Its also strongly suspected that Henry experienced a traumatic brain injury when he was injured in the tournament and it has been suggested that that, paired with the constant pain from his leg injury and his gout could have exacerbated and amplified his behaviours, considering prior to this he was reported to be pleasant and charming. The historians I've seen discussing this aren't excusing his behaviour but its considered without the head injury he might "just" have been a tyrannical bastard king as opposed to the absolute monster hes generally considered to have become

Oh that's very interesting! Thank you!

Huge huge bad luck for everyone concerned that the TBI triggered that behaviour in him if it did, given, I mean, all the TBI survivors I've met are awesome! But I know it can vary a lot in its effects, and that plus everything else...

Post S3 Billy lives AU except the Mindflayer’s control cause traumatic brain injury which results in Post-Traumatic Epilepsy. (read more about pte here)

before I start just want to clarify that most of these are based on MY personal journey with epilepsy, and it may look different for other people 🤷‍♀️

some hcs:

He lives with Steve after he wakes up from the coma, bc he couldn’t go back to living with Neil. How the hell would he explain anything? He’s drowning in NDAs that say he can’t talk about any of it, but Steve already knows. Plus big empty house = perfect.

The first seziure doesn’t happen until about 2 weeks after everything’s calmed down. He’s just going about his morning routine, eating breakfast, when he blacks out. The next thing he knows is some random dude in a paramedic uniform asking stupid ass questions like “What’s his name” and “Who’s the president”. He’a able to answer most of them, but they still take him to the hospital.

Cue four weeks of various MRIs and EEGs (who knew there was a 48-hour EEG where he had to take home a weird looking tv thing?) He’s diagnosed with PTE and put on a new anticonvulsant. They also transfer his primary care to someone whose actually in the know about the UD, and it starts to kind of work as a form of therapy since he has to go once every month at first.

Steve becomes UNBEARABLE after his diagnosis. Any sudden noises Billy makes result in a frantic and terrified Steve barging in and asking if he’s okay (no matter where Billy is, including the bathroom).

They learn about absence seziures and wham. Suddenly any time Billy spaces out thinking about something, whether it’s a car problem he’s trying to fix or disassociating after a nightmare, Steve instantly thinks he’s having a seizure and yelling at Billy. Eventually they come to an understanding, Billy acknowledging that it’s Steve’s way of expressing his care, while Steve learns to calm his reactions to just a verbal confirmation.

Billy has to sell his Camaro. It was a really depressing moment but he’s not legally allowed to drive it and won’t be anytime soon, so it’s not worth the upkeep. He cried for two nights straight.

The most embarrassing moment of Billy’s life is the first time he has a seizure in front of the kids. He’s worried he’s traumatised the poor kids who’ve already gone through so much. Until Dustin makes a stupid joke and everyone laughs it off.

He still does pull Max aside and talk to her personally because she’s taking it the hardest. He’s embarrassed so it starts off aggressive as hell, just all blustering and “Don’t treat me like fucking glass Maxine, I’m fucking fine.” But after they scream at each other for a minute, Max just starts… sobbing, and Billy realizes that “oh shit she really does actually care” It’s the real turning point in their relationship (although they have a long way to go)

He never really goes into a like ‘remission’ period, but he learns what will push him over the edge. No weed (he’s a little sad, but he finds he doesn’t need the escape as much now that Neil isn’t there). He gets sleep and eats regularly. Absolutely NO flashing lights (even slower ones tend to give him at least a migraine). Diligently takes his meds everyday. He’s never 100% seziure free, but the time between them grows until it’s been years between them.

He gets an alert dog, and it gives him a little more comfort. He’d been crashing on Steve’s couch for a while because everyone’s scared of him living alone, but he used the money from selling the Camaro to purchase a golden retriever named Fitz because the agency has a terrible sense of humor.

Max is constantly coming up with new stupid metaphors for having a seizure. The top one is still currently “his brain deciding to do the worm for no reason.”

Once the time between seizures goes from months to years, he’s able to get his license again and he packs up a small picnic, gets Fitz in Steve’s mom van, and goes to the Quarry for the first time in a long time. The peace is nice.

My partner's dad passed away today a little before 7 pm.

The doctors revealed at the last minute that he was going to pass away even without the brain injury he got the other day because he had been unknowingly living with necrosis of his digestive system for months. They assumed that it was either from his cancer, chemo, or both, but it was causing him immense pain for a long time.

I'm so mad at the healthcare system because they didn't give him enough help. This could have been prevented if his doctors had listened to him about being in pain and checked his stomach, before his organs started shutting down. Instead he drank himself into a coma to cope with it.

I'm crying more than my partner is. He's just glad he was there when his dad passed. It's been such a rough ass day...

imagine how smart Bruce would be if he didn't get hit in the head all the time. "Lex Luthor is the smartest man on Earth--" "Tony Stark is--" right but if Bruce is holding his own up there AND he's been playing fast and loose with TBIs for a few years, that ranking is flawed.

#fun fact #if you're smart enough before getting some TBIs #the damage isn't even measurable bc your brain makes up for a lot of the injury #so all the tests basically say oh well you're prob fine? #bruce wayne #batman #dc #tw discussion of injuries #tw injury #lex luthor #tony stark #dc comics #Bruce: gets another concussion #leslie throwing her hands up: he's probably gonna be fine

In the bifrost incident, the was no eldrich gods or and of the body horror. Everyone was just high off there asses with like a chemical leak.

Yeah, the reason the train was a burnt husk is because eventually some idiot lit a fire. The chemicals got all on the black box and made Lyf hallucinate

On that note. Neverever do “one last time seeing each other” with a dangerous ex, it will not go well, especially if you aren’t in public with at least one other person with you. If an abusive man wants to see you one last time in private he is hoping it’s the last time anyone will see you

#misogynistic violence tw #I. don’t mean tbis ina lecturing way i mean it in an urgent and caring way #it is so scary how abusive men will manipulate women into walking into that

no I'm not still thinking about tbi thor what are you talking about

[image description: a digital drawing of thor from the bifrost incident. he is a heavy set white man carrying a metal rod, implied to be the handle of a large hammer. he has gray blue eyes and wavy blond hair braided back on the viewers right side and loose everywhere else. he has a lightning patterned tattoo on his left arm and three piercings on each pointed ear. he wears a white button up shirt and a dark gray vest, both of which are torn in places and have blood on them. he has three cuts on his cheek and a few more on one arm and his stomach. he is looking at the viewer with an angry or determined look. end image description.]
