Answers:
He sounds like he has Traumatic Brain Injury also. My ex went through a similar thing.

The best you can do is be there for him. He going to go through many emotions including anger, it may be directed at you but know he's just lashing out at any target. Give him his space when needed and start educating yourself on what his recovery is going to be like.

If he does have TBI, please read up on as much of it as possible. TBI changes a person. As for the blindness, my ex was almost blind with his accident and then his sight got better. I hope this is the case for your friend. With a head injury there is no telling when the person is done recovering.

I wish him all the best.Health Question & Answer

He is probably not ready for the following, so print/save to favorites, or bookmarks. He needs professional therapy, as well as your continued support, which won't be easy on you. Sometimes vision returns, as the brain recovers, but I wouldn't want him to hold out hope, so I wouldn't tell him, unless the doctors don't know the cause, in which case I'd try professional hypnotherapy, if pyschosomatic in origin. ~~~ "If you can't deal with it by using one of the techniques, such as counting backwards from 20, to 1, (and prevent yourself from making yourself angry, in the first place) is important to express that anger appropriately, at the time, and to the person who caused it, if possible, or immediately afterwards. If not, maybe by walking away later, and bellowing your rage and/or frustration. In some situations, such as work, or school, it might be better to cover your mouth with a cupped hand, bandanna/handkerchief, or use the crook of your elbow, to muffle the sound. Some people find that it helps to journal those thoughts, and emotions soon afterwards.

Anger, which is repressed, rather than healthily expressed, tends to fester, and later may cause explosive fits of rage, or depression. Let yourself feel the burning energy of that anger, and imagine it, as vividly as possible, as a hot flame cleansing you. It can help to have someone you can talk to. For more physically inclined people, a punching bag, or hitting your pillow, can be an effective release mechanism: visualise, as vividly as you can, that you are striking back at the cause of that anger. "But next time, when you get mad, just remember this quote: 'Those who anger you, conquer you.' It's basically saying that when you give someone the power to make you mad, or let it get to you, it's like they're controlling you.

When I realized that, it made me mad, so I try to control my anger and not let people see it. You can still control your anger without being walked all over. You just have to draw a line." Try saying to yourself, in your mind: "I am fire! I am ice!". Repeat for as long as it takes for you to calm down sufficiently. Anger management is addressed in much more detail than can be included here, in section 4, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris and practice daily, one of the relaxation methods in section 2, 2.c. 11, or 2.i

A variant of Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing therapy, which has been used successfully for those people suffering from anxiety: it is easily learned, quick to use, yet can be very effective, is on page N, of section 6, and I use it before the relaxation techniques, because I have found that it makes them quicker to employ, and more effective. These will enable you to emotionally centre yourself, when practiced regularly". http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris Health Question & Answer

Wow, I can totally understand why he would have a lot of anger. Hopefully, he's seeking therapy to help him deal with his anger and to physically rehabilitate himself. He's suffered a huge loss, and needs to learn how to adjust.

What you can do is be there for him. Let him know that you're there to listen, and try not to get angry with him if he expresses his anger. Don't abandon him. Try not to treat him too much differently than you did before he was beat up. If you try too hard, he may think that your friendship is now only out of sympathy. But mostly just be there for him. Let him know that he can count on you to be his friend no matter what.Health Question & Answer
