Description
BEFORE THE MASK SLIPS
Matthew's psychiatric diagnosis was rendered in very short order. After all, there had been historical documentation dating back to age 11 for him. Intermittent Explosive Disorder? Psychopathy? Sociopathic tendencies? Borderline Personality Disorder?
OR, none of the above?
There's invariably some psychiatric diagnosis attached to TBI, whether primary or secondary... but did "they" get it right? What if this was actually something very, very different? Was it a psychiatric diagnosis of convenience, or was he truly a psychopath? Did underlying, unconsidered contingencies of paradoxical-reactive medications and addictions contribute to violent psychosis with partial or complete amnesia?
Just how much will a mother risk to protect, promote, and advocate for her son? BEFORE THE MASK SLIPS narrates a hard, raw ride through bizarre realms of relentless advocacy for a brain-injured young man with a complex psyche.
The Tale of Two Psyches series is intended to forewarn and clarify the possibilities that lurk under the surface of any TBI survivor. This true story is for survivors, families, caretakers, social workers, corrections personnel, and law enforcement, alike.
Two psyches... Hindsight is unquestionably 20/20.
