Through a series of relaxed and intimate conversations, Timothy Giles shares his deep insights and personal experiences of living with concussion. Everyone’s journey through concussion is unique but those living with concussion have much in common. Timothy’s conversations help explain the day-to-day frustrations and difficulties faced by those who have suffered a concussion and provide practical suggestions to make life easier for them, their families, friends and carers. Trainer, facilitator, broadcaster, Timothy Giles experienced two traumatic brain injuries, which, he says, added interesting and sometimes challenging elements to his life. A recent third, but milder concussion, made him realise he could help others by sharing his insights and experiences as he lives through them and finds ways to overcome challenges. So if you are living with a concussion, or supporting someone who is, find a quiet spot, relax and listen. There is help, hope and support.

Lovely podcast. I had a recent fall and have the symptoms you mentioned. I’m a clinical psychologist so I know all of what you were discussing ( also its a labile mood) but it’s nice to hear from someone who has been through it.
