WHY A SUPPORT GROUP

The purpose of a support group is to learn more about brain injury and available services by meeting with others who are facing or have faced similar challenges. The essential elements of a support group are:

Gather information
Share common needs and strengths
Provide a place to meet new friends and find new connections in the community
Provide a safe place to find courage and take risks
Provide an opportunity to socialize
Provide an environment where positive and negative views can be expressed without being judged

When I told professor Gibbs (anyone thinking of NCIS right now?) about this, he suggested me keeping a journal of it and writing down what I was doing to control the spasms and what onsets I had that enabled to me to realize I was going to have muscle spasms. The cool thing is even when I get mad, my left arm won't give me any feelings of muscle spasms an… Continue

What can I expect here?

What can I expect here on this Survivor Network for my support group? What kinds of support can I get from here? Can I helps others as they will help me? This is a fantastic web site that brings together like-minded individuals that have a certain goal in mind; that goal is to get better. God's plan ( or whatever faith or religion base you believe in, even a higher power) is there, when one door closes, many other doors open around you and you have to see them to go though. I saw these doors ope… Continue
