She needs to get evaluated. She had injury and twice surgery. What parts of brain got damaged. What working part of brain affected by those surgery and injury needs to be evaluated. On that basis you can be advised to help your patient. The worst part is that here in this country we don't have rehabilitation clinic where a team of neurosurgeon, neurologist, psychiatrist, psychologist speech therapist, occupational therapist and physiotherapist work as team. So you can get some symptomatic relief by medicine suggested by neurosurgeon and psychiatrist.

Hello practo user Your mother needs counselling session. which will help her in long way

Hello! It sounds like your mother may be experiencing symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) coupled with issues related to self-esteem and low confidence. Please note that the above mentioned terms are not an official diagnosis. They are merely a suggestion for you to understand your mother’s situation. For you to get a confirmed diagnosis and deeper insight into your mother’s condition, you must consult a mental health professional like a psychologist or a psychiatrist. These professionals will not only provide you with a proper diagnosis, but also help you and your mother figure out why she often feels lost and low. If your prior consultations with psychiatrists have not gone well, look for new ones and start by asking them to not prescribe medicines just yet, as she has already been on them, but has not seen any improvement. Help your mother open up and try to understand herself why she feels the way she does. Help her believe that she truly matters and is loved by her near and dear ones. There are a lot of organizations that provide affordable and/or free therapy sessions, with various offers you can avail. Look for ones with practitioners that may suit your preferences and see if that works. Your mother needs a lot of love and understanding on your part, but she also needs to realize that she is important and cherished not because of her role as a mother or wife, but as a person. Take care of her and yourself and stay safe!

u are right she need proper counselling session To boost her low confidence level it is needed

Hi I appreciate that you reach out with your concern With the information you have provided I'm finding your mother is a warrior...who not only recovered towards normalcy but also contributing in house hold chores....hats off to her As for her poor self worth and hopelessness.... negative thinking.... I can say she is facing mental health concern Needs proper diagnosis with Psychologist... Cognitive Behaviour Therapy will help

Hi... Did Doctors (Psychiatrist/Neurosurgeon) gave any physiological basis of her present condition? Or is it purely Cognitive? Or mix of both? I believe in her case, Medication and Therapy/Counselling will go side-by-side. I suggest Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to address her concerns.

I agree reprogramming will. Be useful to gain back confidence.. I suggest her to seek a psychological Counselor for a therapy..
