Toolkits for coping

Feeling overwhelmed?  This goes with the caregiving territory.  There is so much to do, absorb, and cope with.  And such responsibility.  Survivors feel similar pressure trying to come to grips with frightening new realities and limitations. 

Family and friends may wish to help, but they are probably clueless.  What you really need is a mentor - someone who has been through this, who knows the ropes and who understands. 

Can a web-site mentor?  If mentoring means sharing insights from experience, offering guidance, support, encouragement...then you bet!  That's what B Independent is all about, and particularly what this Kit section is all about. 

We want to get you started right in coping with brain injury.  With tools that work.  Not everything you will need, of course, but the essentials.  Stuff geared to brain injury.  Stuff that helped us.  The "I needed this but didn't even know it" kind of stuff.  

Together with tips, stories, resource guides, important knowledge stuff.
