Hello Danny, my son is still struggling, 15 years later. A 4-wheeler accident at 17. I don’t have much advice except what tends to help my son lately is hope, reimagining his life. He was young, but very talented in writing, music and art. A lot of it came back after about 5 years, and was even better than before. He had another wreck at 27, cervical neck sprain….that changed everything to even worse. He is now practicing a new art, tattooing. I think it’s good that it’s not something he ever tried before, but related to his past interests, because he can’t compare it to how well he did it before. I don’t know if it will ever come to actual income, but just spending time doing it and dreaming, envisioning the possibility has helped (with counseling). He rejected counseling until 6 months ago. It really is helpful. It can be very depressing. Glad you reached out.I’m new here, wish I could have found a TBI only community right after 1st wreck. I think things would have went a little better with (easier accessible) support.Best wishes!
