Even now things just seem to fall out of my mouth that come out the wrong way. You’re doing well to “withdraw” when you can’t be sure if your message will come out right ?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[yes yes yes.  I&#039;m not as talkative as I used to be which makes my hubby question if I&#039;m mad at him (nope...just withdrawing so I don&#039;t say something inappropriate)  And I have to carefully edit (5-6 times) anything I write or type so as to prevent me from causing unintentional ill will.  Life in the slow lane.....everything takes so much longer to do now, and only 1 thing at a time.]]></description>

I definitely think it&#039;s a plus. Society has made men feel like they should not talk about these things, that only girls do that. But internalising things is one of the reasons suicide rates are higher in men than women. So I hope more guys take a leaf from your book.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am a TBI survivor of 2002.  And I know about the &quot;filter&quot; being gone.  I have seen other TBI survivors, especially men, who have had to learn how to filter their anger.  I guess it is a testosterone thing.  I am another male with the same usual male hormones, but my filter has not resulted in anger issues.  Instead, I had difficulty filtering out personal thoughts that men usually do not disclose.  My male friends accept me for what I am.  My filter has recovered somewhat, but my revelations about my thoughts that men usually do not feel comfortable talking about, has resulted in more openness about emotions among my friends.  I accept this as a plus side of my TBI.  I have learned to feel gratitude for what I still have.  Life is funny sometimes.]]></description>

I&#039;m glad it helps to know that others do understand what it&#039;s like to have these things jump out of you before you realise that it will unintentionally hurt the other person.

thanks, you are so clear how it feels like when you know you cannot say it because then you will regret it...the worst thing is I can hurt the other, snd I then apologize.  Nobody interested in understanding these type of tiny changes but it has been so important to understand how I react, and what the different feelings are..it takes time  but it allows you to improve, helps all these type of information, thanks]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[At some point in my life, having been extremely introverted, I learnt to speak my mind and just express myself.  Having been diagnosed a few years back with Hydrocephalus, and undergoing surgery to treat it, I suppose I&#039;ve become fearless in more ways than one.  This is one of the reasons why I blog at Skyewaters.com.  
I never really thought about having a filter and how I&#039;ve used/use it.  
This post is insightful.  Thanks for sharing.]]></description>
