I have all the goody symptoms and comorbitities first childhood depression, anxiety, neglect, abuse, physically knocked unconscious 2 times before age 7 by caregiver, second was perifial neuropathy third was TBI and severed thorasic t7,8,9 spinal cord, fourth was another TBI and cervical forminial closures of the nerves, now everything you said is 100% correct sir and I certainly appreciate your expertise in this because I am that model that you're describing I do not have I have the irritable factor and my doctors have said that's probably because of the TBI but I still have the complex PTSD which is definitely a comorbidity depression anxiety childhood neglect abuse physical once again comorbidities but the other occurrences in my life occurred out of just bad luck bad wrong place wrong time the first TBI was caused from an industrial accident the second was caused by another tree falling on my frontal cortex which I'm assuming I don't know if it's the orbital or the other one you're talking about but CBT EMDR light therapy and both of these gave me the ability in a very short period of time to realize when I was dysregulating because of the comorbidities so once I realize that that's what it was doing I continually worked on a calmer approach and it worked for me now I am still in great disbelief of all the prescription medications that I'm on which I am going for another evaluation with a neurologist because my PCP has me on most of the prescriptions that I'm on however I will tell you the times that I have been let's say overly aggressive or I don't even call it aggression I never want to punch things or lash out it's more of irritability for me and when I get strong doses of the irritability I just have the ability to calm down especially now because after the first TBI I was unbelievably forgetful and very irritable fortunately I was working building new homes and also after the first TBI I seem to take a third or a halftime longer than I did before the TBI taught me simple ways to control the fight flight freeze of CPTSD. I have been on steroid packs I have been on two of the other drugs that you mentioned that actually exist for baby terrible things about TBI and CBT helped a lot and I am on 4000 mg a day of neurontin which is in my opinion way too much I also was on a antipsychotic ambilified that was way way too much It had me literally not even being able to think anymore once these were weened down properly. A lot of the really bad bad symptoms of TBI went away. And I am still currently on I don't want to tell you this but I will 13 prescribed medications a day I think that's entirely way too much and I'm getting ready to have a serious talk with my PCP and my neuro doctor about these issues because I feel You know they say if you have a gut feeling about something usually your gut feeling is right My gut feeling is I know I'll never ever be able to cure any of the stuff but I can heal everyday from it or should I stay healing that's what I meant and thank you so much for your work on this I go to your channel here quite often and you put insights on it that are trust me very very true I've been living with this chronic pain and all of the other mentioned above things for 30 years 30 years has taken its toe on my brain on my body on my psyche on everything but I'll be damn if I'm going to give up now I've come a long way and it's because of channels like yours here that give me hope and you give other people hope I'm not going to accept the fact that people are going to look at me like I'm a beast because I'm supposed to be a beast because of my issues I would rather them look at me and say this guy's not that way at all there's hope there's chance and there's this wonderful thing called trial and error and I've been to the trials and I've been through the errors but I've never in 30 years done anything to physically hurt anyone and of course myself I mean I mentally have hurt myself way worse than I have physically hurt myself and I'll admit the first 8 months after the first TBI It was the hardest 8 months of my entire life adjusting to a TBI and then I had another TBI 14 years later of the front right side above my eye on my forehead what's required 58 staples to sold me back up and it literally the skin from the laceration was hanging in my right eye I couldn't see and I was also unconscious on the rural ambulance ride that took 32 minutes to get to the rural hospital in the middle of nowhere thank you sir have a good day You're a good man!! People like you create a lot of hope and people like me and that's important The last thing I want to hear is a doctor especially sitting across from me telling me that I have to be a mean angry aggressive person that wants to fight everybody if I've got TBI that's just not true!!! Peace out!!
