Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

14 Lies Your Mind Tells You to Prevent Life Changes

Hopefully your hospital psychologist is helping you with your mental needs post-stroke. If not, you'll have to flail away on your own. Mine tried to convince me that my body failed me. She was completely wrong, my body and brain were what kept me alive thru the period I was listed in critical condition.

First, the main principle: the mind wants comfort, and is afraid of discomfort and change. The mind is used to its comfort cocoon, and anytime we try to push beyond that comfort zone very far or for very long, the mind tries desperately to get back into the cocoon. At any cost, including our long-term health and happiness.
OK, with that in mind, let’s go into the excuses:

1. I can’t do it.

2. He/she can do it, but that doesn’t apply to me.

3. I need my ___.

4. Life is meant to be enjoyed.

5. I need comfort.

6. I don’t know how.

7. I can do it later.

8. One time won’t hurt.

9. I don’t feel like it.

10. I’m tired.

11. I deserve a reward/break.

12. Wouldn’t it be nice to stop?

13. The result you’re going for isn’t important.

14. I’m afraid.
