This is fascinating. I had a traumatic brain injury in 2004 when I fell off a horse face first into concrete. When I tell people I don't remember any events from that day, or the few days I spent in the hospital, I don't feel like they believe me, like amnesia is only something that happens in soap operas. I also experienced the panic response you talked about in the hospital. I had to be restrained because I kept ripping out my IVs and breathing tube. I had a nun come to visit (I went to Catholic school) and I was told I gave her the finger.
Your story is so much worse than mine and I'm glad you made it through to talk about your experience. Do you have any pictures of your recovery process? Are you at all a religious person? Did this experience change that at all?
