Tune in to learn about the link between physical brain injuries and mental health, and how TBIs affect a child's brain. From the biological differences between men and women that predispose women to more severe symptoms, to how toxic masculinity is shaming men into silence about their own struggles, this episode contains a wealth of information. We wrap up with an overview of how other underlying conditions can affect your perception of your symptoms, and how emotions and brain injuries are closely linked.
