Well, its was in January 1995, when I and my family were involved in an RTA, both my daughter and my self came out the worse for wear. Though the TBI, was some time coming to the surface, and has not been diagnosed, but PTSD and depression was. It took me about three years to research via the internet my problems. How I wish, I'd found this site before, it would have made a difference knowing I wasn't on my own struggling with these problems. I have found that I've struggled with tiredness and sleep disorder, and by recording the time when I felt I had to sleep, I found that my time clock was shifting by an hour every 12 to 15 day. Having found a way to stabilize this I feel I have some control over my new life again, it seams we all start off with a lot of anger, frustration and low self asteem, like a lot of others to reduce the frustration is to forgive oneself the mistakes which are a daily event, if the funny side of these can be seen, then I feel I can cope. In order to keep my head busy, I've started studying with Open University, and this year I'm taking a part-time course with Swansea College, I'm still surprising myself, but its been like self inflicted torture at time, but there's no gain without pain, I'm still here and looking for the positive way forward.
