Time & Season Changes

I am simply copying my facebook post of September 9th, 2015 to have a more permanent record of what's going on and to share with my readers what goes on with changes of the time/seasons.

TBI/PTSD fact of the week....things you may not know smile emoticon Weather changes (change of seasons) and shortening of daylight hours REALLY messes with TBI/PTSD symptoms! Constant migraines, general malfunctioning of his body (clumsy, off balance, pressing wrong buttons, doing abc when he was trying to do xyz, etc). Without season/time changes he encounters these problems more randomly, say 3 to 5 times a week, not all at the same time, and usually some wrench thrown into our routine caused it. But with season/time changes these problems are persistent and happening all together. All I can do is watch, bring meds, and try to be his extra hands while leaving him alone/giving him space.
