Summary: coping?
Review: This book was recommended to me by a referral clinic as one of two volumes that are helpful in explaining brain injury.Coping with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury is an excellent and informative book. It is very difficult to find a comprehensive explanation for the symptoms of tbi much less a solution for dealing with the problems. Before coping can begin identifying the problems is necessary. This volume provided enlightenment and hope to me where years of seeking treatment have left a sense of doubting my own perceptions and reality and sense of self. Just to know "yes, this IS happening to me" has made a world of difference in the experience of recovering in what is often a lonely, frustrating and disappointing journey. This account by someone who has experienced brain and psychic trauma has a quality of truth that cannot be mistaken.

Summary: Mild TBI only- don't get this book for a glimpse into...
Review: where to go for a more serious TBI. The book is sufficient and does have some resources listed for those who have or have been affected by someone with a MILD TBI. It has short snippits of others who have TBI which leave the reader longing for more detail- patricularly about outcome. This is not the book for those with anything more than a MILD TBI- for those with mild TBI you should find some useful info, if not solace that you're not alone, but for those needing more specific info on what to do after the dust settles, particularly with a more serious brain injury this book is not for you.
