It has been two and a half years since the accident where I endured a TBI. Daily I struggle with cognitive and emotional ramifications of that brain bleed. I have been an accomplished musician and still play and sing but I am slower than before and my eyes, mind, voice and fingers often will not work together fast enough to keep up to tempo. It is at these times that frustration and sometimes depression set in. Talking back to negative thoughts is a constant effort, but a must to retain resilience. I swim a bit, walk and scare my family and friends when I take off on my pink bike without a helmet. Do not go far or fast however. I feel lurchy and off balance some when I go for a walk and have accepted that this is the new normal. Vestibular eye movement therapy is good for dizziness andMotion sickness which also is a given.
Keep at whatever motion is available to you and work your mind on reading, conversing, games or music. Even if you do not feel much progress, it is still working for you to keep strong and flexible and capable.
