Some really great tips have been suggested

🔍 Executive dysfunction is a term for the range of cognitive, emotional and behavioural difficulties which often occur after injury to the frontal lobes of the brain.

It includes some of the most common effects of brain injury and makes up a big list, including difficulty planning and carrying out activities, rigidity in thoughts and actions, poor problem solving, impulsive behaviour, mood changes, difficulties in social situations and problems with memory and attention.

❓ Are you or your loved one affected by one or more of these issues? If so, do you have any tips and strategies that help?

We know it's a big question but your answers will help us to put together an article on the subject to support all of those affected.

👏 Thank you for your time!
