Most TBI patients do not suffer from anxiety prior to their injury. After a serious injury that affects your brain, you are bound to live in a constant state of fear that it will happen again. This fear can create anxiety in your daily life and activities.
Common symptoms of anxiety disorder may include extreme worry, shortness of breath, racing heartbeat, trouble sleeping, restlessness, and panic attacks, all of which are common symptoms that often coexist with a TBI. Experiencing these issues can make it extremely difficult to move on and attempt to heal.
