I was angry at the impact of my brain injury. I was angry at the labels and stereotypes that society placed on me. I was angry for being minimized and marginalized.
Minimized, marginalized, dismissed and discounted for what was out of my control to change. I was angry at what I was powerless to change.
But I am grateful for this anger. For this anger and frustration motivated me to make changes. Changes that helped me to begin a journey of self-acceptance.
