Overview
Many people describe cognitive fatigue as one of the most difficult and misunderstood parts of life after a brain haemorrhage. It can affect concentration, thinking, socialising, work, and everyday activities, often in ways that are difficult to explain to other people.
This webinar will explore what cognitive fatigue is, why it can feel so frustrating and isolating, and the emotional impact it can have on confidence, identity, and daily life.
Attendees will:
-
-
-
- Better understand cognitive fatigue and how it differs from ordinary tiredness.
- Explore some of the emotional challenges that can accompany fatigue after brain haemorrhage.
- Learn how to recognise early signs of cognitive overload and develop a more compassionate understanding of their experience.
