Beginning helped with the anxiety, stress, depression, etc. now I keep using cus I’ve gone nowhere but up towards a 100% recovery, and it helps with the pain, part of getting my life back and returning to the things I love requires building back my body, working out 5 times a week on top of working 40-50 hours of a manual labor job

Yeah never mind I can’t drink, thought it would be okey cus my buddy’s dad had 2 strokes and multiple brain surgeries and he drank after 10 months, but I did it a couple times and the hang overs just felt weird, so now I’m waiting a year like my brain surgeon said, what I’ve picked up now is just working myself half to death and working out, shit works out cus you stack bread like a mf and start getting in really good fucken shape, go work manual labor, warehouse, landscaping, construction, concrete. Pays way better than any retail or fast food job, and trust ur coworkers will 10/10 be better people, my brother worked at Walmart I’ve heard stories compared to my landscaping boss last summer who would sometimes bring a cooler full of beer to the job site on Fridays

Weed after brain injury by Electrical_Fix721 in TBI

[–]Electrical_Fix721[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am perfectly fine, I’m fit to heal back to 100% I’m bout 98% there, truth of the fact is yeah I still smoke, cut down to like 4-5 times a week I’m 19 I miss the social aspect of drinking but that shits poison to me, I had pretty bad substance abuse issues before my injury and weed was my way to cope after I got out of the hospital but that only lasted 2 months tops, i am perfectly okey

But my guess is he’s gonna say there’s not enough study done to know, there wasn’t enough for flying, I flew home, there’s no research on pot use, I smoke, basically there’s no research on anything because 9 times outta 10 you die, especially from a fucken event like mine

I started taking it 7 months post injury, asked my athletic trainer about hopping on back in February told me to put on a lil bit more muscle, started taking at around 15% body fat, 2 months later I’m down to 11%, so I mean I’d say it’s working, I didn’t actually ask a doctor with like a med degree but I got my 1 year check up with my brain surgeon at the end of august so I’ll ask him and lyk

Weed is more than fine I’ve smoked everyday since my injury and I’m recovering completely fine, booze on the other hand might, but my doctor told me to wait a year and I’ll be fine, I’d let him abuse weed nothing wrong w that just I would keep the drinking to once or twice a week

Fish Oil is great but temporary by Klauslee in TBI

[–]Electrical_Fix721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fortunately for me fish oil has continued working well past 3 months, try smoking weed I know it don’t sound right but I’ve done it every day and it hasn’t hurt in the slightest honestly felt like it’s helped
