personality changes
noise and light sensitivity
body and verbal ticks
fatigue
depression
He explored various other medical outlets and received little to no success in getting better. Derek discovered Cognitive FX through a good friend of his. He started looking into the EPIC Treatment program offered and reviewed some of the patient testimonials. Derek decided he would give Cognitive FX a try.

Hi really need help please
Hello, Could you tell me the criteria? Is this inpatient treatment?
I fainted at work from dehydration after a sickness bug. I was out cold and after a scan that night it transpired that I had fractured my skull and had a brain bleed so was put into an induced coma for two weeks and in hospital for six weeks altogether. I’m left with no smell and sequencing and attention memory problems. I’ve had fantastic support from the brain trauma team at our hospital. I’m from England.
I suffered my TBI in 1997 at age 26 in a bad car wreck as well as suffering several physical injuries.. I was in the hospital for 26 days and Physical Therapy for 18 months.. I attempted and failed at several careers post TBI due to my TBI symptoms-( Special Education Teacher,Car Salesman,911 Radio Dispatcher)... I struggle with repeating myself,poor multitasking skills,short temper,short term memory issues etc.. I also struggle with anxiety,depression and suicidal thoughts-( which was also worsened by my career failures)... I FINALLY recieved SSDI-( Social Security Disability Income after fighting the system for 15 years through 4 appeals and 3 attorneys... I am now driving for a car dealership part time and build model cars as a hobby and these activities have been very beneficial... These activities give my life purpose and have helped me deal with my TBI issues,PTSD issues and Self Esteem...
I wasted all my insurance on doctors that really don’t know anything about health. I’m glad cuz it made me learn how to heal myself! What was the worst thing I could have imagined became something truly beautiful and transformative.
Thank you Derek. I too am recovering from a blow to the head. As long as it doesn't cause more harm, I'm willing to try. But if I may, I want to disagree with only one point you made: That your brain is the most important thing about you. This is why: there are a zillion smart people that don't have to struggle to get words out. But not everyone has the humility, concern for others, honesty and perseverance that you have. It's called CHARACTER. "With the comfort we are comforted with, we comfort others" (2 Corinthians 1 Bible) is what came to mind as I listened to your story. I felt pretty down too. Your testimony could save a life per others that feel despair. Thank you again. You made a difference.
Such a similar experience. A mercy kill was what I was thinking the other day. Thank you for sharing this. I’m happy I found this today. It’s so lonely, and nice to hear another story. Such a similar story. Stay safe. Earplugs, glasses, ruined relationships….
God bless every human being that has ever experienced TBI. Outsiders looking in dont get it. It takes an insightful compassionate individual to remotely understand. ❤
I had nearly identical experiences regarding most of what this guy went through. It definitely feels like a prison and I had to figure out how to get back to my old self on my own, a 2.5 year journey this far.

Wow. I'm grateful I came across you. I did what the medical professionals said and they turned me into a mess. Like I was their Guinea pig. 😭💔
Im a anoxic tbi sufferer for nearly a year and he has the exact same story as I do. A gigantic list of symptoms, feeling tortured all day everyday. Im still suffering to this day but I have MeRT treatment scheduled but am interested in cognitive fx after watching this
How’d did Mert work out for you? Any benefits!?
My brother just called me stooped all the time and told me I'd never amount to anything. Idk why it helped but my hatred for him kept me going although it did set me back a lot
Try love and compassion toward your brother. Understanding others ignorance and criticism toward us in whom have had severe TBI that need what others cant give. ❤
Going through this with my mom
You are doing wonderful.
I’m very proud f you.
Lessons learned.
i had a stroke from being stranguled in august. my dad dropped me off at the ER and since then i cant function . for awhile i didnt shower or eat, i couldnt look up or around a room without crying in fear . i was raging and so brain dead.
How are you doing now? Any updates?
😭😭😭💔
Thank you for sharing your story, I can relate. Many blessings to you and your healing journey.
Thank you so much for sharing your story Derek. I relate to this so much after being severely injured last year.
How are you doing now?
With my concussion I'm finding that it brings me back to a childhood state in some ways.
It opens your mind to a time when you stopped growing emotionally. In a way I finding it is a blessing that may sound crazy but it's like a blow to the Head can awaken deeply entrenched emotions that need to be addressed. It's almost like some things that were buried come forth that you never seen before. That's a crazy comment but that's how it has worked for me
It's like a girlfriend who had a bad memory and she was golfing and somebody hit her head in the back in a certain spot and it returned all her memory. Crazy how the brain works we will never really capture the full understanding of how it was created..
For me it's the emotional part that's hard to deal with the comprehension when somebody speaks to me I have to tell them over and over please slow down please don't talk so fast please give me one sentence at a time. So that is the part of the brain that was damaged. And the other part well that's what we call an epiphany some things we just never seen about herself
Hi how are you?
Have you got emotions issues please reply me
@@faisalbi1330
Hi sorry just replying now.
Yes my emotions were crazy the first for five months I couldn't handle any one talkin to me too much it would just drive me crazy I couldn't handle a lot of things mentally and emotionally and so here fast-forward 11 months finally things are starting to come into place and even so I still have come to realize this is something that's not going to happen overnight but it does get better and I've increased my vitamins and I've done some research into proper nutrition I keep away from sugar and carbohydrates that are not good for you I've done a lot of research lately and you just got to be patient with yourself that's important
@@BL-rb7jm thank you so so much u replied me I need just help I am numb feelings like I can't feel emotions I had hydrocephalus cyst brain surgery my hospital misdiagnosed and wrong diagnosed me it's been 10months now I am physically back to normal just little fatigue but my memory n emotions problem I really want my all feelings back how was before I do recognize my all emotions but I can't feel them in my brain . please just advice me help me what I can do so I can feel my all feelings.i am just waiting and I try keep myself positive.

I wish my brother could participate in this. He's got an anoxic brain injury, but a lot of rehabs won't take him, because of his past addictions to heroin.
Mushrooms.
