The long-term effects of a TBI , and the effects it can have on your work, your family and friends, are some of which can be life-changing. The purpose of a support group is to provide an environment in which members can share emotions and experiences and support one another for the mutual benefit of the total group.  Here’s how joining a group can be an important component of the rehabilitation process for both patients and their caregivers: Support Groups Help People Feel Less Isolated As family and friends move on with their lives, survivors can easily be marginalized and isolated, furthering a sense of being alone. Support groups allow people with brain injuries to see that there is a large community of brain injury organizations and people with TBI s who've had similar experiences. Sharing experiences creates opportunities for members to reali...

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a disease affected the nervous system. It is thought to be caused by an autoimmune reaction. This means it cause body's immune system to attack its own tissues. This disease starts when the immune system attacks and damages something called myelin . That’s a layer of insulation that surrounds nerves. It also helps nerves transmit their messages. Usually, weakness begins in both legs and moves up the body. GBS damages the peripheral nervous system . That’s the nerves outside the brain and spinal cord. They help the central nervous system communicate with the rest of your body, including the skin, heart, and muscles. GBS often starts a few days or weeks after an infection like the cold or flu.

The brain is complex. Disorders within the brain and nervous system can change behavior and cognitive function. Neuropsychology is the study of relationships of brain–behavior. On theoretical basis it aims at understanding the relationships between the brain, on the one side and the mind and behavioral control, on the other. It is a complex field of study, relating various fields like neurology, psychology, psychiatry, clinical neurosciences, physiology and statistics.  In the majority of psychiatric disorders focal brain lesions are rare. The real challenge of neuropsychology in relation to psychiatry is to understand abnormal behavior in terms of dysfunctional processing of information. This is related to abnormally functioning brain systems than to localized brain damage.   Neuropsychology has led to the advanced study of psychiatric disorder over past decades. It is now seen as an essential discipline for the study of psychiatric disorder. This improvem...
