Not entirely due to Kevin's fault, our interview wandered around a lot, with more focus on sports than brain injury symptomotology. That was partially due to technical problems we were having with the filming, but also because I wanted to explore Kevin's cognitive strengths when we were talking about sports. However, such rambling, logorrheic conversation did make it difficult to cover our core list of topics. Before Kevin's concentration completely collapsed, I turned to frontal lobe issues.
I'm going to try to get us back on focus here. Do you have trouble focusing?
I don't think so.

In a nutshell, a frontal lobe injury makes you feel stupid just STUPID!! sorry for saying that,but that's what it really is, this is what I have been dealing with the last 7 years since I've had it, slowness in processing new information, finding it hard to learn anything new and understanding others and their speech. I can't even save up a song in my mind, that sucks! It's like you are in a state where you body is there but your soul somewhere out of touch.
Are you sure you had a brain injury?
Yeah I'm sure, then what do you call that?

I have TBI I was driving and the vehicle I was driving struck a tree at 55mph my wife was killed and my head hit the windshield causing my brain to hit the inside of my skull giving me contutuons on my frontal lobes I'm not as severe as this gentleman but I'm hard to live with I hate the way my emotions react and my filter is totally gone
my TBI was 9 months ago. Motorcycle accident. While I am not as severe as this survivor, like you, this is incredibly hard to deal with and fight through. Never knowing is so hard.
Do you guys manage to plan your day and get everything done as planned for the most part? Or do you have difficulties in pursuing your tasks?
I definitely struggle with both. It's very difficult to plan anything and it's another issue to execute those plans. Toss in the difficulty with my memory it's a pretty defeating thing to deal with.
oh my god, im sitting here in tears over the same shit, i hate the way i react, im impossible to live with, and the worst part is, they dont realize im screwed up, they think im totally fine and just,, angry i guess. i had a sub arachnoid Hemorrhage in 2017. today, 3 years later, im just now realizing how fucked up i am. ive been in dnial
@@lostways8196 your not indinial it happend to you, you either grow with what you have or you let it eat away at you. all you can do now is improve on something you never seen coming, you will amaze yourself the brain is such a powerful instinctive thing it will work more to keep you alive and not only that the things you think about are more power because of yours and my traumatic bleeds
Thank you for sharing this very important video about TBI. I'm a mess and now understand it is not me it is my injury that has left me impaired and can not function very well.
Eric Baxter What exercises have you created to cope?
Keep the heart strong buddy
I've had a number of head injury and one severe forehead injury landing on my forehead from almost 10ft in the air. I have the hardest time telling a story or doing things sequential. I can't talk at length about something. things get jumbled in my head
Had a motorcycle wreck in florida had a dai tbi had frontal lobe damage temporal lobe damage I can’t remember people at all emotions are out of control can’t keep focus everyone says you look fine seem fine but no one knows how much effort it takes to seem okay its exhausting having no fear of anything is a bet weird but definitely make impulsive on the spot decisions
Hi i'd like for someone to help me with my brain issue.
I have a tumour in the frontal lobe of my brain also had 13 bleeds in this section abd other close parts of the brain. i've been dealt with in the complete wrong manner and has had the wrong adduication given is there any advice or some sort of anything thay can help me thanks. I really took to this video
I can't take it anymore
Bob Street use sticky notes to help you remember...my grandson forgets to close cabinet doors...turn off lights...There are many strategies Dear. Do not give up! The brain is a marvelous computer that can repair itself. Stay healthy! No substance abuse! And God can heal any affliction. Trust me!💖
@@brigittebeltran6701its nice to be hopefull but it cant repair itself from eaverything. I have traumatic encephalopathy syndrome and frontal lobe damage and im taking multiple medications to slow the degeneration, but it doesnt do anything it's like i can litterally feel myself gettung dumber and dumber and diminish more and more daily. I wish your grandson improves and all the best. i'd imagine his injury in a way is not as complicated as mine. Suprised i stayed focused long enough to compose this to be honest. But yes point being there are some degree's that can be improved and there's cases like mine where the doctors up front and tell's you right now theres sadly nothing they can do and that's just the truth.
When being assessed with a head injury/mTBI, why do doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists, and neurologists testing cannot seem to differentiate between frontal lobe damage, PCS and ADHD? I can see the frontal lobe damage on my MRI with my skull fracture, doctors said my symptoms are ADHD, I don’t understand why they are misdiagnosing my mTBI🤕
Sorry for you loss. 🙏🏼
Stay strong 💪🏼 as possible.
What I see is here is he's "Flooding"... A few more questions it's a good chance he willhaving a seizure. Iv done it.... Weird but real.
When I was about 5 or 6 my brother accidentally hit me in the head with a golf club I needed some stitches but now looking back it’s like wow maybe that’s why everything in my life happened like it did
I'm not ok I can't do anything alone I'm so screwed up I want to just die. I have no help no family no friends no nothing anymore deserted by everyone even my daughter and mom and sister
Please seek medical help, there is always someone that can help you! Don't lose hope!
Frontal Lobe Injury
Bob Street you will get better. God bless you.
Be happy you woke up in a fucking bed under a fucking roof of a fucking house with fucking lights and water on. When there’s bums in the streets with their legs missing living under a fucking bridge. Appreciate what you have. I can tell your white.

