Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many individuals who have suffered brain injuries often experience emotional seizures, which are uncontrollable verbal and physical outbursts resulting from frustration. These seizures can be distressing for all parties involved. However, it's important to note that there is hope for managing them effectively. Following a traumatic brain injury (TBI), it is common for individuals to exhibit behavioral issues. The injured brain's ability to handle frustration becomes severely limited, and TBI survivors face daily challenges in coping with the healing process. Consequently, an overwhelmed brain can easily lead to sudden outbursts, whether verbal or physical. By identifying and addressing triggers, it is possible to significantly reduce the occurrence of these emotional seizures. In the book, we explore various triggers that commonly provoke emotional seizures and provide practical advice for effectively managing them. This resource aims to equip individuals with tips and tricks to better navigate and alleviate the impact of emotional seizures on their lives.

Download or read book Anxiety and Mood Disorders Following Traumatic Brain Injury written by Rudi Coetzer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there are many excellent texts addressing cognitive impairment and behavioural difficulties and on rehabilitation associated with traumatic brain injury, few textbooks specifically address the most common emotional problems that can have such an adverse effect on rehabilitation and outcome. Uniquely this book deals exclusively with the identification and psychotherapeutic management of mood and anxiety disorders after traumatic brain injury. Furthermore, a systematic approach to identifying and diagnosing anxiety and mood disorders is followed throughout the text. As well as providing an introduction to anxiety and mood disorders after traumatic brain injury, it provides a psychological perspective on their evolution and management. It is aimed at a range of professionals in training (or those responsible for providing training in psychopathology, neuropsychology and psychotherapy), as well as those who may have an interest in working with the type of patients with anxiety or depression, commonly seen in post-acute brain injury rehabilitation settings. Case studies, summaries and suggested references for further reading are used throughout to facilitate understanding and teaching where relevant.

Download or read book The Neuropsychological Mechanisms of Avoidant Coping Post Traumatic Brain Injury written by Katherine Maria Krpan and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people who sustain traumatic brain injuries (TBI) have poor psychosocial outcomes. Previous research has indicated that poor outcomes are related to the use of avoidant coping following TBI, although the mechanisms of this relationship are not clear. The major pathological consequence of TBI is damage to the frontal lobes and/or their connections, resulting for most people in executive and/or affective dysfunction. The purpose of this dissertation study was to delineate the neuropsychological, psychiatric, personality and physiological mechanisms of avoidant coping following TBI. Controls and people with TBI completed the Baycrest Psychosocial Stress Test (BPST), where coping behaviour was observed directly, and physiological measures were recorded. Participants also completed a neuropsychological test battery, and a series of questionnaires assessing coping, psychiatric status, personality and outcomes. There were no significant differences between groups in self reported coping, However, the control and mild TBI group engaged in more planful than avoidant behaviour on the BPST. As a group, individuals with moderate-to-severe injury, in contrast, engaged in more avoidant than planful behaviour. However, analysis of individual differences in coping behaviour within the moderate-to-severe group revealed a bimodal distribution, allowing classification of people in this group as 'planners', or 'avoiders' (this distribution was not evident in the mild TBI group). Within the moderate-to-severe group, planners had better executive function, were more reactive to stress (psychologically and physiologically), performed better on the speech task during the BPST, and had greater return to productivity. However, planners also had worse psychosocial outcomes as compared to the avoiders. This was the first study, to the author's knowledge, to examine coping behaviour during a simulated real-world stress test. Results indicate that behavioural measures of coping, such as the BPST, are more sensitive to changes in coping post TBI than are self and significant other reported questionnaires. Results also demonstrate that executive function and psychological and physiological reactivity are important factors that contribute to coping following moderate-to-severe TBI. These data raise important questions about the challenges of targeting coping through rehabilitation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of social identity, coping style and cognitive impairment, on quality of life and well-being in a group of people with head injury compared to patients with chronic pain. Design: A correlational design using sixty participants recruited from Devon was employed: thirty adults with acquired brain injuries (ABI) were recruited from a charity and thirty adults with chronic pain difficulties from a NHS pain management service. Results: Analysis showed that there was little difference between the two groups on the variables measured. The role of social identity was not associated with better psychosocial outcome or coping style. Maladaptive coping strategies were associated with poorer adjustment in the ABI group and support-seeking strategies were correlated with improved outcomes in the chronic pain group. Objective neuropsychological variables were not associated with coping style, however, a relationship was observed between maladaptive coping styles and self-reported executive functioning. Conclusions: The results add to the literature on social identity, coping and quality of life post-ABI including improved understanding of how cognitive impairment might influence the use of particular coping strategies. The findings are discussed in relation to improved interventions to increase the use of more adaptive coping strategies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is one of very few books on the topic of family adaptation and relationships after brain injury. It is an important topic because of the unique impact that such a trauma can have on families. Whether professionals are working in the community doing home visits, or working in rehabilitation and care settings where family members visit, the issues are important not just to help family members cope in adverse conditions but also to improve outcomes for the people with brain-injuries. This book will be of value to all health and social care practitioners working in the field of brain injury and chronic illness (e.g. physicians, clinical psychologists, neuro-psychologists, social workers, speech therapists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, dieticians, nurses).
