HELP YOU NEED GUIDES FOR SURVIVORS

Help You Need is a series of guides that help people recognize, understand, and overcome common challenges after brain injury. Each guide provides background information to help people recognize the challenges they face. The Help You Need guides emphasize practical problem-solving approaches, encouraging people to rely on themselves, develop support systems, and use community resources. Information is also provided on how to avoid common mistakes that can make things worse. The Help You Need Guides for Survivors series includes:

HYN-1:  Fundamentals for Living Better after Brain Injury
HYN-2: Coping Effectively with Loss and Change
HYN-3: Effective Stress Management
HYN-4: Effective Anger Management
HYN-5: Alcohol and Drug use after Brain Injury
HYN-6: Building Relationships & Overcoming Loneliness
HYN-7: What to Tell People About Your Injury


HELP YOU NEED GUIDES FOR
FAMILIES & FRIENDS

In recognition that brain injury presents challenges not only to the patient, but also to family members and friends, a companion series of Help You Need guides was developed.

Alcohol & Drug Use: Helping Your Loved One Get Help

HYN-52:

Stress Management: A Guide for Family & Friends
