I hope you recover from this, mate. You seem to have a well intentioned character. You'll only come out stronger and more grateful once you fight yourself out of this.

 

[RagnarokIV]

All of GAF love you and are here for you, so never be barned.

 

[MudoSkills]

Well, now I feel bad for making fun of you all the time.

The mother of a friend of mine was diagnosed with Wernicke–Korsakoff syndrome. Not sure if that's the type of ARBD you have but she's doing a lot better after getting treatment so hopefully whatever treatment plan they have for you has a similar impact. You've got this.

I pray you get better, man. I know you're dealing with a lot with that! Prayers up!

5 Ways to Encourage Veins to Dilate for Better Circulation

Discover 5 easy ways to encourage veins to dilate naturally and boost blood flow for healthier circulation.

pay attention to temperature around u too in colder weather. Wear layers and insulating jacket if u need to help maintain core heat its easier to leak heat from ur core this will cause more blood to flow there and constrict blood vessels away from ur core you'll have more brain fog. sometimes u want that to happen though its easier for me to fall asleep when its cooler and you'll also start using more body fat for heat to keep ur vital organs warm. usually burns slowly but little by little it adds up over time just taking daily walks in cooler weather or sitting in cooler weather letting heat slowly leak from ur core will help u burn fat if thats ur goal. if ur stuck in side put on the air conditioner and have a fan blowing at you wear a breathable cotton shirt. Warm up and Dilate ur blood vessels when u need to focus/think and cool down/send more blood to ur core when it’s time to sleep

I was badly beaten around 15 years ago including several kicks to the back and side of my head (by a dude who could kick hard to say the least) and suffered some brain damage. Probably not the same as you but I can relate. My entire life changed, had trouble controlling my emotional state, thinking clearly, etc.

I think it changed me forever but I did get a lot “better” over the years. Hang in there.

I encourage you to drink water.

 

[Dirk Benedict]

I encourage you to drink water.

This. Drink water, cut sugars, take vitamins with some of your meals. You'll see a vast improvement. Try implementing vitamin MK7 to your diet, as a start.

Can i ask how you knew you had it or the symptoms of it? A member of my extended family goes on extreme 5-10 day binges at a time (and often) and has for several years and I it seems like its impacting their life. They seem to forget things, can be somewhat irrational, lie all the time, and results to an almost infantile like persona where (they are 50) they want everyone (their younger sisters) to come and "take care of them", refuse to take any kind of responsibility for their actions but at other times that are a perfectly normal, and rather pleasant, person.

How did you "know" about it?

I think I've heard that if you get hit badly in the front of the head you can get problems with inhibition and spiral into uncontrollable behaviour. Glad to hear you've gotten better. I've been thinking that it's maybe for the best that I get a bicycle helmet despite it looking oh so dorky.