What about the damage on frontal lobe and Center? Anxiety , Depression, social anxiety , Isolation, concentration issues, judgment problems ...
Less leading questions....
Does anyone know of weed usage correlates with how young you are and how it can damage the frontal lobe? I seem to be experiencing some of the symptoms this man has (albeit not as severe) but definitely to a point where it's noticeable. Sometimes I zone out mid convo and completely forget what we are talking about. I also have trouble remembering certain words(also in mid convo) that I have known for years. I'm 16 and have been smoking daily for about 9 months. I quit a few days ago because I have noticed a significant decline in my memory function.
Same here bro , it’s just the sad part that you have to stop smoking weed even though the feelings are quite great but if you want a better life for yourself . It’s best to quit and do some meditation . And take it seriously . Weed or any type of smoke affects your brain & nerves especially at a young age . I’m young myself but had to find out the hard way . Now I have to deal with decisions that I made in my past . But for every dark night there’s a brighter day. Stay safe and healthy my brother .
cannabis cannot do that. if you really think its what your smoking, the cannabis is likely treated with bad pesticides and fungicides that contain chemicals like eagle 20 that turn into cyanide when combusted. they are cheap and crooked growers use it. be careful. weed itself wont do this tho, after my strokes i smoked to get off meds, i smoke a gram of 85% oil a day, but i dont take pain pills. no ill effects, in fact some strains aid me in thinking more clearly and getting up and out.
I was hit with a metal bat on my front head at six years old.
I'm sorry to hear that. How are you dealing with that now?
I was pushed into a metal pole from behind from a school bully, I did not see or know who actually did it to me at the time.. I have empathy for you, I was also 6 years old.❤️
A PILLAR OF HOPE Manaka the same type of situation happened with me aswell but went a bit differently. me and a few of my cousins were playing tag in the basement when we were kids, I tried catching up too one of them but I ended up running straight into a pole. I think it fractured half of my skull, I didn't get it looked at or anything till this day but I think my prefrontal cortex or lobe.
Many other emotions aswell
You can't answer the questions because you can't remember anything! I hate these questions. It's not fair. Follow the guy around and make observations and don't judge.
When he's asked to come up with an example, whether he is able to or not is what the doctors are trying to figure out. People with frontal lobe damage can recall that they're having difficulties but can't recall a specific example. Because forming ideas is a role that the frontal lobes, he's actually very absent minded without realizing it.
I don't think that the doctor 's intention is to belittle or ridicule the patient. He needs to ask the questions in order to a) get the an idea of the patient's situation and b) make observations about the way he answers them for additional information. The doctor is not judging the patient, but trying to diagnose his current condition.
I had a frontal lobe injury as a 6 year old had to get surgery to have some brain matter removed and can barely remember my childhood. My mom had to get me a journal as a kid just to keep memories and photos. It's really hard to live with this. Yes I can function but it's really hard at times. There are headaches I get that are really painful. Most jobs won't hire me. My husband has to care for me which is difficult on him too. Maybe I'm better off dead.
no :'( you're not better off dead. I love your husband who takes care of you. I'd help you too without make it a problem
be kind with yourself
So glad u shared.. did u have to relearn to feed yourself, and usethe toilet, and brush your teeth or u remembered all that?
Did u/ do u take omega 3 and other supliments to help?
I am asking bc my son is going on 4 and i dont know what he is feeling
I was born in B-More City in 1997. I was in a car accident a month before I turned 19 and woke up from a coma in a neurological rehabilitation center. I broke all of my long bones and had bleeding in my right frontal lobe. Living is so hard. My doctors are trying to get me off the meds. When they do, I am going to get addicted to heroin. I know it. I am 22 and I know that is how I will die within 5 years. I should not have survived
@@jordantaylor7439 Don't be so hard on yourself either Jordan, hope you're doing ok at the minute
Same
Fuck I’m not this bad but I think I have a little bit of brain Trauma but unfortunately my speech is limited in my decisions are fucked and I don’t mean my speech is limited in that kind of way where I can’t use words correctly I slur when I talk and I curse like a sailor I think it’s my vocabulary that’s limited I seem to use a lot of words with four letters or six letters I think I have a problem with anger issues and some really really fucked up outlooks on life and opinions
Are you me?
The frontal lobe is a muscle in the brain that contracts fear. If his stopped working then he has nothing to fear.
That makes sense. I have all my lesions in frontal lobe. I don't know when to walk away and have fear til it's too late. Hence my current broken finger
Yeah because fear is the evolution of mankind it helps your fight or flight system activate for moments like that (Adrenaline levels)
i think the trauma hit more than the pre-frontal cortex
Doesn't the frontal lobe only control your emotions.
The amygdala has a larger role of emotion which is apart of the Limbic system deep in the medial temporal lobes. A larger role of the frontal lobes is inhibition of emotions and behaviors.
Infernal Diatribe but he doesnt percieve fear, correct?
The amygdala mainly perceives fear
idiot
I think he can heal that with cognitive behavior therapy
Improvements in cognition require an overall intact brain. Lesions, injuries and disruptions in the brain result in various problems that are not caused by the mindset or attitude of the affected person, but by the organic damage that persists in their central nervous system.
CBT tries to correct the mindset and attitude of people, but in people with physical damage to the brain, it's not a question of mindset and attitude to begin with!
