Remembering What Was Lost: Regaining Memory After TBI

Support

Trymunity is here to help you and your loved ones cope with a traumatic brain injury. You’re sure to have questions, frustration, and feel overwhelmed. Someone you dearly care about has been altered by an injury to the brain and you want to help. We offer an online support network that can lead you to medical support and emotional support. When a traumatic brain injury strikes, it affects not only the victim, but everyone who cares about that person. Let us be an emotional support foundation, providing you with the resources you need on the road to recovery.

One of the most important tasks that will lie ahead is memory stimulation. Memory loss and other difficulties with cognitive functioning are common after a brain injury. Your loved one will need to train the brain to do what came naturally before. It will mean a concerted effort on the part of family and friends to engage a loved one’s brain once more, providing stimulation and thinking challenges. Use it or lose it is the philosophy.

It Is All About Cognitive Rehabilitation

When the brain has been injured, it is important to start making connections again and restore patterns of thought. Depending on the extent of the damage, it may mean re-learning cognitive skills all over again. Brain games, or brain building, is something that everyone can do to help the victim of brain trauma. There are a variety of enjoyable activities that challenge the brain. At www.brain-train.com, Brain Train cognitive retraining software is available with specific activities to assist those with brain injuries. There are also helpful insights on continuing rehabilitation. Lumosity.com is another excellent resource with tried and true memory games that result in memory recovery. The TBi National Resource Center recommends crosswords, word searches, computer games, and reading as well.
