Abstract | Proper brain functioning is responsible for our feelings, behavior, and thinking. However, an injury to the brain can disrupt brain function, which can affect our emotions and behaviors. A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be a one-time severe injury to the brain, or repeated, milder injuries. Scientists have observed that, after TBI, people are frequently sad and have difficulty concentrating. These symptoms are referred to as post-traumatic depression (PTD). PTD can affect school performance and daily activities. It is therefore important to notice any signs of PTD. If signs of PTD are present, individuals should seek help from a professional. PTD is treatable and, with adequate treatment, individuals with PTD can gradually recover their normal functioning |
