[QUOTE="DDD, post: 327409, member: 35"] You know that Rob remains in my thoughts and prayers. I do understand what you are experiencing and I'm assuming alot of Rob's feelings are like those of easy child/difficult child. I don't know if it is more depressing to know that the experts say three to five years passes before you "level". That, of course, is not the same as becoming the person you used to be but means you will have a good idea how your future will be. We had the fourth anniversary last month. There has been alot of improvement but he "pretends" to be sharper than he really is now and can pull it off when he stays sober and limits the time frame. Denial and fear are common side effects. easy child/difficult child took antidepressants for a short while. Since he has always had ADHD, the stimulant medication made a big difference for awhile. He then decided he didn't want to take them anymore because it "made him feel like a child instead of an adult" Yikes. If Rob is not in denial he might feel better using one of the message boards for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors. I learned alot there but easy child/difficult child never wanted to connect with other disabled people. Many hugs coming your way. DDD [/QUOTE]
