Traumatic Brain Injury (from physical bullying) and Hypopituitarism

[dreamingdream]

Traumatic Brain Injury can lead to hypopituitarism several years later. I think I am a victim of this. I had a Traumatic Brain Injury from physical school bullying, I went to victim support and reported this 12 years ago when I was a child under 18. Now I have hypopituitarism several years later as an adult. I am on medications and this condition is depressing me.

I'm so sorry this has happened to you, it's shocking and thank you for sharing the link and helping to increase awareness.

If you want to talk more about your feelings and depression I would maybe repost on another part of Mumsnet, this one is mainly parents seeking advice / talking about their children being bullied. There are some good sections of Mumsnet like Mental Health and you may even have ptsd from what happened? There will definitely be other mumsnetters who could relate and be supportive if you want to talk about? I'd suggest the mental health section but there are others you may also get a response on I just can't remember their names off the top of my head
