Does life get any better with a tbi after 2 1/2 years
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
HOPE SO: Tbi's gradually improve over the first 18-24 months following the original injury, but spontaneous brain recovery thereafter is minimal without some assistance by a rehab specialist. There are therapies, medicines, and ways of coping and dealing with issues which can dramatically improve quality of life.

KEEP TRYING!!: Very difficult road after a tbi. Not sure what happened to you or the severity. Keep your brain active and work your brain like it is a muscle. Read, stimulate, exercise, do math, play cards, play games anything to keep all the different parts of your brain lit up. May also want to consider medications and there are a lot of possibilities depending on the symptoms. Even stimulants can help.
