Friendships can change after brain injury for many reasons. Some people don't know what to say. Some stop inviting you because you can't be spontaneous. Some simply disappear when life gets complicated.

For me, I couldn't stop talking about what happened and how the changes were affecting me. Caregivers may grieve not only the person, but also the social life and sense of belonging they once had.

Things that are not helpful, thank you...

🧠💜 MYTH: BRAIN INJURY ONLY AFFECTS MEMORY AND THINKING.

FACT: Brain injury can affect much more than cognition.

Depending on the injury, a person may experience changes in balance, vision, sleep, energy, emotions, speech, sensory tolerance, movement, concentration, or behavior.

Two people with brain injuries may have completely different challenges—and those challenges can change over time.

That is why brain injury support should look at the whole person, not just memory or test results.

💜 The brain helps manage nearly everything we do. When it is injured, the effects can reach far beyond thinking.

Throughout October, BIAMT is continuing to replace common myths with facts, understanding, and better support for people impacted by brain injury across Montana.

Frontal lobe injury is damage to the front part of your brain that controls personality, decision making, emotional regulation, movement, and language.
The frontal lobe is the largest lobe and acts as your executive center. When it is injured, the effects are often behavioral and cognitive more than purely physical.
