Traumatic Brain Injury
TBI can be mild, moderate or even severe and symptoms may be instantly apparent or may develop days or weeks after the injury. Some symptoms (headache, dizziness, fatigue) are physical, while others may include memory, concentration, emotion or behavior issues. TBI patients may also have trouble moving or having problems with balance and vision.
The brain damage due to a TBI can be caused by a blow, bump or jolt on the head, or a blow that is a blunt force or penetrating cut (such as from a gun). The impact may cause the skull to break, causing bruising and bleeding of the brain inside the skull. The brain may then swell and push against the skull, causing a cut in blood flow. The injury could occur throughout the entire brain or just one lobe.
Some TBIs are classified as open while others are closed. The classification is determined by the extent to which the skull has been fractured and whether or not the skull was shattered or opened by the impact. TBIs can range in severity from a concussion all the way to a the coma. People who suffer from TBIs are at an increased risk of developing depression and PTSD, as well as other mental health issues. A few studies suggest that having multiple moderate to severe TBIs may increase the risk of developing dementia and other movement issues in later life.

PTSD can create problems at work, at home, and in relationships. It can also cause dependence, which includes alcohol or drug.

Antidepressants like selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs) can be beneficial for people suffering from PTSD. These medications can help control symptoms and make everyday activities more enjoyable.
Some research is investigating ways to prevent PTSD and examining the possibility that genes or the brain can influence a person's response to trauma. Other studies are looking at how a normal response to stress changes into PTSD and how to treat it earlier.
If you suspect PTSD, it is important to speak with a doctor.
