay positive and to believe that nothing matters more than my body and my physical and mental health hurting myself is really a bad idea. meditation is the best way to learn self control ❤️🇮🇳

Ih yeah, I used to punch my self until I’d start crying. But I haven’t in about a month, that’s probably because my mom saw bruises and I didn’t like pretending that I had no idea why I had bruises on my face... So the moral of the story is not to punch yourself if you don’t like lying lol. (All jokes aside, this is a true story).

[@aligamiles]

somya mishra I’d recommend meditation. I don’t know all of the stuff about it, but what I do know and mostly why I started meditating is because you can have lucid dreams easily and it is really healthy and stuff. lol I sound so uninformed but seriously, meditating is, as they say “that’s where it’s at”.

Don’t listen to these jokes people are making. Depression is real. Talk to a friend or someone else that might understand

2018 I was involved in a motorcycle accident I got cut off and they slammed on their brakes I was writing a 950 lb Harley with nowhere to go I ended up clipping the right rear quarter panel and being thrown off my bike, as I was picking myself up off the freeway I happen to get run over by a truck I caught the tire with my head and I suffered damage to my frontal lobe my temporal lobe my occipital lobe and the back of my brain, they had to perform a craniectomy to allow for brain swelling bleeding and cerebral spinal fluid, I now have a plastic plate in my head, a VP shunt, partial paralysis in my left side, and I am now deemed legally blind because I have extremely low vision. But with that being said I am trying all that I can to get back to work and one of the biggest struggles I had to deal with was being intubated for 7 months with a trachea in my neck, they wouldn't give me physical therapy so I had to teach myself how to eat, how to drink, how to change my clothes, how to walk, how to shower, basically everything. The neurosurgeon and the neurologist said it would take at least six to nine years for me to get some semblance of my life back. But do shear Force and determination I did it in 9 months. Believe it or not I am currently working on getting back to work if that makes any sense, they didn't think I was going to live through the night and here I am working with the chop saw a drill and impact driver belt sander drill press wood lathe and not to mention since February of 2019 I have done 10 brake jobs on 10 different vehicles, I'm currently going through a divorce because when I was in my metaphorical deathbed my wife was in somebody else's bed with her ankles to her ear lobes and she conceived his child. In all honesty her doing that has given me hope and freedom. I have a lot of things that have happened since 2018 that have changed my life for the worst, but as long as there's air in my lungs and blood in my veins I have to make the best of what I have and I am going to make damn sure that I do. Thank you for making this video and giving me some clarity on my injury because when I was in the state that I was in I had no say in my medical proceedings and I was completely unaware of what was happening because of the medically induced, they had me in and all the opioids for the pain. So seeing videos like this are very good for somebody in my position so I have a better understanding of what I have to deal with and live with, sorry if there is any grammatical or punctual errors and what I wrote here, because of my vision I have to use talk to text.

I was punched 3 times in the face and had a small brain injury. It took a whole year to fully recover from it. I was always tired, forgetting things so easily, thinking so slow, etc. I can’t even grasp how people with a massive brain injury survive and go through with their lives.

We live like garbage. Many of us want to commit suicide, but we do not want to leave our families
