My DRs told me any mental game. When I talked to TBI centers, I was surprised at how willing they were to share information since I didn't have any insurance. And support groups. Two I think I remember were brainhq and cogmed?? Someone told me crosswords, find a work, sudoku, Facebook games like Wordblitz (doesn't matter if you are bad at them, just keep try to improve.) Placement games even if it's just reorganizing/stacking your dishes and glasses, clothing drawers, fridge, garage, etc.
@ricj Ric's idea sounds helpful. I've had incidents where I hear gibberish and really have to focus. Few weeks ago, it happened again and I texted the man's daughter he was with to make sure he was ok - but it was me (thought he was slurring/having TIA). Music does have a massive effect on the body.
@gablou17 The first year, electronic devices were a nightmare for me. I would take me a week to compose an email and it would still be messed up. At two years, I still deal have issues with grammar and electronic devices, with wrong words popping, saying the opposite and jumbling thoughts together at times. Like my brain is analyzing everything that is on an old album with millions of scratches in it, and keeps glitching and jumping around.
@patty78962 Interesting. Since 2003 I am unable to write an e-mail requiring specific thoughts with explanations. I acquired a public quietness. Pre-accident i did much public speaking. Post accident I am unable to speak to two or more people. In a group I am quiet. I ask a brief question when I want them to explain or elaborate.
