Geez, i wish doctors would recognize the effects
of being kicked in the head, smashed by a baseball bat, falling from a building and cracking your head, and smashing your head against the wall since you were a kid, as possibly significant factors in causing brain damage. I have been reading on the net about certain personality and emotional disorders directly related to physical injury to the brain, especially the frontal lobes.Neurology is the area which could help with the detection of the formation of lesions as a result for example. Other damages can be detected in certain areas of the brain which are known to be responsible for certain functions.
Am I being presumptuous about brain injuries?
I am a bit peeved about applying psychotherapy to brain injury problems. How can you possibly look at the brain through talk therapy when the talk is already affected by such disorders; does it take extreme behavioural and physical expressions to recognize the link, such as blindness, mutism, amnesia, or antisocial behaviour;
I just don't get it.
